I don't want to put too much on him too soon, especially if the OL is not up to par.

I could see him excelling with the personnel groupings suggested if the team makes sure he is protected. 

Could/wound TEs be used as an extra blocker, considering we have no pass catchers?

It all depends on how well Little performs. If we're still stuck with the same under-performing starting OT's we had last season, I'd become a run heavy team in order to protect our new QB. As I have said on many occasions, I don't trust Robinson and especially not Taylor in pass protection. I don't wanna see Trevor get "Burrowed." With James Robinson and Travis Etienne in the backfield, I would have no problem going very run heavy in Trevor's rookie year, both to protect him and bring him along slowly in the passing game, using TE's as extra blockers on the edge. IMO, that may be the smartest way to go at this.
While part of me wants to see the offense with TL fully unleashed, I am more than happy with a conservative approach, especially if the OL is still a weakness and since TL is still young.   Justin Herbert managed to do okay without the best protection, but I don't want to risk it with TL.  At minimum, I'd prefer the team to start off conservatively until TL has a better handle on what NFL defenses will do to attack the offense and for the OL to settle with the new schemes and protections, and for Little to knock more of the rust off.

LOL

Pretty much.  
Barring an O'Shaughnessy renaissance that eclipses his former ceiling or an unprecedented emergence from Tyler Davis...  we still need a receiving TE.

At this stage, I am hoping Njoku is cut and we pick him up.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
