The premise of exposing the coverage you have described with this concept is sound and most offenses will attempt to do so. However defenses change and disguise coverage. What may look like a cover 3 could be a blitz, and often a play like you described will end in a sack or int if the right blitz is called.

This is why offenses game plan and mix up deep routes with short medium and running plays. Basic offensive game planning 101...

That is why you run different plays out of the same formation, build in different hots, and run this same play/concept out of other formations.

This play additionally could be a zone-read PA, in which there is only 1 wr out to the side, trips right, and a RB in the backfield and the passing concept is built into the zone-read run, something that quite a few spread teams in college do (OK State specifically).
