Thanks for the post and willingness to engage in a meaningful discussion. I agree that we have not yet seen McVay and other Coaches install a package set for Atwell. And the reason for not incorporating it remains a mystery. When he started early last year, he did get a decent amount of plays and connected on some. There weren't that many go routes or jet sweeps, etc.
You seem to be splitting hairs regarding Tutu's size comparatively in the NFL. Like I said, he's on the lower edge. Maybe he is at the very bottom. I'd say that is more a compliment to Tutu than a slam.
I've mentioned before why I post on Tutu. Most of it is to battle the false narratives on this board. Haters gonna hate, but I will do my best to stick up for him. Posters have been wrong on him a lot including this year. To their dismay, he is still on the team, and, god-forbid that Atwell helps the Rams be successful this year. I'm glad you continue to pull for him, but it is easy to see that there is a board contingent that is absolutely not pulling for him. And IMHO that is just sad.

Here's the deal... Your opinion and my opinion on Tutu doesnt matter. It's what Coach McVay's opinion is that does matter.
So far McVay has tried Tutu at a few places on the field. Apparanently McVay thinks there are better players at those same positions or Tutu would be on the field playing one of them. McVay is either unable or unwilling to come up with a special package of plays specifically for Tutu. Or if he has a package, he's been unwilling to showcase it to this point which keeps Tutu off the field. McVay has added additonal players to the WR room annually which has kept Tutu off of the field.
I can't help but say that Tutu is not on the "lower edge of NFL players in size", he almost certainly is at the very bottom.
Not sure why you've latched on to this kid to where you feel like it's a duty for you to defend all things "Tutu"? Everyone is entitled to think what they want, including you. For me, I've pulled for the kid since the day they way over-drafted him. I think pretty much everyone on this board wanted to see him succeed and provide positive impact on the field. After all, we are Rams fans.
