The guy is an above average receiver at the position, and an excellent blocker

Wasn't he averaging 30+ yards a pass at one time? IMHO he was underutilized in the pass game this year. When we screened to him in his first and second season, he was a threat to house each pass.

And anyone suggesting he is a liability in pass blocking has not watched him play since his first collegiate game vs Va Tech.

Of the top of my head, I can recall a single instance this year of him getting beat for a sack. He straight up stones blitzing LBs and safeties, even when they had a head of steam coming in.
