Morse is good at C, but him looking at retirement is a big question. Both Gs need upgraded. They got abused, badly. Davis is too hot and cold. When he's on, he's scary good. But when not, yeah. Diggs is good at 1. Shakir is still young, give him another year at least to see what happens.

How did Allen not dominate in college?

Well, none of them married their sisters, so I leave that one in your court. -

12 are currently in the NFL. https://www.ourlads.com/ncaa-football-depth-charts/active-nfl-players-by-college/wyoming/92568 Of that 12; Gentry, Wilson, Hollister, Granderson, Epps, and Roullier all played with Josh. Gentry, Hollister, and Roullier were on that 2016 offense. -

That's not far off. His very first year, he actually had to go medical redshirt because he broke his collarbone in his first game. He showed flashes of the determination, and refusal to stop that we see so much, but that was about it before he went down. 2016 is when he took off. Yeah, QB coaching was lacking, to say the least. But he showed flashes of what he could do. Some of which, no one in the NFL could. And some of those teammates he had that year, are still in the NFL. Like Tanner Gentry (his go to guy in 2016). And his runningback was Brian Hill, who set almost all the rushing records at Wyoming. 2017, Josh lost pretty much all of his main targets, runningbacks, and center. So, yeah. His stats plummeted. It would be like take his top 3 targets on the Bills right now, shoving them off to another team, and bringing in complete rookies to take over. But yeah, his short throws were his bane, because no one taught him how control and touch. But his medium throws were okay, and long throws were a sight to behold. -
But when Josh IS the running game, that's not a great thing. I, personally, am not saying our RBs are bad. But the run blocking is not helping things. Sure, sometimes they get a good play. Other times, the RBs have to make their own play, or are lucky to get to the line of scrimmage, if not get tackled for a loss.
