that Croom knowing Henderson's father played a role in giving the kid a scholarship. He also knew Jonathan Lowe's daddy, but you could make the
argument that Lowe was worth it. Is there anybody else?

which may be a good thing, because Hurst's little brother is a beast of an OL, getting offers from ND and others - see article on BDJ.
Run blocking is, without a doubt, my biggest concern on this team. I think we will find some good DE's. I think our pass blocking will be sufficient. Our WR's will be no worse than last year. But, run-blocking is a concern. I hope that Brignone makes a difference here, because I think he will be more of a road-grader than Anderson was. Sherrod will be fine. Strauder is overrated (especially in the run game) and I really dont know Gates' strengths, but I sincerely doubt that it is pulling. Losing Butler and Dez. Sherrod will be hurt our blocking big time. Kind of makes me wish that we had Addison Lawrence at TE - it is not like the other teams are going to be gameplanning against the receiving threats of Henderson/Green/Hurst anyway. Might as well put a Reggie Kelly type in there and run 6 OL's.

That is exactly who I was thinking of, even as I typed Reggie Kelly. Oh well - Reggie was a hell of a blocker too - but this is what you call a
run-blocker...

Reggie was a QB in high school I think that Watkins was a guard.

is used as a tight end in two tight sets. Or at least I noticed that at the last scrimmage.

"We got Addison Lawrence playing some tackle and he is also out tight end in our short-yardage package. Then we put him in there today at guard and he is
smart enough to do that. Having a swing guy like that gives us some depth."
