There were fullbacks bigger than guards at the time.

Middle Linebacker Phil Minnick. Signed as a rookie out of Iowa State in 1965. He was a CFL Western Conference All Star in 1966 & 1968 as well as an All Canadian in 1967 & 69. When he was healthy, Minnick was one of the most dominant middle linebackers in the CFL. For 4 seasons from 1966 thru 1969 he played at an extremely high level. A severe knee injury in 1970 caused him to miss a good part of that season & all of 1971. Minnick returned to the Bombers in 1972 but moved to outside linebacker as Mickey Doyle had taken over Minnick's MLB spot. He retired after the 1972 season.
