Interview with Jarad Moon, former FSU center/roommate
“What are the developmental needs when you are talking about running backs,” Moon asked and explained. “Number one, running backs are not there unless they can run. Sure you may have to sharpen a guy up with reading zone blocking, but by and large they run through holes. But where they have to develop is in blocking schemes, as far as pass protection and how sharp they are in their pass routes.
“So you have a guy (Weinke) that is historically a quarterback and they’re going to be absolute experts in two areas that running backs always need, fundamentally need, help developing in – pass blocking and route running. His expertise will be there.”
