    Scrempos is now 6-6 280 and looks like a man in his bio pic compared to a year ago when he was 6-6 252.

    Thing about Wooching is he's actually improved. He's actually made a few plays recently. He was worthless and annoying the first half of the year. Now he's just annoying.

    I don't know how much better the defense can get statistically. It was #4 and #12 in both advanced stats I follow. If the offense plays a relatively mistake free game (no TO's, make short FG's) the final score might be 51-3 or 37-3 before the last 2 return TDs. The key to next season will be how much the offense improves. If we were an NFL team we'd trade 2 DL for 2 WR's.

    LB is the only spot on D I don't think we are super deep, but I guess that depends on how guys develop anyway. We are super deep on the DL (when is the last time we ever had that), and deep in the secondary. This D should be lights out for a few more years if we can find replacements at LB, and the young DL and DBs continue on their trajectory.

    I like the young OLB's on this team

    Scrempos, McCoy and Potoa'e all should be good if we've had any indication from our young pups.

    The thing I like about all of them is that they are physically rare guys. Scrempos is huge (I really loved his film, high DDY 2); McCoy is a tall/wide 3-Tech, hard to find; Potoa'e is a big, fast, solid, quick, strong Elephant/Terrell Suggs type.

    All could be very good.

    Also, to answer the @HeretoBeatmyChest question; it's really just about playing better in key situations. Getting off the field on 3rd and long, getting more turnovers.

    If we could get off the field more on 3rd and long via pass and 3rd and short via run we would be really fucking good.

    I still say we have 2 all Pac 12 WR's coming in, with a good amount of depth. Ross, and Daniels are your starters. Sample and Ajamu are your tight ends if we want a physical running game, with Daniels on the edge blocking for bubble screens to Ross and getting the edge free for those Gaskin long runs

    If Daniels is moved to WR, we also have Mike Neal coming in who could take the Daniels/Perkins role as the black, pass-catching TE while Sample and Ajamu assume the white/brown blocking TE role

    I want it recognized that I gave BBK a 2. But, Fuller fucking sucks cock. DDY 1.

    Stil, BBK needs to get to 220 this off-season. If he can do that, the future is bright.

    Upvoted for juicing it up; not-awesomed for implying that BBK's going to be like two shit-tier white LBs.

    We have actually had good white LBs at Washington. It's been a while, but... I mean...

    James Clifford, Dave Hoffmann, David Rill, Bo Yates, Tim Meamber, Brett Collins, etc.

    It's been a while, though... our last decent white LB was probably Jerry Jensen, right?
