What dose everyone thing after his first ever touchdown? wildcat? 3rd and 1 situations? even 4th and short situations?
Over Under touchdowns by Faalele in 2019: 0.5
I would take the over
Ya know, Faalele in a fullback role gives you something to think about. Imagine being the defender isolated in the hole, with Big Dan bearing down on you with his third or fourth stride ... and a running back somewhere behind him.

If the team has a great year (think they will), it would be a fun national attention getter to have him get some TDs. Cannot hurt with recruiting.
The fans would go bonkers as well.
True. Everyone loves to see the unexpected body type as the star. See La Tortuga
Was thinking about this - does the team even have a traditional Fullback on the roster? If they do want an extra blocker in the backfield, I assume it would have to be one of the TE's, or an extra lineman.
I know that is typically not part of their offense, but in a key situation, it would be nice to have someone with some beef who can serve as a lead blocker. If nothing else, as a counterpoint to the Seth Green wildcat package.
As far as Faalele in the backfield, I would be surprised if we saw it more than once or twice in the regular season.
Any downside to just recruiting 400lb guys exclusively from here out and everyone just runs forward when the play starts?
Put him in at fullback and run him enough so that the defense needs to take the threat seriously.
