He's also a decent pass catcher so we can still call pass plays from the same formations he'd be in on. I'm not saying using him will fix our rushing offense, but it surely will help, right?

Good, because Neal is the most overrated FB ever.

Only ever blocked for consistent 1,000 yard rushers, WHO RUSHED FOR THOSE NUMBERS EVEN WITHOUT HIM and the 2 (or 3, it may have been) years where he blocked for crappy RBs, they did dick all.

Jeremi Johnson, on the other hand, was an absolutely phenomenal blocking FB; really wish we had him for more years.

EDIT: Forgot, he was a nobody playing like crap in NO, for the first 4 years of his career.
