Scrape exchange
What it is
The end takes the dive and the linebacker scrapes over the top to take the quarterback, swapping their normal option responsibilities.
Why it matters
Answer to a quarterback who is reading the end. Because the end crashes the dive every time, the read is corrupted; the scraping linebacker replaces him as the quarterback player. Timing is everything - a late scrape leaves the edge unmanned.
