Kick the tires maybe, but for a guy like that, injuries most likely took away his elite talent. And for most of that time, he played on a top DL (probably the only elite unit Washington has)
You know he suffered a catastrophic knee injury, correct?
At the time, it was widely acknowledged it would be more than a calendar year recovery, might keep him completely out for 2022.
Washington can't bet 17.5M on him, that make sense. But his timeframe on recovery always had 2022 in question.
Put it this way: of Young replicates his rookie year, he's making 17.5M in 2024 from somebody.
Unusual knee injuries like what you just described are very difficult to recover from for someone like Chase Young who is almost completely reliant on speed to beat linemen off the edge.
I'd kick the tires if the medical checked out but at best he'd be a rotational piece, not a decisive pickup on a Super Bowl contender

Chase Young has 1.5 sacks in 12 games. He has 5 quarterback hits in those 12 games and 18 solo tackles

I don't think he'll ever be the same player due to that catastrophic knee injury. So much of his talent was dependent on speed off the edge, not bull rushes. I mean if he's at a low price, sure, take the chance. But the chances he'll be the same as he was in his rookie year are very very slim

He was terrible in 2021 before the knee injury. Played the majority of the snaps too, just didn’t standout at all. He was a body on the field and that defense regressed heavily. Was he playing inured? Maybe. Did teams figure him out? Maybe.

Christian, I havent read that article, but given that injury, he would need multiple seasons of double digit sacks, not the 7.5 from his rookie year to get 17.5/year. Haason Reddick doesnt get that. Randy Gregory didnt get that
Chase Young played one year surrounded by all stars. It sucks he had his injury, but that even furthers my point....he isnt more promising than Kayvon as bw is saying.
Chase Young may very well become a great player, but until he does it again, even having him in the same conversation as KT who by all accounts is a fantastic teammate, is a tremendous teammate, works his ass off and has shown more versatility than Young, Walker or Hutch did after their rookie years is something to mock.
I still would have wanted Sauce, but KT is looking like a very unique player who can ruin game plans.
Not sure how it you say that...his year this year was almost identical to his rookie year when he won ORY. That, and his lateral movement is hfar more important as a RB than that of a DE.
I don't think anyone actually categorized Engram as an outright bust.
DeAndre Baker and Eli Apple were busts.
The point isn't - just for clarity - that Young should replace KT. The point is that if the opportunity was right, Young would be worth the risk due to his high ceiling skills. That seems more than reasonable.
Alas, a few posters struggle with that idea because I dare say Young is more gifted than KT. Which makes we wonder if they are confusing KT with LT...? ;)

Young talk aside, I am bullish on KT's future. I think he showed a lot his rookie season. And he was held like 450385035838508353858385380538 times with no flag.

When has Young shown to be more gifted than KT as a pro. Coming out, I could agree he looked to be perennial All Pro...but never really did much.
And yes, I would take him in a heartbeat...

Like I posted above, that he suffered an exceedingly rare injury where his ACL and patellar tendon tore at the same time, indicated he was injured before. That's the information I read at the time.
Do you remember any reporting teams were playing him differently and figured him out?
By the way, can someone please tell me why Saquon only got 10 mill and Chase got 17 for 5th year options seeing as how they were drafted at the same spot? You cant honestly tell me that 2 years equals 7 million more for the option....
Young had 7.5 sacks his rookie year. KT had 4. Young forced 4 fumbles. KT 2.
Further, KT was playing with two very good DLs in LW and DL last year. So, please spare me the "Young was playing with more talent" nonsense...
Look, Young has been hit with injuries and is now a huge question mark going forward. But let's not act like the guy has done nothing when healthy.
For the biased:
Thibs missed start of season with a knee injury and key parts of his DL were banged up or out (Ojulari) for stretches. But don’t let facts get in the way of your opinion.

I assume the salaries of other players at your position are factored in the option.
haha you read my mind. He sure is busy around here....
Not just the maroon and yellow, but the continued shots on Giants players that he would prop up if they were in Washington and elsewhere.
Otherwise, I'd have expected some discussion about KT having the highest pressure rate, over 10%, among the top 3 DE's in the draft. Young has never broke that mark, even in a rookie year that is being made out to seem like he was Superman.
Ironic that bw would do that and then crack that KT is being confused with LT. The good thing for the board is that as the Giants continue to win, you'll see less of the Commander fan.

Exactly. He missed the first 4 games(?) and THEN at that point took several more games to have his “preseason” conditioning kick in
Who is THIS guy?

It’s plausible for sure but in my uneducated medical opinion, many of these knee tears were already partial tears that finally gave away so I’m not sure how unique this case is, certainly nothing definitive. We see players regress all the time year 2 so I’m not willing to rule that out.
But my main point in all of this isn’t even to shit on Young’s production, rather, it’s to express why calling him a player with more upside/higher ceiling than KT is bogus. That wasn’t your claim, but that’s been my position in this thread.

