“I’d say Bobby has a more all-around game than Luke has, as far as using his hands and being able to play off blocks,” Morgan said. “But when Luke is left free, when you don’t block him, he’s going to make the play. He just has a really good feel and instincts that help him shoot gaps.

 

“They’re both excellent football players. They’re both in the very top of their category. But they’re different players, even different body types. And the difference is that Bobby’s a better athlete where Luke is just that instinctive guy. He’s going to see it and go get it.”

 

 

 

Luke is an athletic freak of nature. Why do people assume he is just a smart player?

I think it's much like the Willis v Beason debate.

Willis is the superior athlete; Beason wasn't far behind but had far superior instincts and football IQ.

There's no LB in the game I'd take over Luke. He's not even scratching the surface of what he can do.

 

Not really. Lets take a look at the important measurables for a linebacker from their combine performance (Wagner didn't do the combine, he did a pro day)

 

Winner in bold....

 

                                      Luke                                Bobby

 

20 yard dash                2.59                                   2.64

10 yard dash                1.56                                   1.57

Bench Press                 27                                       24

Vertical                          38                                      39.5

20 yard shuttle             4.12                                    4.28

3 cone                          6.92                                   7.10

 

 

 

As a physical prototype middle linebacker, Luke wins hand down.

Not to derail this thread but Patrick Willis was/is the better linebacker than Beason...Beason was a top 5 lber to but the physical size speed combo Willis has is still quite unmatched.

Kuchley has the size speed thang. Bobby Wagner has it too....just be glad we got one of them.

Both are better than Dan Morgan.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
