25 Best Dwags Since 2000

I think it's pretty well established I'm a big McMillan guy. I was crying at some bar in Ballard when he got hurt against Michigan State the way I was when Locker got hurt against the Beav in 2007 and Coug fans were celebrating in the street ala Auburn fans when Bear Bryant died.
We've been through this before, but Murphy didn't play enough ball because of his injury and leaving after his redshirt Sophomore year to get on here. If we were just talking CBs I'd put Desmond Trufant on before him even though he kind of sucked his first three seasons.
 
The more I look at that list to replace guys with my list of exclusions (BBK, Rosengarten, Murphy, Polk/McMillan, Pickett, Race Porter), the only guy I definitely want to take off is…
Locker
I would consider taking McDuffie off of it. He didn't do enough at UW and others on that list were thrown into the fire as true freshman.
He's an elite NFL player and all time Husky royalty, just not sure about him as a college player compared to some others.
Maybe the 2020 Stanford pass(es) he gave up to lose that game stick in my mind too much.

This is a good one to question. Hindsight I'd probably take him off and someone who was more important to more important games gets that slot.
 
The trend this offseason is to play off they 25 best between the 25 last years. So who are the 25 best Dawgs of this millennium
25. TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins
24. DE Bralen Trice
23. LB Mason Foster
22. S Taylor Rapp
21. DT Larry Tripplett
20. CB Trent McDuffie
19. DE Hau'oli Kikaha
18. DT Vita Vea
17. CB Sidney Jones
16. WR John Ross
15. DT Greg Gaines
14. WR/PR Dante Pettis
13. T Troy Fautanu
12. T Kaleb McGary
11. LB Shaq Thompson
10. RB Bishop Sankey
9. RB Chris Polk
8. QB Jake Locker
7. WR Reggie Williams
6. QB Jake Browning
5. S Budda Baker
4. WR Rome Odunze
3. RB Myles Gaskin
2. QB Marques Tuiasosopo
If you're not limited to how many you can pick by position, then I'd punt Jake Browning and maybe Trice and make room for Jalen McMillan and Anthony Vontoure. For those of you who were still in diapers or whatever during his time, Vontoure was a beast and a fucking talent. Guy could do shit.

I absolutely would put Stevens over ASJ. Stevens was a beast. A knock you on your ass tight end with WR hands. Rare combo. Plus, he's Black Hills League tuff. @RaceBannon @dflea

Stevens is one of my most impressive on the field Huskies I can ever remember at any position. He's kind of the list of guys who were in the wrong era as he'd get way more targets if he played the past 10 years or so. Need to win one game with former Dwags and he's my TE. I just couldn't put him over ASJ because of production though. He only played in about 15 games 2000 and on. ASJ also again would have had a much bigger legacy had he played on better teams and would have ate big time on that 2000 team.

Purdue had an all American tight end in the Rose Bowl. He was a joke compared to Stevens
