I know the thread is geared toward Hurst, but Mixon in the open field is the underutilized resource. Screens with Cappa or Collins getting a full head of steam leads to Mixon getting mismatches. Chase and Higgins are good blockers down field too. The short passes to Mixon and Hurst will slowly bleed the defense leading to the occasional HR ball to Higgins or Chase.
Hurst will get plenty of PT and looks, but his run and pass blocking will be critical for this offense.
Chris Evans could be used in this manner as well. As far as Hurst goes, I can't wait to see him run the TE screen, but with Cappa and Collins leading the way.
