I'm excited about Wilson at FB
 

While he will never be T-Rich, but he could great in his own way.

True H Backs are hard as hell to defend, especially when matched with a running back like LJ who can catch the ball as well. Wilson could be a better version of Larry Centers.

Anyone else excited?

yeah....totally ecstatic

yay!

I have no confidence in Herm/Solari using him creatively/effectively.

My enthusiasm is tempered by the possibility that our O-line may continue to be "consistent".

To be honest I am excited.

I think he can be a legit weapon in the passing game out of the backfield. He might have the best hands on the team and playing FB should allow him to get some favorable matchups against LBs and safetys.

I actually agree with you... Wilson really has shown a fair amount of ability, but for some reason hasn't been able to get on the field. That may be because of his "tweener" status, but yeah I'm kind of excited about seeing him on a consistent basis. Hopefully he'll show us why we spent a second round draft pick on him.

It's unfortunate that we are forced to unveil Project X before the planned launch in the playoffs.

LOL!
discuss

Finally, Kris is getting his shot!

I agree with both of you-

Wilson is a great thread and from what we have seen is very physical and can get some good seperation-.

But I do know why we spent a 2nd rounder on him- Tony G is in his 30's and could get hurt at anytime - if we want to stay consistant in the Passing game by using the TE like we do then he was good insurance for Tony G just like LJ was for Holmes

Said in Michael Scott's voice:

"SECRET WEAPOOOOOOOOOOON!"

Can he block?

Unveiling the secret weapon vs. Dolts...

hope it doesn't backfire.

This is the biggest question. I think he will be fine pass blocking, but I want to know if he can run block. I woudl think he would add a lot of speed when LT runs wide on a sweep.
