Russell Shepard ready for new role | WBRZ News 2 Louisiana : Baton Rouge, LA |

I'm afraid he's going to end up, as Kragthorpe would say, "a jack of all trades, and a master of none".

Hope I'm wrong because he's certainly a great leader and teammate.

huh? outside receiver?

Split end or flanker as opposed to slot, I assume.

yeah me too, just wondering how effective he will be on the outside.

I'm not sure he's got the size for it, but maybe he can make up for that with moves and athleticism, which he has in spades.

This is pretty much opposite of what I was hoping for.

It also makes sense if you want to get Shep more involved in the offense and anticipate starting Jefferson, who might check down to his 2nd receiver on a good day and almost never to his 3rd option or a dump-off back.

You are not alone.....7-8 per game
