Should go #2 in the draft. Amazing there isn't more talk about him.

I am actually surprised we aren't at the point where he is getting nitpicked. I expected at least a couple hot takes that he is a bit overrated or has issues with technique.

Nobody seems to know enough to either nitpick that or have an audience that will understand. "So when he lines up in the one technique off the [blank] gap..."

There are a few sights that do draft stuff year round who are pretty high level in those details (more than I generally am even interested in) so I think the audience exists. I seem to remember Joey Bosa kind of losing draft steam his year where it went from him clearly being the player in the draft to people not being so sure and saying more like just top 10.

There are indeed those sites. Usually the guys that write for the SB Nation fan sites are good for having a few articles a year about really technical line stuff. Always helpful. I can never remember what the heck the gaps and techniques are for the life of me, and I've brushed up at least ten-twenty times. My brother does by sight. He's a good soldier.

Who’s a better prospect....him or Nick Bosa last year?

All signs from scouts -- PFF especially -- point to Young as the better player.

What's there to say? Dude is probably a pro bowl player early.
He doesn't cover speedy receivers very well? Seriously there's very little to nitpick.
Very close. I think I take Chase but boss is, and was, awesome.

Don't forget Ryan Kerrigan, who is supposed to play with his hand on the ground this year at end if his services aren't let go. Jack Del Rio wants a 4-3, and all indications are that Kerrigan moves outside.
But bring on that Young train. Woot.

Young was really good this year. Missed a game and a half with a groin and probably needed to ramp up from that after, but if you had him in IDP in playoff weeks, he was a monster wks 14 and 16.

Well deserved. Just an absolute beast. As a Skins fan I haven’t been this excited to watch a generational talent like Chase since Sean Taylor.
Thanks again to the Giants for winning that meaningless game versus us in the “Chase Bowl”. Much appreciated.

It would be about time, I think. What a lousy year for the WFT and Chase Young, too.

Benched today against Tampa Bay for me. Rolling with JPP, Josh Sweat, and Marcus Davenport. Tired of waiting for this guy and Brady has the ball out in almost 1.5 seconds. Forget it.
It might came back to bite me, but I'll take my chances with Sweat and Davenport right now.

He's questionable. If he's out, I roll with Darrell Taylor.
Hey, thanks for the heads-up, though. It's quite possible I wouldn't have known that, but I'm on top of it this week. They assumed he would play and Denver's missing half their line. Hoping for a sack or even two.

Some guys just don't have the care factor. I kinda see that with Chase. Doesn't care enough to fight through injuries. Doesn't care enough to play within the scheme. Doesn't care enough to fight through the hard times. It's fine, a huge percent of people don't have that much less after they've made $xx million. And I'm well aware this is a guess of his character which I know nothing about, That being said, I think he's smart enough to care about his second contract. And if he wants a big payday from whatever team, he needs to ball out this year. So I expect a better season coming up for him.
Not too surprised he wasn't given the 5th year option. He's been good to great whenever he's been healthy, but the health has been a big issue.
I kind figured when they extended Payne (likely a bad decision) that at least one of Sweat or Young wasn't getting extended, and signs pointed to Young due to health.
If I were a GM I'd being trying to see how available Chase Young is right now, because he's probably still a better player than any EDGE rusher in this class other than Will Anderson when healthy.
