This goes back to what I was saying in another thread, and that's the assumption that smaller receivers are any less effective in the WCO than another system. To me, that doesn't make a lick of sense. Smaller receivers have every bit as good of a chance to succeed in the WCO as bigger receivers.

The bigger issue at stake with Moss is whether or not he can hold his own as a starting NFL receiver anymore. I could care less whether or not we think he's too small for a philosophy change.

I don't think I can vote for any of these answers since our runners will actually adapte better to a system that relies on them less than they did to the prior one.

Put on the spot though, I have to wonder how Portis and Betts will do as receivers. Not that they can't, just that they didn't do any of it in the last two years.
