He caught more than he dropped.
-
He was another undersized, forced #1 on a bad receiver group in 2015.
Had the game ending catching against USC but otherwise wasn't a difference maker in a year that included losses to Boise, Cal, and Utah. -
I still am waiting for him to visit Oregon, I hear it's happening soon.
-
To me he's the guy that always ran out of bounds instead of trying to get a first down. Then he'd do a funky joyous dance after a pedestrian 9-yard reception.
-
I’d love to see someone do the stats on his yards after catch because I’m willing to bet he had more sideways yardage than actual yards gained.DerekJohnson said:To me he's the guy that always ran out of bounds instead of trying to get a first down.

I’m happy for him now that he’s not running sideways and pissing me off on Saturdays.NeGgaPlEaSe said:

Sometimes guys who aren't great in college find a way to carve out a career in the NFL. Good for him. Marvin Hall made it almost 10 years himself. Maybe Sark squandered The Legion of Zoom.

Other websites? How about this website? Everyone hated him here when he was here, and everyone was justifiably surprised that he's had a cup of coffee in the NFL.longduckdong said:I was remembering how all the people on other websites would make fun of how bad Jaydon was and wanted him replaced.

Ben Davidson is the all time Husky who did nothing in college but became a semi legendary pro for the Raiders

Why do you hate Arnie Weinmeister?RaceBannon said:Ben Davidson is the all time Husky who did nothing in college but became a semi legendary pro for the Raiders

Arnold George Weinmeister (March 23, 1923 – June 28, 2000) was a Canadian professional football player who was a defensive tackle. He went to four Pro Bowls, but with only a six-year tenure in the All-America Football Conference and National Football League combined, his career is one of the shortest of any Pro Football Hall of Fame member. He also played in the Canadian Football League. He was born in Rhein, Saskatchewan.[1]
Early years
Weinmeister was a two-time All-City tackle in high school, and played end, fullback and tackle during a 4-year tenure at the University of Washington which was interrupted by four years of army service. He was scouted by New York Yankees (AAFC) head coach Ray Flaherty while playing fullback.
Professional career
Weinmeister turned professional in 1948 and played defensive tackle for the New York Yankees in the All-America Football Conference until 1949, and for the New York Giants from 1950 to 1953. During his final season in New York, he served as the team captain. In 1949, Weinmeister won second-team All-AAFC as a rookie followed by first-team All-AAFC honors, was voted All-NFL Choice for four consecutive years (1950–1953), and was selected to play in the NFL's Pro Bowl every year from 1950 to 1953.
He was on the inaugural roster for the BC Lions in 1954, and played for the team for two seasons. He is one of five Saskatchewan natives to make it to the NFL (the other four being Jon Ryan, Rueben Mayes, Ben Heenan, and Brett Jones). -

Off the top of my head there's a handful of former Huskies who were unremarkable Dawgs with decent NFL paychecks - Dwayne Washington, Zeke Turner, Khalif Barnes, probably a bunch I just got to lazy to think about.RaceBannon said:Ben Davidson is the all time Husky who did nothing in college but became a semi legendary pro for the Raiders

Khalif Barnes was picked pretty high because of his talent. He was somewhat underwhelming at UW but he played on shitty teams.WoolleyDoog said:

Basketball player. He was just figuring it out in college.RaceBannon said:Ben Davidson is the all time Husky who did nothing in college but became a semi legendary pro for the Raiders
Plus, limited substitution era and the Huskies were really deep.
I loved the Raiders and the AFL. It was because of Big Ben. -
He was the best O lineman on the squad. Had a memorable game against Oregon in the Casey Paus hand it off game at Husky Stadium in the last win before the duckade. Took out Keith Lewis. I liked himRoadDawg55 said:

UWs going to need to recruit Saskatchewan pretty hard again if they want to go into Madison and win in November

1/2 of these responses remind me of Nebraska type posters. Time to level up.
