Do you think we'll go back to using a FB this year?

I agree that the FB has to be a major special teams contributor to fit on the game day roster.  In my opinion drafting a FB in the 6th or 7th round isn't very unreasonable, if you're going to get a FB you might as well get the best FB in the draft class, particularly because they tend to stick to the team that drafted them at a very reasonable salary. 

 

The Texans chose Jay Prosch in the 6th round with a compensatory pick, and he is great contributor in short yardage situations.  He's a beast at lead blocking, but it's also nice that he has great hands and can run a short yardage inside play on misdirection plays.
