I don't know man, you're trying to make this as simple as if Gadsden is bigger than a guy he should be able to not just block them effectively, but do it so well that it creates a complete mismatch and takes the defender completely out of the play. And I'm just skeptical for two reasons. First, we've had all kind of guys on our offensive line, whose primary job is to block, not block all that great against guys that were smaller than them. And second, we've never really actually seen Gadsden block. It's not a big part of what he's asked to do. And I think that's fine, because he's exceptionally good at getting to open spaces on the field and catching passes. Which for us, is a rare skill. So let's just do that.

Why can't we just do that? Why do we have to pretend Gadsden is a tight end doing traditional tight end things like blocking? Why can't we say to the defense, you have to be ready to stop this guy who's going to be a first or second day NFL draft pick from gashing you down the field, every play? Have fun with that, defense.

Why can't we just do that?
