At the end of the day I can only hope for the best. Let's see what he looks like under Evero.

I'm enjoying the banter from both angles on this. The folks defending Morgan might wanna dig up some draft threads the last couple of years though. Ease up on the holier than thou a bit.

Brooks can play but 100% on Legette and this pick. 

Brooks can play, but his blew his knee out at the end of the football season.  Probably 2025 is when we really would see Brooks back in form.  Most guys aren’t a Peterson freak show.   They take time to get back up to where they were.

interesting, literally every weakness is coaching related. I guess they feel he didn't have good development at uk and they can provide it. He is Shaq's replacement, so he won't play much this year anyway. 

He will watch a ton of film, learn from the two vets in front of him, play special teams--remember, the focus is on developing him.  I wanted Wilson, but this tells me Wilson is not what he appears to be.  Hate it for him, because he can ball.

Purely speaking positional impact drafting RB and LB early in the draft has me nervous

The Ravens always value off ball linebackers early, seemingly they take one in the top 2 or so rounds every year. They are always regarded as one of the best drafting teams. I wouldn't worry too much.

Morgan was a big part of the worst rostered teams in the league for the past few years, this shouldn't surprise anyone. Pointless trade downs instead of just drafting BPA, drafting injured players, and reaching on RAS scoring players.............basically Fitterer 2.0.

Trevin Wallace

LB, UK

6-2 / 241 LBS

Grade Analysis

No grade analysis available.

Rating: 70.80 (Part-time contributor)
Pro Comparison: Kaden Elliss
Summary

Trevin Wallace is a stocky-ish but springy off-ball LB. Fast when he wants to be but really struggles beating blocks to the football. Will overtly avoid blocks to take himself out of the play on a routine basis. Not around the football much in coverage but demonstrated a keen sense of sinking in zone and has the athletic chops to run with TEs and RBs in man. That type of plus explosive athlete. Just doesn't always fully tap into it. Hip fluidity is good. Quality tackler. Rare to see a miss on film. Just needs to play with more authority/passion when tracking the football against the run. Has the explosiveness to be a stud blitzer but way too timid in those situations. Flexibility is lacking to work around the edges of blockers. Flashes of athleticism to be a good three-down 'backer in the NFL. Needs to crank the intensity tracking the football.

Strengths
  • Serious juice to the football when he sees his target
  • Fluid enough to sink in coverage
  • Awesome tackler
Weaknesses
  • Has huge problems beating blocks / tries to avoid them
  • Needs to play with more passion and energy

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

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
