Just because a player lines up as a FB does not make him a FB. You can put Boyle in the spot where a FB would line up doesn't mean he is.

Should I have put him at TE and put FB in parentheses to indicate that I think he's a TE who's going to be used in the FB position?

The "true" FB the Packers had was officially changed to TE.

I said a long time ago that a TE can line up in the FB position. Still doesn't make him a FB. He's still a TE playing another position. If you want to call him a FB, I really don't care. Do it.

I think the only reason they changed the FB was because they changed the depth chart to get rid of the FB all together.

Delontae Scott is still listed as a DL, even though at 6'5", 246lbs, he's thinner than some SS. I believe Scott is an OLBer with the Packers.

I call him a TE that plays the FB position. Just as I slotted him in the original post. Still not sure why all the hassle about it.

Maybe, but they got rid of the FB and added a 3rd starting WR role instead.

  • speed enough to be a threat down field
  • and brains enough to know most of the offense[/list].Although, he can play fullback, most are too tall to be ideally suited for that position.
  • In a pinch, which almost happened Sunday, fill in on the O-line.In a sense, he is the decathlete of the offense.

    beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
