On pure scrapper teams imo it's every man for himself. You don't replace controllers or blasters because A: you can't and B: there is no need. Only buffs you get are your own but that's ok because your a scrapper and awesome is your middle name and there are 7 others just like you close by!

Well, the awesome is true, but I reject utterly that word you used, namely, 'can't.'
Screw 'can't.' Scrappers CAN.
I spent a couple of beers and a few minutes on the below build for a blaster-scrap. It ain't close to perfect, but I suspect would get the job done well:

All Scrapper STF has been done multiple times already. Basically bring your best built toon and everyone goes ball-to-the-walls all out.
As for LR, throw a softcapped Shielder at him with lots of defense and resist inspires. You want to get to 75% defense and cap resists to energy and lethal/smashing. For added padding, if the shielder has Broadsword or Katana and the team has lots of Tactics, use the +defense attack and stand somewhat close to the team.
For the Towers, lots of aoes to kill those repairmen quickly.
For Ghost Widow, only have the best defense rated toons with their aggro auras on. Multiple Grant Cover + Maneuvers will floor the chance for her to hit with that hold and her heal.
I've been on an all-Scrapper STF. We had several Shielders with Grant Cover which made things pretty easy. I don't recall Ghost Widow being much of a problem. It all went pretty smoothly if I recall correctly.

Also on Steam
There was some dying during Ghost Widow on the all-Scrapper STF I was on. But not enough for us to use any, you know, strategy. We all just jumped in and pounded on her until she went down. Had some trouble with the towers, but eventually powered through.

The funny thing is between tactics, maneuvers, grant cover and assault buffs you would thought it was a defender conference not a scrapper one.
Now mind you this was a group of us scrappers from the forum so we had a lot of high end builds and different flavors we had anything from fire/sd, katana/reg Broadsword/inv and spines/fire as examples it was a mixture and we rocked the house
