Are you saying you THINK he’s GOING to be better? Or he is better? Yes, the latter. He will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got a nickname... Not one I made up, so it’s not great. But it’s The Predator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes way more sense than Wolverine for that idiot receiver who sucked for the Jets, I think it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 There is no real downside whatsoever to Chase Young. Incredible talent, great work ethic, impeccable character, terrific teammate, no injury history. And its not like he didn't produce in college and is just some workout warrior, he put up dominant numbers and in the Big 10 too which tends to produce quality OL. The only real potential downside there might be is the hometown factor. He might get distracted by family/friends of his past. But it seems like he's got a good upbringing and that won't bother him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 The downside to Chase Young has nothing to do with Chase Young. It’s the fact that if Haskins doesn’t turn out, we still don’t have a QB. But we’d still likely win too many games to be in the top end QB hunt in the 2021 Draft. But win too few to be excited about. Haskins is a tremendous wild card. It doesn’t matter how you feel about him. Lover, hater, agnostic... doesn’t matter. He is the wild card right now. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one downside that I can think of and it only relates to the alternative to taking him.....injury/the great unknown. We lost out on Sua Cravens because of bull**** unknowns....if some team offers us multiple picks for our #2 it has to be considered just because of this reason alone. If a Reuben Foster injury happens to Chase vs. having 4 or 5 high picks, I wonder how much that plays into things for the organization? It's a realistic concern. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haskins is a tremendous wild card. It doesn’t matter how you feel about him. Lover, hater, agnostic... doesn’t matter. He is the wild card right now. Yeah that weighs on me just a little. I just keep in mind that Russell Wilson went in the 3rd, so it's rare of course to snag a dude in that round. Aaron Rodgers went 24th just before us (damn!) so that can happen and if we are picking there then that is good news. Hopefully Haskins has a nasty good year and we don't got to worry about it. He just needs to be good if our D is top notch and we will be competitive. Trading back may be dangerous because who knows if the Giants go for Simmons. Getting him and the 18th pick and a 2nd and 1st next year would be cool with me, but I doubt I could pass on Chase at this point. FO is different now and they can the right moves I am sure.

That shouldn't be a factor unless a guy has a known injury history. Young has none. Cravens was a 2nd round pick. Not really the same since scouts/personnel people probably don't dive into those guys backgrounds as much as they would for a top 5 pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he would take Tua over Burrow. The Tua train is in high gear and he hasn't even been able to work out yet. He also said he believes the Skins are throwing smokescreens out there about taking a QB when he has no doubt they will take Chase Young. We are in a very interesting spot because I still believe teams are gonna try and come up to get Tua.....once we take Young Detroit is gonna have some jackpot offers if they want to drop back.....
