On a busy Thursday, the Falcons announced the signing of two veteran tight ends. Former Broncos TE Jacob Tamme and former Chiefs/Seahawks TE Tony Moeaki
Tamme, 30, had 86 receptions in three years with the Denver Broncos. Tamme has always been a pass catching tight end, however had playing time taking away in 2013 and 2014 due to the emergence of Julius Thomas. Tamme had played with Peyton Manning for seven season and will now get a chance to play with another great QB in Matt Ryan.
Moeaki, 27, only appeared in six games with 134 yards and one touchdown last season in Seattle. Moeaki is athletic and can catch, the main issue will be to see if he can stay healthy.
While the Falcons haven’t found a Tony Gonzalez replacement just yet, they added good depth with these two signings and will probably find another in the draft.
