Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 879768">You know, for all the yada yada about a run heavy offense, does it occur to anybody that if that's they way they roll, with this offensive line, you'll need a lot of good run blocking from the TEs.  Sternberger is not that.  I question how many snaps he'd actually get under that questionable scenario.  Even Tonyan's a better blocker.  And while we talk about Deguara as an H-back in the backfield, there would not be all that many snaps in that role.  He could be the go-to guy in-line, the other half of the H in H-back.  People don't spend 3rd. round picks on fullbacks.  It might surprise some that Lewis had a 45% snap count last year.  He's back.Regardless if it's run-heavy or not, with a "big slot" approach to that position, the position I expected to be Funchess' primary role, that could be Sternberger.  There certainly isn't anybody else one could clearly point to as the odds on favorite in that role.  And he'll be the 4th. best blocking TE in what is likely to be a 4 TE group unless they missed the mark on Deguara by a wide margin.</blockquote>
