[QUOTE="Legal Jacket, post: 170570, member: 601"] Navy was already playing the same teams Tech was playing, so that actually cuts the other way (CPJ has better players at Tech than he does at Navy, while playing a lot of the same teams). Compare the increase in blocking ability (particularly using OUR style of blocking) with who would play OL or AB for us in the pros (e.g. Spiller and McCoy), with the beastial OLBs and DEs you find on nearly every team in the pro game. It's not close. WRs just don't get that much better at blocking in the pros (although I agree they do to a certain extent) and the ABs certainly wouldn't get better. In fact, I think their effectiveness would drastically go down as the edge defensive players would be exponentially more adept at getting off cut blocks. That's the key thing to me - I don't see ABs being able to consistently cut block stud LBs and DBs at the next level. [/QUOTE]
