Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Reassessing the midgets

Through 4 games, I wanted to reassess the 4 midgets who were supposed to play major roles for my dwags this season:

Fuller - was convinced he was a decent 3rd WR but was despondent that he was going to be our? #1. Boy has he told me to fuck myself. The kid is a baller, gets open consistently and makes tough grabs, rises to the moment, and is definitely worthy of being a #1

BBK - hated the fact that he plays hard and is around the football but is the size of a safety, but I’ve been proven wrong! He should get a blue ribbon for the way he rides ball carriers like a 4 year old on a sheep. Joking aside, he had a solid game yesterday. I was impressed with his forced fumbles. Unfortunately the assessment is the same, he plays hard and typically makes the right play, but he needs 3 inches and 20 pounds.

Bryant - was struggling to understand how he was Lake’s favorite after watching him get burned repeatedly by big WR, especially against Stanford and PSU. Like Fuller, Myles has told me to go fuck myself. He’s been the most consistent DB this season. Plays the run fearlessly, is a sure tackler, has gotten hole on some blitzes, and makes plays in coverage. He’s at home at Nickel. I was calling for Molden to beat him out but I was wrong.

Bowman - had a discussion in the spring on walk-ons about how all of his production was had against weak competition and blowouts, whereas Clemson’s Hunter Renfrow repeatedly showed up in big games. I mentioned I’d rather have a specimen like Tryon because physically he has a better chance for consistent production. So far, Shane has done more than Ryan. He’s consistently stoned on the edge, and has been losing time to both Ngata and 3 DL sets.



So if the 4, Fuller and Bryant have balled out consistently, BBK has been BBK which can be infuriating but also you pray he doesn’t get hurt because he’s all we? have, and I’m not sure if Bowman has been played.

    You should throw Baccellia and Pounds in the discussion as well. Both of those guys are midgets imo. Imagine being Cook or Bynum and the coaches won't play you over them.

    If BBK had 3 inches and 20 pounds he would be a #1 draft pick.

    He is what he is, and that's an asset that is always around the ball that makes the tackle but doesn't physically punish anyone.

    The only play I remember Bowman making is absolutely destroying the Auburn fullback that tried to block him

    That’s why I said the assessment is the same. He’s frustrating because he is right there and you’re excited, then he drags him down after 4 yards and a first. But he had a big game yesterday and stood up Huntley so I’m hopeful.

    And upvote for the Bowman at Auburn blowup on the full back. Unfortunately that’s been it.

    Ngata has really taken Bowman's role of 3rd down pass rusher that we allow to freelance a little to try and get sacks
