Washington is better the farther he is from the LOS. He works best as a deep safety for help over the top than a safety coming up and making the tackle.
Let's him use his speed, and less likely he has to tackle a RB or slot. He's pretty slender.

totally agree. Will Lowery wasn't a run stuffer either, but he was a nice piece of the puzzle on D that year.
i'd like to see our CBs do a much better job at tackling also. EJ got stiff armed way too many times and just didn't have much pop when tackling. Tony Brown was even worse. He got stiff armed or ran over almost every time he tried to tackle a RB. Cyrus didn't particularly shine in that area either.
I miss the guys like Kareem, Javy, Dre, and Dee. Those guys would light you up. Not sure which of that group was the best tackler. But they were all better than anything we had last year. The play in the Arkansas game where Dre K destroyed a WR and the play in the Michigan game where Dee destroyed Shoelace after an INT are two of my favorites from the saban era.
