Yes, I understand that. What if Kyle Shanahan calls a play where the offense is running a stretch the play away from Paul who is lined up at TE? Let's say he's blocking an OLB on the play. On the very next play Paul is lined up at TE again and is able to beat the OLB deep on play action where there's no safety help whatsoever and ends up catching a 69 yard TD pass from RG3?
That would be a great play call that was used off a play action pass that running the ball set up. I'd rather see TEs who are 240-270 pounds also. But if Paul is used this way, it would make defenses respect Paul and make them accountable for him when he's lined up as a TE.
