Just saw this . . .
I seriously have to disagree with you. That's not good because of your o-line, not regardless of it. If players are getting into the backfield so often that you can barely get a step or two without contact, the fact you're even getting upfield two or three years is amazing. And, the yards after contact is very situational. Contact can be running through arm tackles of off-balanced players or it can be drilling someone head-on and running them over. Again, if there's players in the back field, I'd say that's a lot more than just attempted arm tackles.
Instead, I'm interested in what others are saying about him, those who play or played at that level and to a person, all I've heard is that he is fantastic and very talented. I'd like to see that on the field this year, but if he's not injured like he was most of last year and running with what seems like a steel shank in his boot to protect his foot, and he's running behind an improved o-line, he probably will.

TE DARNELL WASHINGTON is going to be a huge asset to the running game for this offense. I don't know if he will become a threat in the passing game whether redzone or down the middle or whatever. He was used for moving people out of running lanes at Georgia. My only question mark on him ever has been why wasn't he used more in the overall offensive plan at Georgia if he's ready and capable of so much more.
OL in Jumbo with DWash(270) or Little Ironhead(230) or Najee(240) carrying the ball is going to pick up that 1st down or TD a lot more times than not. DWash as the extra blocker in Jumbo is what he does best as well. Go ahead and make a list of all the teams that can bring that force to bear in short yardage situations.
Now imagine DWash and Pickens doing the blocking for those jet sweeps and using a speed guy like CA3 or McFarland. Could be a very different looking play than PF or Gentry blocking for Gunner.
I'm not saying this makes our offense. I'm only pointing out this 1 move can make our offense better. And that is the goal.
For the usage question at Georgia, I can only go by what I have read. And that is that Bowers (the other TE) is an absolute freakish monster of a talent who was ready to dominate SEC play from day one as a freshman. Many early scouting reports are basically saying he is a fusion of Pitts threat as a receiver and a dominant blocker as a TE. There are a few serious draft publications that put him as a top 5-10 pick in his upcoming draft class. I believe he is also a projected finalist and some say sure winner of the Biletnikoff award as a TE.
Again...I do not watch UGA football (although with the astounding amount of NFL picks....maybe I should?) and have never seen Bowers or Washington play before. But it READS like Washington's usage at Georgia was more related to how great Bowers is than how not great Washington is....
dayum...here's a video thats escaped me.
