If we take Luke Kuechly who plays MLB?

I really like this guy.He may not address our most glaring need but I feel there is something special about this guy.....his intangibles point to an over achiever who I feel is worthy of consideration.To bad your nose for the ball cannot be measured at the combine.

Rip me about this guy and eat your words in a couple of years http://www.derp/2012/3/2/2838294/past-and-present-luke-kuechly-vs-dan-morgan

Then he will need to get much better in pass coverage

That's one of his strongsuits, he plays well in Man to man and in zone against TE's and slot WR's. He showed this consistently while at BC.

Aaron Curry v2.0

You don't draft a great tackler in the Top 10.

He's not just a great tackler, he's really good in coverage and excellent between the trenches against the run. His athleticism will allow him to learn how to blitz the QB easily.

He's got sky high intelligence, football instincts, plenty of strength, speed and athleticism that he isn't Aaron Curry 2.0, not even close to it.

I'd take him happily if we could manage to trade back.

His combine plus his game tape has put him into the top 15. So trading back isn't going to cut it. There's a few teams between 11 and 15 that will take him and I doubt he falls past the Eagles.

I agree with you however I do not think he will be the BPA when we pick. If we take him, I will be behind him though.

    • It’s not new. That particular claim has largely disappeared because it has become untenable, but a few games into his rookie year when the playbook/gameplan/personnel/everything was terrible there was endless claims, posts, even threads made that Bryce Young was physically incapable of throwing the ball 20 yards downfield in the NFL. It was also argued that physically throwing the ball 20 yards in the NFL was somehow different than college. Once he threw the ball 20 yards, the goal posts moved to 30 yards, etc. I’m not going to use the search function for you, the point wasn’t as much that one claim as it was that that was one claim out of many that has made it very difficult to have a reasonable discussion here.
    • I mean, I can get a ball downfield 40 yards.  There would be a couple massive issues with me doing it.   My ball placement would be off the charts bad.  Second, for me to get it 40 yards I'm gonna have to moon it......which would give DBs the opportunity to make plays on balls that wouldn't exist if a better QB were throwing it.  Which is all an exaggerated explanation of the Bryce issue.  To many play the literal game w/ Bryce when it comes defending him.  Every NFL QB likely can loft one up around 50 yards.  Every QB in the NFL can't get a ball 30 yards downfield in the same windows.  Or the same ball placement.  That's the Bryce issue.    But I also think mixed into that is just his QB DNA.    Take a young Brees, it was in his DNA to stress defenses and takes shots.  He would flat out be Delhomme-ish at times.  Which is coverage and assignment altering.  Brees would throw balls into triple coverage 40 yards downfield.  Is that smart? Sometimes it is.  Not because the play gets made but you force the secondary to play honest.  
    • Tbf were not going to the superbowl this year so the development of our young wr is invaluable  As a side note 5 of our wr are in their 2nd year or less ( t Mac, Coker, tremayne, horn, x)  It's def a promising youth movement
