Re: Why Brandon Banks needs to be used on the Offense

So why not get him some touches on offense. Banks did play WR at Kansas St. so he can catch the football. Banks has the speed to get on top of the defense and we could take some shots down the field. Who knows maybe he could get some PI calls our way. To me we need a guy that's a home run threat on the offense who can take a 10 yard pass 90 yards to the house. I hope Shannny gives Banks a few snaps very soon. The NFL is a passing league now so Banks has a advantage now with the new rules restricting the defenders from touching WR's anymore. Maybe Banks could be our vs of D-Jax.
I like BB, but everytime that guy gets hit I think he might not get back up. The guy is a willow the wisp type guy. I can see him getting jacked by a CB or S and game over for him, or he coughs up the ball. You have Austin and Paul as Wrs, and they show promise. Then you have AA which is your deep ball threat and JG who is the new #1. Hankerson needs to get in some reps to cure his dropsies, also. I can see BB being thrown in the mix as a WR from time to time, but I think eventually he would get destroyed.
