      Ras! Good to see you again.

      From Detroit, the fans are already bitching and the Leos haven't even done anything yet!

        If I were king of the world I'd ban all interviews during the draft and limit highlights to 30 seconds total. I'd also mandate the discussion turn to the next pick immediately after the previous pick was made.

            CHASE YOUNG
            EDGE, Ohio State

            CONF Big Ten - East JERSEY #2 CLASS Junior HT 6'5" DOB 04/14/1999 WT 265 lbs
            ANALYST'S REPORTS
            MarinoHarrisReidCrabbs
            PROS: Lean, muscular build engineered for playing 4-3 defensive end. Powerful, physical and disciplined run defender. Sets firm edges and process the run very well. Extremely comfortably stepping down, taking on pullers and squeezing gaps. Keeps working his hand fits throughout each rep to control blockers. Pass rushing skill set is elite. Fluid release out of his stance with rapid accelerating while generally anticipating the snap well. Works his feet and upper body to draw offensive tackles out of their pass sets, creating rush angles and favorable opportunities to attack the pocket. Quickly eats up turf with his stride, but also knows how to vary his steps to set up his rush plan. Impressive moments where he gets to half man when the blocker thinks he’s square. Has the flexibility needed to reduce his surface area and corner. Understands rush angles. Hand work and rush variety is incredible. Has no shortage of combos and he always has a plan. Each game is a showcase of that variety and he’s effective with dip/rip, chop/swim, long-arm stabs, club/rip, cross/chop, speed-to-power, lift and straight speed rush. Snatch and push/pull are also present. Fluid in coverage drops with a clear understanding of his landmarks and spacing. Effortless change of direction ability and he easily flows laterally towards the sideline.

            CONS: Young can do a better job with his pad level in some reps. There are instances where he pops straight up out of his stance. Other times he’s upright by step three of his rush. If he’s dropping in coverage, it’s easy to pick up based on his stance; weight is all almost all back on his feet and stance can be frog-like.

            BEST TRAIT - Pass Rush

            WORST TRAIT - Pad Level

            RED FLAGS - None

            NFL COMP - Jevon Kearse

            Chase Young is a rare defensive prospect with an elite overall skill set. Projecting most favorably to a role at the next level as a 4-3 defensive end, Young is without limitations and any minor concerns about his projection to the next level are minor. Young profiles as an instant impact edge defender with the upside to become one the NFLs most prolific defensive playmakers. He’s polished, powerful, athletic and features every desirable physical trait needed to excel in the NFL. Young is a top of the first round talent in any draft.

              They're calling Chase Young "The Predator" - Ummm, no, there is only one predator and that was Al Harris

                That relative of Chase a Young wore his dress sweats for the broadcast
                Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                    Those drafts sucked if you had been drinking all day at the bar.

                      Now it gets interesting. Lot of talk that teams would try to trade up to #3. Lions probably want Okudah.

                        Probably Joe.....unless someone blows them away I would guess they keep the pick after Slay left.
