Wilson's ability has only begun to be tapped. He can, and will, lead a QB centric offense, like Brady, to a SB victory. I feel much more confident in saying that than calling Willson an inline blocker or predicting Cottam is going to amount to anything.
Why though? I honestly think that's the big kicker...that the NFL's biggest worship position has something to prove rather than being about a tried and true winning formula. I agree that Wilson isn't done improving his game, but I also know that PC in on record just weeks ago stating that their emphasis on running the football isn't going anywhere. The two aren't mutually exclusive. The idea is to be more efficient at both, much like how some of our players stated that it was more execution of the offense in the latter part of the year than big changes.
And if Cottom works out, he allows us to consolidate FB and 3rd TE, freeing up an extra gameday spot. That's highly, highly valuable. The kid is a heck of an athlete to boot. Getting to know and hanging out with the projected starting RB doesn't hurt.
