Kelly Bryant has made it known that he has Crohn's

Disease...keep that in mind when making suggestions like moving him to TE. It's probably always going to be a struggle for him to put and keep weight on. He will more than likely stay on the leaner/athletic side and not so much a muscled up, dominating force. Not saying it's unpossible, but he'd have a heck of an uphill climb, especially with less than a year left to play collegiate ball.

He is built much like Evan Ingram from Ole Miss, Ingram was more of a WR at the TE position in terms of size. He also produced WR numbers and was drafted fairly high to play on Sundays. Not all TE need to be a Gronk monster to play effectively on Sunday or Saturday for that matter. His atletic abilities would give Clemson a receiving TE maybe better than Legget.

Easy, he can play WR/TE when TL/ HJ is the QB. Then when they run a design QB run he can play QB and when the offense is one the sideline he can play safety. Easy peezy!

I could see that, but he also reaped the benefit of having OBJ, Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Harris, and Sterling Sheppard out. Engram was virtually the only receiving threat on that team. He seems more of an exception, not the rule.
Bryant may be listed at 220, but even that seems generous. Engram is more like 235. Again, I won't say it's impossible but adding 15 lbs of muscle to even rival the size of EE would appear to be a steep hill to climb for KB.

It is ridicilous to even consider a move from QB to TE.

Well he better consider something other than QB if he wants to play on Sunday. After that performance Saturday playing QB for Clemson is no sure thing either.

Fair enough, Engram is a bit heavier and I do not know enough about Crohn's to know whether KB can add the 15-20 pounds to his frame. I would just think that it is in his best intersts to change positions if he desires to play on Sunday. Heck, after that performance in the Spring game even playing QB on Saturday is in serious doubt.
