Speaking of players... meet the next Luuuke

So with the craze of nfl cuts and players coming and going I was watching the Wake Forest vs Utah State game and couldn’t not post about it. It was everything we love about college football. I believe there was like 1500 total yards of offense by both teams and like 8 2nd half lead changes.  But what shocked me was #9 LB Woodward from USU.  This linebacker ladies and gentleman needs to be on our radar for next draft. This is your next Luke Kuechly. Dude had 25 tackles last night and was rated the best linebacker in the country by PFF and also a first team all American. 

2018 stats 134 tackles 5 sacks 2 INTs 2 FFs 12.5 TFL and PFF said out of 13 games rated the highest with only 2 missed tackles all season.

If this guy has the same attributes as Luke has we would have 2 GOAT LB's and could switch them out giving them a rest period each quarter.

Well we do have 2 MLB positions now, and he could replace Shaq. You don’t take Luke off the field ever though.....

You could if they both had same abilities and did identical things and play at the same level Luke could get a rest while the other guy would keep the QB's honest. Taking Luke out would be a mistake but 2 Luke's would spell disaster to teams.

Guy might be a MLB prospect, might even be good.

But seriously, there is only one Luke, and it's becoming more and more difficult to say he's not the GOAT.  Three more years at the level he's currently playing and it won't even be open for debate.

    • They traded away their 1st next year also to get James Pearce Jr. Really hope this blows up in the Falcons face. I don't care how it happens, I just want to win the division this year. Zero sympathy for other team's issues. And our pass rush looks like it needs all the help it can get.
    • I would have released him this season, tbh and worked with Christensen out there. 
    • 10/10. We're due for some good luck, and I think this team is much better than what we've had the last 2 seasons. Defensive injuries could derail us b/c our depth there is still questionable. Still worried about the pass rush getting pressure without blitzing. Pleasantly surprised by the secondary and run defense.  Dan Morgan has done a lot to resurrect this roster from the deplorable position Fitterer left it in by showing some scouting chops with hitting on these guys drafted in the later rounds or UDFAs. Lathan Ransom & Corey Thornton both look like they fit this scheme and the NFL isn't too big for them.  I'm as excited for the rookie trifecta of T-Mac, Scourton, and Princely as I can remember. On paper, this offense is the most talented since 2021, maybe 2017, and maybe 2015. None of that means this team will produce any better, but this team has offensive talent & depth like we have rarely had in team history. If you don't believe me, go Google it. We've had some awful offensive collections overall in many years, to varying degrees mitigated by superstar talents like Steve Smith, Christian Mccaffrey, or Cam Newton.  I honestly think the collective offensive talent in 2025 may be better, but Cam was so otherworldly in 2015 & 2017 that he covered any flaws. Seriously, though, Cam doesnt get enough love for 2017. I think that may have been his best season. In general, Cam doesn't get enough respect IMHO. Both in college and in the NFL, Cam took teams that without him would have had no chance and won. True definition of a guy who elevated his team. To be clear, I am in no way am I saying this team will be better than 2017 or 2015. My point is that the offensive talent is there on offense if Bryce can unlock it.  I've been a Bryce supporter, but there are no excuses not to perform with this group. This isn't the disaster we gave him in 2023 or a new scheme like in 2024 where I think he hadn't mentally removed from his rookie season to start. I dont know how you couldnt be excited about that. And we still compete in a division that isn't insurmountable. I got got in 2023 like most of us in buying into the team propaganda, but in general, I think I'm pretty realistic about the team. I knew in my heart we would be bad last year. I wasnt expecting the defense to be that bad or Bryce to start off that poorly, but I had no expectations whatsoever for making the playoffs. And I genuinely think we will be competitive all year this season. I think we win 8-9 games and compete for the division. I think the ceiling is 11 wins, and the floor is 7. The good news is after next week, we will all be proven right or proven wrong. Keep Pounding!
