Like Ebron, Eifert has had a rocky career, but rather than a lack of ability, it is injuries that has derailed his time in the NFL thus far. When healthy, Eifert is one of the more talented TEs in the league.

While keeping him on the field will always be a risk going forward, his past injury history will keep Eifert cheap should Washington pursue him. If you are part of the camp that believes an injury-prone player like this will always stay injured, then it’s fine to want to pass. But if you think that Eifert’s tides can change along with Ron Rivera and the Redskins, this could be a huge pick-up for Washington.
