\t\t\tDid Cade Otton Cure Himself Of The Dropsies?
\nMarch 8th, 2026 <\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Not special but solid in many areas.<\/p>\n

Joe has been clear about being torn when it comes to Bucs tight end Cade Otton.<\/p>\n

Joe wants a more explosive tight end like Michael Trigg. But the more Joe reads about Otton, the more Joe might be a little off base.<\/p>\n

Zachary Pereles of CBS believes Otton is Steady Eddie. Despite bouts of dropsies and garish turnovers (hold onto the ball!), Otton is normally a reliable, diverse tight end. Not special in anything, but solid in many things.<\/p>\n

You know what you\u2019re getting with Cade Otton. Each of the last three seasons, he averaged between 9.7 and 10.2 yards per catch, and caught between 68% and 73% of his targets, and each of the last two seasons, he caught exactly 59 passes. He is a complementary piece in the passing game, more steady than explosive but still with hints of downfield and after-catch production. He had a career-low two drops last season.<\/p>\n

Otton\u2019s drop in drops is a good sign. Joe is curious to see how new Bucs offensive coordinator Zac Robinson might use Otton. Joe really believes he can stretch the field a whole lot more than he has.<\/p>\n

If the Bucs keep Otton, it should not prevent Bucs AC\/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht from selecting Trigg on the second day of the draft.<\/p>\n

Or \u2014 gasp! \u2014 Kenyon Sadiq at No. 15?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Did Cade Otton Cure Himself Of The Dropsies?
