Probable: Gaskin, Browning, Pettis, Mathis... Browning seems small, but he's listed on NFL lists as one of the top QB's for his year.
Eldrenkamp will get a shot. I have no clue about Coleman Shelton, but he's a four year starter who has played multiple positions. Bierria might be too small, but at minimum he's a very good college LB. Gardenhire started over King at times last year. I actually think Coleman will be in a camp. The team is loaded.
That's my point. If you go down the line, the man for man talent isn't that far off. Obviously I could give a fuck about NFL success over team success at Washington, but it's not crazy to say Vea, Gaines, and Qualls won't have better pro careers than emtman. Or Ross is better than Bailey. Or the entire secondary isn't better than the 91 guys.
Now if they lose to Cal we can all shut the fuck up about it. The bar 91 set is extremely high in college and that's all that matters. If 2016 reaches that place and the tiebreak goes to NFL success, it won't be that hard to argue they're better.
The Emtman comparison is pretty unfair. Dude blew out his knees and that was that. It's pretty safe to say Vea, Gaines and Qualls won't sniff the #1 pick.
I agree this team has a lot of talent. Perhaps even more talent at some positions. But they don't have anybody like Stan Empterman.
I also think Taylor Rapp will play in the league. He is getting starter quality mintues half way through his freshmen year. He is covering really well, making big hits, and has had a couple nice tackles in run support this year.

Almost sounded like a Cuog the way they compare the Emtman bust to the Rian Leef bust. . . .Yes. the original comparison was unfair.

None of those guys are even close to what Stan Empterman was in college. All three are very good college DL too. Vea's potential is scary. He's massive. I actually watched his highlight film because he was a late signee and wondered how the fuck he wasn't a 5 star. He was 330+ and playing RB and actually making cuts.
When I was a young kid, I said to one of my dads, "Steve Emtman only had 6.5 sacks his best season. Was he really that good?"
He popped in the 91 Arizona game where Emtman starts the game with two sacks followed by the Rose Bowl win.
The best thing about Emtman's pro career was his cameo in Little Giants.
I agree an injury is an injury, but if 1 of those guys makes a pro bowl that's all I need to see.
Also Uncle Rico syndrome is kicking in. I've watched the tapes, emtman is better than those guys, but i'm seeing double teams getting completely punked by the 2016 dawgs too.
Mathis will be a late to mid round pick depending on his combine imo.. Gardenhire will play in the league he has size and length *faggy wink*.. Bierra fits today's modern NFL and his size is similar to Bobby Wagner both shorter and athletic..

I don't really disagree with anything you said here, but holy shit, 5 straight poasts?
Shouldn't you be in third period right now?
Next time I have a sit down with PurpleJ to discuss bandwidth conservation, I'll sit down too with this lad to explain consolidating multiple thoughts into one coherent post.
I should really consider using paragraphs, yes? Jesus christ i ramble worse than Dick Baird
Signs point to you becoming an alcoholic one day. I support this.

Totally agree. This is a very talented team with a number of future NFL players on it, and they play like Huskies, bad motherfuckers and all. Best part is it's also a very young team. In that regard it is like 1990 all over again. But, the season is only half over, let's see how they respond to having a target on their backs.
Gaines is a fucking beast man, and remember hes young. If his trajectory continues when he is a senior he is for real going to be an Empterman type. Dude is legit.

The bolded is the best part. Though I certainly hope they don't have a UCLA game in them. I could probably deal with a loss without completely losing my shit, but not if it came against a real dreck team, like that fucking UCLA squad.
I loved the 91 squad and the 90 and 92 teams were really good too, but the thing that is so different now versus 25 years ago is the offenses in the college game. Lambright's defensive scheme was a perfect way to attack traditional college offenses. It also put some players who were odd fits for traditional positions into roles where they could excel. And it was new in 90 and 91 and other teams hadn't figured out how to deal with it, sort of like true spread offenses were 10 or so years ago.
Once the talent dropped off even a little and other teams figured out that they couldn't line up in an I-formation and beat the 46, it started getting gashed.
Pettis seems like a UDFA type that ends up on roster (Seahawks) bet he will replace Kearse.
He's more physically impressive than Kearse, I would guess he'll be drafted before the 7th round.
Yes most likely i forgot he was just a junior... Don't think he has mid round production up to this point, but could end up seeing him as 3-7 round pick when he enters.. But what do i know.

I would take @DonaldJones over Psalm.
But your point is a good one, smallish, quick running backs are a dime a dozen at the NFL level.
