See this is the type of thing that bothers me, why hand Stevenson the job; make him compete and earn it. This is what they did for Langford also, just let Forte walk and handed him the job; only to find out that he wasn't that good. Luckily Howard was legit and they stole him in the 5th.

Maybe they weren't in love with Lasike and figured that Stevenson would perform about as well and his a higher upside.

I've seen Fox do that too many times. He just does that. Not sure why.

Don't assume or figure, make him earn it.
One thing I am not assuming is that Stevenson has a roster spot for sure.
Look at Lasike's stats for last year. He touched the ball 4 times and gained a total of 11 yards in 10 games. So I don't think the comparison to Forte and Langford is really relevant.
I'm not sure that we will carry a FB on the roster this year. Maybe they did it to open a roster position for another signing.

FB's dont carry the ball much, and when they do it's short yardage/goal line carries so ypa is a bit of a misnomer. Maybe they won't use a FB this year, but I like competiton, and it seems that Pace/Fox are more then happy to greese the rails for their picks/guys.

I love having a true FB, everyone who knows me knows that. Someone who can lead block and catch out of the backfield is invaluable. I've watched a couple FSU games just to watch the backfield and blocking and Stevenson is a good candidate - he made Cook's job easy in a pro set offense.
