[QUOTE="Techster, post: 223495, member: 360"] CPJ has always had the freak WR (the one who takes the top off the defense) on one side (think Stephen Hill, Demaryius Thomas, Deandre Smelter...and now Jeune is developing into that role) and the solid blocker/possession WR type on the other side (think Michael Summer, Tyler Melton). It may be more a function of personnel, as I'm sure if Demarius and Deandre were playing at the same time, they'd both start. The point is, CPJ has a role for the guys who are fundamentally strong at WR (blocks well, knows their assignments, can catch when thrown their way, etc.). I think Brad Stewart will be a good mix between a very strong WR threat and a fundamentally sound WR...the happy medium between the two roles. The thing is, the skill positions are beginning to get a loaded...and that's a good thing for us. You'll start seeing more and more guys like MLD get lost in the shuffle because we're so deep at every skill position. IMO, MLD was a very good AB, and he would have been a better one as the years went by. It's just we have a LOT of talent at AB, BB (his original position he was recruited for), and WR will become that way very soon. As some have stated, redshirting is probably the best option for MLD at this point. Don't forget, Searcy started off at WR his RS year, and is now an AB. You just never know with this offense. MLD has value at 3 positions, and he'll be a good player. We just don't know where his final stop will be yet. [/QUOTE]
