Being an avid ACC football fan, I have watched Luke the last few years.

Despite having a solid LB core already, I'll be damned if I didn't say to myself a half dozen times while watching him play that I would love to see him in silver, black and blue. And now I can say I can see him in those 3 colors for years to come :).

Must of taken you hrs to find that less than flattering evaluation.....

Out of curiosity, who wrote that....I noticed you didn't link it

It was actually the first link that popped up.

Oh noez! Not everyone is impressed by our "solid" LB!!!

Thank god I didn't get on here last night.

I will pull for this guy for years to come, and I really do believe that he will be a very good pro.

I had a bad feeling that he or Coples was the pick, and I really didn't want either of them.

My disgust comes from the fact that I hate the way that Hurney values certain positions on the football field, and that we seem to continually draft those positions high. IMO and that is very important, I just don't think that 43 LB's, and high rated RB's are the way to go when drafting high.

Let's go Luke.

Joe Person said today that Rivera got a "tip" on Kuechly from ex-Bears teammate Jim Morrissey, whose son was a teammate of Kuechly at BC.

As with real world jobs, sometimes who you know can mean as much as (or more than) your actual qualifications.

(not to say that Kuechly isn't qualified; just talking about the process)

lol....desperation continues.

The suggestion it took hrs to find a negative article was bc everyone respected in the business has been positive about Luke.

The suggestion implied it would difficult to find anyone worth a poot talking negatively.

You went out and found a female MMA blogger.....cut and pasted negative talk leaving all that out.....trying to act like someone supported your stance that matters.

You are so blind with Luke hate you don't even realize what you just posted was utter poo.

Good day, sir.

Per Greg Gabriel of NationalFootballPost.com

• I thought Carolina would go for a defensive lineman because of the trouble they had stopping the run but in Matt Keuchly they got perhaps the best inside linebacker prospect in years. Look for them to grab a defensive tackle in round 2.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By Jackson113.2 · Posted

      MORGAN ON PLAY CALLER FOR CANALES   "I think that's really his [Canales'] call," he stated. "I think if he wants to promote somebody into being the play-caller or bring somebody from the outside. We haven't really talked about that. But that is something that I'm sure we'll talk about. We talk about every decision together. If he feels like he needs to add somebody or promote somebody into being the play-caller, then I trust him."

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent after losing Horn. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.
