Do we need a FB

Trouble with a fullback is you take one more player off the roster and also off the field. They aren't going to do it. They did pretty weel with the wham play or whatever they were doing with Graham and i imagine Crumpler and Gronk will return to that. Hell, Hernandez isn't a great blocker, but Heath Evans was no Sam Gash either.

They'll use some big body for short yardage, but taking a roster spot for a position that doesn't exist in most of their formations seems unlikely to me.
 
I think Rapoport might be onto something with his blog about the Pats might be targeting Ingram with the Raiders pick next season.

Ingrams backup looked pretty damned good too. I'd take either of em
 
Vince Wilfork as goal line FB? That would be a sight for sore eyes I can tell you that much.

For those who can't work it out, that's a joke.

How many snaps per game do we line somebody up at what amounts to FB?

How big would you LIKE that number to be? If it's bigger than it is now, who would you like to take off the field?
