A player that was often talked about coming out of high school, Washington's Ed Dalton came into the NCAA as runningback. His elite level potential and all-around skills as a pure athlete had many coaches confused on just what to think of Dalton. He lacked the elite speed that many top recruits had yet when you turned on his tape he just made plays. Washington didn't hesitate to offer this young talent and were excited when he signed his letter of intent. With intentions of being an offensive weapon at many positions it didn't take long for the staff to decide that WR was the spot that made the most sense. Not only did Dalton settle in quickly but he has taken off. His 637 receiving yards ranks 5th in the nation and is over double the next best player on the Husky roster. His 4 touchdowns tie him with fellow WR Aaron Bernal for the team lead. While he may not wow teams with his deep speed, his unique quickness and smarts have him quickly becoming the go-to guy in the Pacific Northwest.
