DE Chase Young (Nagurski, Hendricks, Bednarik, Silver Football, NFL DROY, New Orleans Saints)

SKULL SESSION: JOSH FRYAR DISCUSSES HIS NEW BUCKEYE FAMILY, TERRY MCLAURIN THINKS CHASE YOUNG IS BETTER THEN EITHER BOSA, AND GUNNAR HOAK IS HAPPY TO BE A BUCKEYE

BEST OF THE BEST.
Terry McLaurin is part of an extremely small group of Buckeye alums who got to see Joey Bosa, Nick Bosa and Chase Young each in action during his time in Columbus.

And if you make him tell you which one is better, he's picking Chase Young ahead of the two consensus rookie of the years.

Redskins receiver Terry McLaurin is in a unique position; he was a Buckeye himself from 2015-18, so he has played with the Bosa brothers -- each of whom won NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year -- in addition to Young. Out of those three, McLaurin thinks Young has the potential to be the best.

"I've seen them all," McLaurin told Voice of the Redskins Larry Michael and staff writer Kyle Stackpole on Radio Row ahead of Super Bowl LIV. "In college, I felt like Chase was the most productive of the three, and he has a chance to possibly be the best. That doesn't take anything away from [Joey and Nick]. That just tells you how good he can be."

I get it. As incredible and technically perfect as Nick and Joey are, neither of them look like a realistic incarnation of a mythical 90s alien race of sport hunters. Young is terrifying physically, and if he's even 80 percent as technically gifted as either Bosa, McLaurin's prophesy is going to come true.

Just sayin': Terry McLaurin could very well be right; however, I just wonder what he'd be saying if he was on the 49ers or Chargers team, in lieu of the Redskins who hold the #2 pick in the 2020 NFL draft.
He could be better..but it’s on him and how he’s used by the DC. I think Nick had an easier transition line him up as a 4-3 end and let him play. I think the strength and quality of NFL tackles will make it necessary to use Young more creatively. He struggled when faced with more scrutiny from the Offense. Nick more Bruce Smith, Deacon Jones. Young more Khalil Mack, Kevin Greene..

Smart. Nothing to prove and only injury to risk.

Never understood that. It’s obvious he’s the best pass rusher in the draft. Is someone else going to get taken ahead of him because they have a better vertical or sprint speed? Is he guaranteed to be the best? No. We see all the time that the first player taken at a position isn’t always the best at that position but as of today, Chase Young is the guy you put money on.
