Not necessarily - Fullback's don't bring the ball back on EVERY occasion, and a lot of the time they link up with their wingers anyway. Definitely not more dangerous than making 20 tackles a game.
Most of the tackles that he'd make would be as a second or third man coming in. And I dunno about the rest of you as well, but I cringe every time I see him get tackled these days. And as a fullback, I'd imagine he'll have to bring the ball back at least 7 or 8 times. There's also no doubt the opposition would be targeting him with bombs as well, smashing him as soon as he catches it...
