[QUOTE="33jacket, post: 225615, member: 628"] IMO we have trouble finding good fits at tackles and we used TE's because of what we ask our tackles to do. This is a scheme dictated a certain need at tackle; we can't execute our scoops using a big pillow fighter at tackle. For instance. A guy like Devine, if he lost a tad of weight, is a tackle everywhere but GT. To me, we struggle with the OL more than just recruiting. I think we can tweak our scheme we use on the lines, to be more line friendly, and recruiting friendly...and it would help the tackles. We haven't...9 years in, it appears we wont'. Which is fine, its pauls' call...so now we just live with this OL system and appearance...its been a decade folks... Despite this; we continually have OL issues; every year it seems. But our O is very productive. One reason why is the option is a half the field play...the reality is, the backside OL and WR can totally screw up and we can still successfully execute the option on the playside. Another is the scheme relies a ton on ball fakes and not blocking certain individuals anyway. So the OL is neutralized a bit. Which is why perimeter, AB And WR execution in the run game is so critical. They are an extension of the OL. Its true. Where you really see the OL deficiencies, both in scheme and fit, is pass pro.... [/QUOTE]
