DJ Beavers, UW's newest commit, told us this weekend that he's an OLB primarily because of his cover skills, in the minds of the UDUB coaches. He didn't do a lot to increase his brand, avoiding camps/combines/7on7's this year, but he's the kind of fast, disciplined player Washington's coaches want. The coaches also told him they wanted 3-4 LB's in this class because they felt short at the position.
