Since he never catches a pass, the defense doesn’t have to account for him so his blocking isn’t really a factor. As someone said earlier, when he is in the game it’s clear we are most likely going to run the ball.
Kind of like running play action without ever actually running the ball. Nobody is going to fall for it, so there is no point in doing it.
Yeah kind of a point I was about to make that yeah again he was a bad pick in 2. But I think he can be a contributor if we use him correctly. I think he should be getting some targets if only to make defenses account for him and he has reliable hands and he gets up field quickly after the catch. He also has his moments blocking but needs to be put in favorable spots.
