What we really need at the fullback position is someone like the Redskins have in Mike Sellers. A 6-3 285 pound monster who can block like an extra lineman, and also catch the ball if necessary. Not someone who wets his pants at the sight of an 8 man front.

Last I checked, Tony G is a tight end, not an H-back.
The reason Saunders wanted Wilson was to have another big bodied receiver to create mismatches.
When this happens, it works out beautifully (i.e. play number uno yesterday). The problem is Huard hadn't been looking off his receivers, nor has he had much time to do so.
Hopefully with Brodie Croyle, the ball will be spread around the field more consistently.
Only time will tell.
