There's a place for fat RBs, but sparingly. Personal preference is the Y-off TE/H-back role.
I would want a Vokolek or a Stoll type TE and then a Fidone or Allen type.

The only time I would really want a fat RB is goal line or short yardage. That way you can add a gap to either side and make it harder on the defense.

But if you are going too much with 22 and not with 2 RBs you are taking away a receiving threat.

I still think fullback is going to come back en vogue to at least some degree CFB offenses in the not-too-distant future, as nearly every defense overhauls their defense to be overwhelmingly coverage personnel, and the FB creates a physical mismatch. Just the way the cycle goes.
They already have for the most part as the last 5-6 years you've seen more and more of the hybrid TE - working the FB position in y-off. Creates gaps on either side of the formation and better PAP threat. Can still insert into the formation to create more gaps.

Vast majority of defensive evolution the last 5-10 years has been away from coverage, but for how to fit the run game with RPO threats.

But as you mentioned, I think the FB does create some mismatches in todays game because most teams simply don't do it much, and most defenses anymore pretty much install their base from a nickel standpoint as a starting point. But they still deal with everything a FB does with the Y-off stuff.
