I understand we have lots of other spots on D that need to be addressed, but I think this dude is the REAL MF DEAL. The guy isn't even 21 yet. He has led the nation the past two seasons in tackles. Having him and Beason on the same field for the next 7 years or so wouldn't even be fair. Go watch the tape. This dude does not miss tackles and has the instincts of a rabid wolverine. Hurney, pull the trigger.

No issue here with it....dude is flat out an all around great football player. He also made more plays BEHIND the line of scrimmage in college than guys like Willis or Beason.

Beason + Luke > Beason plus whoever. In a league where RBs and TEs have morphed into recieving options. LB is important despite what some claim.

LB play was worse than DL play last year. Beason coming back doesn't fix everything

It won't do any good to waste your time going back and forth because people don't value the position and have high hopes Beason will come back 100%. But i do agree that when you consider attitude, desire, work ethic, production, measurables, etc, I think he is the best defensive player in the draft and will make a big difference to whoever takes him. He is good enough to start day 1.

That is all I will say.

I totally agree with your point about the TEs in the league. It is a necessity on defense to have LBs that can lock up TEs. I've always hated Tony Gonzales burning us and of course Jimmy Graham is a problem. So a LB who is versatile along with Beason is a great addition. I'm excited about this pick!

      Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.

      I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.

      Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
