Battle Royal: Staff Writers Analyze Options For Open Fullback Position
http://www.dallascowboys.com/news/2...riters-analyze-options-open-fullback-position




What’s the Issue:

It appears the Cowboys will have a different fullback on the roster this year – one way or another. They have yet to re-sign veteran Tyler Clutts, who remains a free agent on the market. That nearly occurred last season as well, but the Cowboys decided to bring him back after two veteran additions didn’t pan out. So far, this offseason has seen the team attempt to move players from other positions to the fullback spot.

Running back Rod Smith, who is the older brother of second-round draft pick Jaylon Smith, has now moved to fullback, although at 6-3, he won’t have the traditional look of the position. He’ll also probably handle the ball more than previous fullbacks in this system, considering his hands and ball-skills...

That has to be the downsized and dumbed up version of what an offensive tool the fullback position has the chance of returning to....some really low scale sexual indicator there.

Never thought about Rod Smith at Fullback to be honest, although he at least offers some type of threat in the passing game. Thought he weighed more than 226lb. Guess we may see him bigger by TC?

Unless he can impress at fullback, and become a key ST player, dunno if we'll keep a fullback this year.

I can't recall if the Commanders had a true fullback when they ran the ZBS with Morris.
And, I don't think EE ran behind a fullback at OSU
