Gordon is not a great blocker. I haven't seen any evidence of it.

Not sure what you have been watching because Gordon is in fact a damn good run blocker. Its literally the only reason hes out there. This is what analysts have said about him:

Gordon amounts to an extra offensive tackle in the Tigers' offense because he's such a powerful blocker. Left tackle La'el Collins, a strong 2015 draft prospect, raves about the holes that open on the left side when Gordon lines up beside him

Also, Smith has not been hit in stride once this year. That ball in the Wisc game was behind him and he had to fall to the ground to be able to even touch it with his hands behind him. He is a big guy. He is not going to be able to change directions to move to the ball as well, but if you can hit him, he is going to be a load to bring down.

I agree he hasnt been hit in stride at all... Hell hes only seen like 3 targets all year long. But Smith can move. In fact hes much more of a WR than he is a TE. He was a WR in high school and was split out over 90% of the time. Hes basically an overgrown WR. He can move and change directions just fine.
