Positions for Jason Croom and Pig Howard

[volfrk86]

TOS reporting that Jason Croom will move back to WR and that Pig Howard will stay at WR and not go to RB,this is per Rucker.

 

[Batman1948]

If this is true, I believe both are good moves. We will be thin at WR with Hunter and CP missing next year.

 

[volfrk86]

I'm just worried about TE now. I wonder if this says anything about Chauntez Jackson. Maybe with Croom moving back to WR then maybe Jackson sticks as TE.

 

[DieHardVOL]

Must have a TE commin in... Wonder who?

Hopefully several.

 

[SmokeySC]

Pig should play both IMO like cp did.

 

[ATLVols]

Great move with Croom. I was concerned that we wouldn't utilize him enough at TE. The kid is going to tear it up at WR. Wide Receiver U!!

 

[volfrk86]

I think he is an automatic starter from day one next year. I say we have Croom and Dallas on the outside with Bowles in the slot and Pig in four man formations.

 

[volfrk86]

A wide out should not worry about not starting there will be plenty of chances for playing time in this system.

 

[OrangeByBirth]

Pig's a slot. Croom will provide flex potential as a WR and sliding inside to TE from time to time.

 

[Volfan2012]

Still a lot to be determined hopefully we get a very good JC WR or freshman for next years team. WR and secondary seems to be our two weakest positions going into next season.

 

[vol'96]

North end zone td keeper

South end zone td keeper

Just sayin..

 

[theutvolunteers]

I like both ideas.

 

[VolsByNature]

I liked Croom at TE. With that speed it would have been hard to cover him. But coach knows more than me

 

[FearlessFreep]

No need for Pig to move to RB. I believe Devrin Young is much better suited for this offense thus eliminating the need for Pig to move.

Pig could be our own Steve Smith. :loco:

Wouldn't Fugate or Carter be Possibilities at Tight end?

 

[C-town Vol]

I agree keep Pig at WR but use him much like Florida used Percy Harvin (not saying Pig is at Harvin's level)...fly sweeps, occasional zone read at either RB or QB...if you work him at WR then it gives you more options to get him the ball. It is easier for a guy to learn to take a hand off than for a guy to learn good route running...so let him spend the bulk of his time there.

 

[C-town Vol]

Carter? Jacob Carter?
The guy weighs like 200 lbs.

 

[1orangews6]

Croom to me is a hybrid WR/TE. He should give some DBs hell next year.

 

[rickyb712]

a fast tight end is valuable thing to have a match up hell

 

[Coastypop]

I am guessing that CBJ does not utilize a TE often in his system

 

[Teeman]

I'm just worried about TE now. I wonder if this says anything about Chauntez Jackson. Maybe with Croom moving back to WR then maybe Jackson sticks as TE.

Don't forget about Meredith and Downs. These two should be OK if they stay healthy. Neither one is Mike Rivera yet, but who is?

 

[Volfootball55]

Like the move with Croom, dislike keeping Pig at WR. Has the body type and skill set to be a better RB than WR imo.

I agree about Pig at rb.I also think peeple forget about Bowles.He's gonna be a really good one at wr.
