From the article...

 

Luke:

 

Maybe the best defensive player in football this side of J.J. Watt.

 

 

Bene:
 

Benwikere narrowly makes this list over guys like Kyle Fuller, K'Waun Williams, Jason Verrett and E.J. Gaines. The rookie out of San Jose State did not allow a touchdown reception last season despite playing nearly 500 snaps.

Yeah, Luke's age has always been one of my biggest points about what makes him so good and valuable.  I don't think a lot of people realized he was 20 going into his rookie year after as well as he played... they just assumed he was older.

 

I was kinda' dumbfounded when I found out he was only 21 after he won the DROY.  Just the fact he played the game like a hardened veteran and had such an advanced football IQ at his age was crazy.

 

He's going to be ridiculous once he gets around 28 or so, which is usually an athlete's peak.

Davis

Kuechly

 Benwikere

Harper

Boston

Klein

 

That is a lot of intelligence behind the front 4.  They all seem articulate, cerebral, etc.  in interviews, and it shows on the field.  Character matters too--and they have it.

 

(Sorry Norman, you do not make this list because you have a bit of a history and you HELD THE INTERCEPTION WITH ONE HAND WHILE CROSSING THE FIELD WHEN EVERYONE IN THE STADIUM AND OUT OF IT KNEW THAT FALLING DOWN WAS THE SMART MOVE!!!)

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
