The Seahawks playoff game deflection was the best play I've ever seen any linebacker make in coverage. The Romo first pick speaks to how smart he is and how he's the general of our defense but the play in the Hawks game is just truly unbelievable, like I still can't really believe that it happened. So glad we've got this guy and Cam locked up.

 

On a side note, when was this filmed? Was it before Josh signed with the Skins or was he wearing a Panthers shirt as a Redskin?

Yeah, it's one thing to be football smart and know everything your opponent will do before they do it, but do you have the physical tools to stop it?

Luke does and it's HOF level talent.  Scary and awe inspiring to watch.

It's something beyond physical tools. There are linebackers in this league who are faster and more athletic and can jump higher and further, with longer arms, etc. who could never make that play from the Hawks game (and I'm not talking about some practice squad workout warrior who doesn't know which way is up, but about other smart players, even pro bowlers). And frankly that wasn't a play that you need to be extremely smart to make. It was something otherworldly.

I was pissed when we drafted him. Called him a skinny bitch. 

 

Last time ive ever questioned a draft pick. I couldnt have been more wrong. What a phenominal player. 

Had you even seen him? He was prototypical size.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
