Mailbag: Can You Pay Dez That Much Despite Limited Touches? Hanna at FB?

I like James Hanna, and I believe the coaches do too. To get him on the field more often, is it inconceivable to put him in a dual-role, and use him as a fullback as well as tight end? I don't think we've had a decent pass-catching fullback since Moose.

Nick: All of the tight ends in this offense are used in a fullback role at some point, including Witten. But to use him as an actual fullback as a lead blocker seems a bit of a stretch, even for Hanna, who is a pretty good blocker.
