Peyton Hillis FB/KR to 8 year NFL RB
Also on this one he was 3rd string behind Darren McFadden and Felix Jones. There isn't many backs in the history of the SEC that would have cracked the starting spot. Moving him to FB to get him on the field was a smart move IMO.

Yeah, by the same logic you could say McFadden would be closing in on a 10 year all-pro had he played the position many projected for him to the NFL out of high school, Safety.
Felix could have had a more productive NFL career had he played what most recruited him as, a DB.
Hillis fell into the same gap as Kody Walker, big back who can be productive, but in the RB rotation would be behind two future NFL players, so FB is a good way to get him on the field.
Broderick Green would have had the same opportunity had he not been so damn soft.
