Luke Kuechly

I dont see it. I love Kuechly as a prospect, but we have too many needs this year, and we do too well with our picks under Reese to trade them away.

I also think you have to be careful not to "fall in love" with any 1 prospect, even if Luke is a stud prospect.

I dont see the Giants picking Kuechly but he wont be there anyway. I still think he is more of a WLB in the NFL. He isnt the most physical guy. I dont care what his tackle numbers say. Thin wast , doesnt have enough girth in the lower half.

I love people that ignore what a player did on the field and look at measurements. Its funny. Isnt physical? How did you get that? Because he looks like a nerd?</P>

This kid is going to be a stud LB in the NFL. </P>


And if you want measureables:</P>


6'3''1/4 242lbs 4.58 40 time (3rd fastest for LB) 38" vert</P>


532 Tackles in 3 years at BC, he knows where to be and how to bring down a player. </P>

You're assuming he is ignoring what he saw of Kuechly on the field. When you're going to be playing MLB in the NFL, not the ACC, your size can have an impact. Longer seasons and bigger guys hitting you. Biggers guys can get hurt just as likely, and playing with more physicality than form can also hurt you long term. So who is to say what would happen with Kuechly.

Reese has said multiple times that he has always learned to respect production

With Goff visiting other teams, if Kuechly drops to us he might very well be our pick.

I just don't see him dropping that far. Great productioin, great college career, solid school, no character issues, great Combine .... he's like the model of what to do as a draft prospect.

His only knock is that he plays a position that's disappearing in the NFL.

PFW's first mock has Kuechly dropping to us.</P>

They also have the Colts taking RG3, Richardson going ahead of Blackmon, Fleener and Mike Adams in the first round.

Meh.

Ha ha . . . yeah, they went out on a limb on a few picks, huh?</P>


I don't think that it is inconceivable that Kuechly could drop to us, just given the undervaluing of 4-3 MLB's over the last few years. Unlikley but not inconceivable. </P>

Well Kuechly could play the ILB in either 3-4 or 4-3.

Before the Combine he was a dark horse pick for us ... since then his draft stock has only climbed.

I wouldn't mind if that happened though [b]