Re-read the thread. Someone suggested KT had this great rookie year compared to CY's rookie year. Which isn't true if anybody pays any attention to the rest of the league, and why I brought up to dispute the asinine assertion.
And that's always been an Achilles Heel of BBI because most of the board is clueless about the rest of the league.
Wink said Thibs is the "can opener" and that he does a lot of things that don't show up in stats but significantly help others get free. I am expecting a very big year from him and with the hopefully improved run D more opportunities to get the QB.

Let me apologize for my ridiculous assertion that CY, if healthy, is still immensely talented. And could be worth a roll of the dice if the price is right...
Outrageous.

Thanks Lines. Somebody else mentioned this, but I had never seen a D player get heald as blatantly nor as often as KT was. Some of it was laughably bad where he was headl9cked and dragged down.
(admittedly like 90% of bbi I wanted us to lose out to ensure we drafted Young)
Ditto for Campbell. Glad we have him but he’s not coming out of college anymore and his potential isn’t nearly as great as it once was. These are all things you’d agree with if it was a player there Giants drafted.
Lol, nobody said that!

Let's review. Who said this above:
Yes, turning down a 5th year option, especially when it might represent a bargain at an extremely expensive position, is always an indicator that the team believes that player is not elite.
Good thing the Giants have never done anything like that.
I mentioned this above, too. That is the potential big red flag because Washington has the most information. And they are led by a head coach who specializes in defense.
It's very complicated. It could be Washington thinks CY is just done physically. And they don't want to wait any longer. Or it could be they just don't like he's the right fit as a personality and feel it's time to cut bait. There has been talk CY may not be a team first personality who is all in.
The amount of $$$ they have invested in their DL and Montez Sweat, who has been the superior player, is set to be a UFA next year. They can't resign him and are looking to recoup value. The tag may even be prohibitive with the money invested there.

Youre putting words in my mouth. I never referred to Thib's year as great. It started slow, but picked up steam at about the midway point. I said KT showed a lot more in terms of thongs he did for his defense and CY benefitted much more from having the linemates that he did. Sure 7.5 sacks is a nice rookie year. How often did you see him dropping into coverage? He wasn't making hustle plays that KT did. Then the next year, in 12 games, he sucked ass before getting hurt.
YOU on the other hand made this ridiculous claim:

We have already established that KT can actually play a little coverage, and even if "healthy", nobody comes back 100% from the injury that Young had. As far as their college days, KT was forecasted as potentially the number 1 pick for 2 years. Young, didnt get that hype until middway through the '19 season.

Who said always? Perhaps another dumb moment from you.
But this was his next sentiment:
A team would have to compel the Commanders to trade Young, they aren't dumping him.
Young is 1.5 seasons removed from his injury, which was the projected timeline for the recovery. He's on a very reasonable deal that pays him 5.3M in new money this year. He's not getting dumped.
So the question is would the Giants trade presumably a meaningful amount and take on 5.3M for Young?

Teams coming out of the spring thinking they need more help may make trade calls on Young (it seems unlikely the Washington brass would move him ahead of a must-win year, but I know they’d be open to listening).

Your entire post is spot on. It's exactly right.The only thing that's off is that the Skins would trade him for a reasonable deal within the division. NFW. If, as you said, 1.5 years is what he needed to get fully back and he records 8 sacks and 4 forced fumbles again, that org will be eviscerated by their fans.

GD, while at first I thought you were being sarcastic and condescending wiith your post, it actually makes total sense given what the Giants did with Jones. Jones didnt have the catastrophic knee injury, but a good rookie year followed by 2 more years of being dealt bad cards with coaching, OL and Saquon being out. The Giants declined the 5th year ootion and demanded he show them why he should be their starting QB. Which obv he did.
Chase had very good production his rookie year, then fell off for most of his 2nd year, had the terrible injury, is due 17 million on the 5th and as someone pointed out, they just handed out big contracts to Payne aand Allen. Sweat is set to be a FA and they cant pay 17 million to CY and make an offer to Sweat. But if he produces his rookie year numbers, maybe that is something to re-visit.
YOU on the other hand made this ridiculous claim:

Do you want to review what Sy thought about Young coming into the NFL? How about Jeremiah?
For example, Sy gave KT an 83 grade. Which translates to a player who should be able to play and contribute right away.
Young? Sy gave him a 91. Which translate to an All-Pro caliber player.
That's a pretty distinct difference.
I'm not on an island here. Many football people viewed Young as a player who had/has elite talent.
And I'm not suggesting, btw, that KT can't be great. I'm still bullish on Young's talent and think he'd be worth the stretch if the right deal could be had...
