Finke and Sanders will play. But those guys are weapons on offense who can do things with the ball. Smythe is just a guy. If they have Claypool, who is one of their best special teams players, and they can't teach him to block well enough to keep Smythe off the field then why have coaches?
It'd be like if they sign this Oweh guy and then two years in it's "well, he can't hold up on the run so I guess we have to play Bonner."
Unacceptable.
