I’m not saying Sample can’t do it, but from the scouting reports that doesn’t seem like a good fit for him. He seems like more of a traditional person inline TE. But, the traditional inline TE doesn’t seem to be what Taylor is looking for. Or is it? That’s why I asked about Taylor’s use of a TE, FB, or H back.
The TE usually does not play a big receiving role in the offense that Taylor has used here and with the Rams. But I am thinking that he might tweak that a bit to help Burrow.
Some people act like we are going to completely re-design our offense to mirror what Burrow ran at LSU. I don't think that is true. But in general rookie QBs like having a dependable TE or a slot receiver that works underneath like Housh did when we did not throw to our TEs as much.
