Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
So Grant Paulsen is saying, and I just checked with a couple other people, that Niles Paul is working as a TE this week

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
He seems a bit lightweight for a TE. Unless he's bulked up in the offseason. Aren't most TEs in the 240s and higher weight range?

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
That's just prototypical tight ends who are 6'3, 6[4, 6'5, and 6'6 who weigh 240-260 pounds these days. Paul could possibly play TE. If he has the strength to block LBs and DEs, then his size shouldn't really matter.
It would be a nice move to place Paul @ TE in some situations to form mismatches. |

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. |

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
I think this is a super tall order for Niles Paul to play TE. He must bulk up. If he pulls this off, ultimate beast move.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
ya know....I like Niles Paul as a TE, never thought of that...its probably the only way to get him in the passing game....he is probably our 6th receiver at best...now he is our 3rd TE unless we end up doing something crazy like trading Cooley...
I think it is good for Niles Paul and it is good TE insurance in case someone decides to start smoking weed again.

Paul also played some TE late last season when Paulsen was the no. 1 guy. And it's not like Niles Paul would ever play in 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 RB personnel. So try not to think of him as the prototype in-line TE. It's just an interior receiver.

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
Exactly. Not sure why kids are saying something about his weight if the guy is 230 (give or take).

Re: Redskins Add WRs Pierre Garcon and Joshua Morgan
This is either genius or incredibly stupid.
