I could agree with you but then we’d both be wrong.

I’m not going to fall for your Hayden Fryesque logic.

Next thing you’ll be running stand up TEs at me.

sorry, but have you ever seen a TE being used in a jet sweep? doesn't make sense now, doesn't make sense then, doesn't make sense ever

I remember this one from back in the day:

Had he been tackled in the backfield it would have been a HORRIBLE play call.

Dillon Doyle (6-foot-3, 227 pounds)

That's not a lot of sand in the bucket for a MLB...especially for a BigTen MLB. Their primary task is to plug gaps and stuff the run game, correct?

I realize he has a world-class strength coach for a father, and that probably means he has much better functional strength than your typical frosh, but at the end of the day mass overcomes strength. A 320 lb OL bearing down on a 227 lb LB, the LB is going to lose, and lose badly. Same goes for a 250 lb TE or even a 245 lb FB. Without lots of playing experience at this level of competition, I'm worried about this situation.
