I love Eric Dungey. I think you could make the case that he’s among the most important recruits we’ve ever had. His running skillset was perfect for last year’s team which had a very green group of WR’s. And now that the receiving group is not-so-green, we have Devito, who I suspect will be perfect for this year’s team. So the replacing Dungey’s running thing looks like an issue now but I suspect absolutely no one will be talking about it after say, the Maryland game.

We just had a season where Dungey ran for a ton of yardage/TD’s and we’ve collectively kind of forgotten what kind of passing stats can be attained in this offense. Let’s not forget that Erv Phillips caught 89 balls in a season in this offense. Jamal Custis, who was on a track of like 20 career catches before Dino decided to redshirt him, had 900 yards and 6TD’s. Zach Mahoney once threw for 440 yards in a game. I like those guys but they are non-difference making talent putting up difference maker stats.

The guys we have now like Trishton and Taj to me are closer to the fringe-y NFL talents of Ishmael(caught 105 balls, 1,347 yards, 7TD’s) and AET(94-1,482-14), and we seemingly have a QB better equipped to get them the ball, mainly because the word we hear about Tommy most often out of camp is….’accurate’.

And we lose Strickland and farm out all of his carries to Moe, Jarveon and Abdul, which is a net plus for me. So defenses can’t just sit and play the pass all day.
