It's not a question of size or strength. Gus said multiple times last offseason that CG was, pound for pound, arguably the strongest player on the team. His game is just not suited for being an every down back. Great burst, straight line speed, can even shed some arm tackles in the open field. But running every down between the tackles is an entirely different ball game. Can't fault CG, as he is really good at what he brings us, and without him, running between the tackles would be much tougher as defenses have to respect his speed.
