Offense
WR - B+
TE - C
OL - B
QB - C (but shows good talent)
RB - Inc (really need more work to grade on)

Defense
DL - C-
LB - B+ (missed on some assignments, but played well when asked to.)
DB - B+ (See LB comments)

Special Teams:
Coverage: A (no big plays by Wisconsin!)
Return: B (positives without negatives... very good)
Punts: B (2 bad, the rest took advantage of opportunities)
Kickoffs: C (I know you got a touchback, but how as a unit do you not get the kick off in time?)

I was impressed with the wrs. Just need to get it to the consistently. We should just forget about the tes. Put the biggest guy out there and just let him block. Oline got better as game went on. We def have depth there and was night and day from 1st to 4th quarter. I think they will shape up nicely allowing us to establish run earlier in games to let Jennings manage.

Welter - A+ for slapping some asses, moving guys over a gap or two


Dude, Welter is serviceable. Welter, as usual, is playing mediocre football but he gets picked on because he is melanin deficient... Not his fault that he stands out and gets ragged on more than any other player. If we had a better guy at the MLB spot he would be starting.

To even bring race up in your comment is laughable. He gets picked on because he is always out of position, usually runs right towards the block and usually makes the tackle about 8 yards ,if hes even near the play, from the line of scrimmage. Beckweth is learning a new position and will be starting in about 3 or 4 more weeks. I saw him blow up a few offense lineman when they came at him unlike welter who just gets blocked with no fight.

WR - A
TE - F; Dickson fumble, DeSean drop, seemed like lackluster blocking
OL - D- - didn't do anything until middle of third when they had lost their second starting DT. This Oline is supposed to be the strongest unit on this team and it was the weakest most of the game.
QB - B- (no TO's; seemed like AJ found some confidence in the 2nd half)
RB - B

Not sure who to fault on all the screen pass and other flubs. Seemed like good play calls but poor execution.

DL - C; were dominated early but apart from the long run to start the 2nd they played great in the 2nd half.

LB - B; Kwon looked awesome; MLB play was awful. Welter gets dragged around like a wet doll and run over at the point of attack and evidentally Beckwith with all his measurables and talent doesn't know where to be. We have to find another dominant MLB somewhere on this roster. Welter is not D1 SEC talent.

DB - A+ Nuff said. Outstanding DB play. Allowed for the box to be stacked to stop the run in the second half. Admittedly they had no receivers.
