    It could always be a crazy formation where Mickens is the QB and throws a bubble screen to Lenius or Daniels while the rest of the my dream package road-grades DBs for one of them.

    This will give us a 5 wide set of:

    6'5" Lenius
    6'4" Perkins
    6'4" Daniels
    6'5" Nik Little
    6'5" Ajamu

    Cover that in 1-1 coverage, you Pac-12 midget CBs!!!1!!@!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!

    wow he has the slowest get off I have ever seen with absolutely zero wiggle. Every ball caught is wildly contested. Im sure he has good hands and all but he will never be open. I really hope he is a walk-on. But if we are bashing the kids Im out

    Won't Smith have Mickens out there to have Jeff Carta-BrowningRodriguez throw the bubble screen to?

    A Columbian, an Asian, and now a slow non-descript white guy. It's over.

    Now you guys just need a guy from India. Bonus if he can do the head/neck waggle when he is talking trash to opposing players with a tonal inflection.

    The saving grace about being pretty deep at TE is that the offensive staff obviously doesn't have to play Marvin Hall or a true frosh (or the new JC WR) if they'd rather play Daniels, Ajamu, or Drew Sample.

    I'd be totally fine with Perkins and Daniels and / or Ajamu being on the field nearly all of the time since they are better than Hall, etc.

    Ajamu is listed at 6'5" 251 lbs so he be used in run blocking and stay in as a blocker to help Eldrenkamp (likely the starter at LT) and Coleman Shelton (or whoever wins the RT spot). Perkins and Daniels are match-up problems, especially against teams that talented at CB but not as good in coverage with their safeties or LBs.

    Depth can sometimes be the difference between going 6-6 (give or take a win) and going 4-8. With Ross now sitting out the year and assuming Miles is a goner, WR and QB is where the Huskies have the youngest depth for 2015.

    The season was already over.

    IMO, this is one of the biggest flaws in UW fan's thinking. I used to see it all the time on dawgman. And I'm not saying it about this kid. I know nothing about him.

    We have sucked for so long that "depth guys" are celebrated. "This guy isn't great, but he'll provide depth so that the freshmen don't have to redshirt."

    "Depth guys" should ideally be young guys with established older guys in front of them or older guys playing behind All conference/ AA types. Good teams have 2nd and 3rd stringers that could start on other PAC 12 teams, and not just on WSU or Colorado.

    It's time to increase the standards now that we have a real coach. No more celebrating depth and Evan Hudson types.

    So far, Petersen's recruiting has been pretty good, but we need difference makers, not guys brought in for depth. And this rant isn't to be taken at total face value or to bash Petersen. It's just a general rant. We all can see why Petersen wanted to bring in another body or two at WR and QB.
    Agreed.

    I think in the ideal world you get really freaking good players in every recruiting class that can be difference makers and then you have like 3-5 guys that look elsewhere after a few years because they see they can't beat out those guys (Healthy attrition). I don't want to see 10 guys leave a recruiting class anymore like we had going on under Sark because they are just truly awful at athletics. I can handle 2-3 of those guys that are just misses, it happens. But if our like 5th worst player in a class is a guy like Evan Hudson we will be doing very well.

    I saw some potential with his size and good hands. He uses his body well....

    yeah... he is on the slow side... but I think he could help us *IF* we have a QB that can put the ball in spots where he has the advantage. I think this could be a decent pick up.

    Funny to think it was Hudson, a walk-on in 2010, who beat out others in his same class like Sione Potoae, Josh Shirley, and Lawrence Lagafuaina (and Andrew Hudson before Petersen saved him).

    Great post and probably deserves its own thread.
