Reminds me of Jason Peters at TE for us back in the day.  Thing is, Peters had legitimate TE hands and made some huge catches for us (Auburn, his freshman season; the 7 OT game at Ole Miss the same year).

Jason makes several good catches in this clip showing highlights of the 2003 S. Carolina game:

Jason peters was a good tight end, but only Houston Dale Nutt would play a 6x pro bowl left tackle at tight end...
I have known the troubles I was born to know
I have wanted things a poor man's born to want
And in all my dreams and memories I go running
Through the fields of Arkansas from which I sprung

Jason Peters was without a doubt a very BIG boy when drafted, 6-4, 328 lbs. and was rated #4 out of 56 TE's eligible for the draft that year, but even he didn't top 400 lbs. Good grief.

I think that could be the newest trend in college football, finding abnormally big guys with light feet and good hands and sending them out as an eligible receiver.  I'd be willing to bet we see this starting to catch on this season, growing more and more each year - especially in leagues with defenses focusing on speed rather than downright size to defend against the spread.

At that size, his knees will not last playing that position.

They'll likely last longer than playing inside.

This is correct

Or at QB (Tretola).

He scored like 40 more TD's than he would have at left tackle... HDN did not fail J. Peters. In fact, I met his cousin once on my way to Texas at a gas station and we talked about #80 for about 10 min's... Much better topic after his TE days...

My ex wife had a pet monkey I used to play with. That was one of the few things I liked about her

Are you saying it was a bad idea to line Peters up next to Andrews and run behind them?

Notice he says your boy instead of "our coach". Very telling.

I'm not worried. If he recruits like he did here Louisville will fire him in about 5 years.

I'll never forget listening to the radio and hearing Paul call that play against Miss St.? that year. Running play in-which they run behind Andrews and Peters and they left 3 or 4 of the opposing players on the ground hurt in the process of a long run or a TD. Paul got so worked up and excited over it. He couldn't believe it.

Peters was a TE in name only. he was actually an outside tackle, if there is such a thing.

In HDN's offense, yes.  But he actually had very good hands, so he was a legitimate threat and the defense had to account for him in coverage schemes.

Could you imagine being a defense end lined up on Shawn Andrews outside should with Jason Peters next to him at TE...  That's like ten tons of people

Baylor got a real big boy!
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
