Grunts are actually a lot bigger than they look. To the MC, they look about as tall as a large dog, but they are only a few inches shorter than the marine models.
As for the idea, it just doesn't fit in the Halo universe. This isn't Hitman. And besides, Grunts are seen as worthless; their allies would have no problem shooting right through them (or even better, shooting the methane pack in hope of causing an explosion) to get to the Chief. I'd be the same with Jackels; Brutes and elites are probably too strong (Brutes are certainly too strong) to be held by the Chief for very long.
