Somewhere between Magic and Penny.  Not quite as strong as Magic, and not quite as explosive as Penny, but already a better shooter than both, passing and playmaking ability is already on par if not better, and he has room to grow on the athleticism and strength.

This is exactly why I wanted him the entire time.  He is a superstar.

I see some Luka in game. Fearless young ball handler with size and strength to play 3 or 4 positions in this league.

He doesn't have the size or strength yet, but I think in a few more years as he grows into his body and keeps hitting the weight room he'll get it, which will only make him better. He definitely has shown the potential already to be the best PG in the league.

I dunno who he reminds me of, but it feels good for the hornets to finally draft a good player. Man, what a horrible history of drafting those idiots have. I could literally draft a better roster than the bobcats and hornets did from my couch.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
