Micah McFadden

Has a 90 PFF grade. He ranks as elite. Also graded out as elite last year in many games. I know PFF is just one way to judge a player, but PFF seems to think very highly of him. They also ranked the Giants off-ball LB group as top 5 heading into the year.

I think he is a solid, above average LB. Okereke is better but Micah is good. Micah’s short arms and tackling is an issue at times, but he’s almost always in the right spot. He’s very athletic too.

My question, for others who pay more close attention to LB play than I do - has he actually been as good as the PFF grades would indicate?
I think

He’s a good downhill backer. Very quick and decisive. Don’t think he’s a plus cover guy.

I like him, great value in the draft. Not a star, good solid player who gets a lot of TFL. Misses more than I’d like, but I can live with it. We’ve got some talent on D, still need a true CB1.
I like McFadden

very good blitzer. seems to take good angles. If he was a better tackler he would have pro bowl status.
his missed tackles are an issue

He rarely is able to make an unassisted tackle. Maybe i'm just looking for it.. but do agree, if he fixes that... he's a very good player. Right now, i have him at slightly above average due to his lack of wrapping up and bringing down ball carriers.

Least of our worries

Just let the gay play and get better.

Far more issues to solve for this team.
He was so obviously held on that TD

Oh I’m not worried about MM. Just wondering if the play matches the grade. He’s part of the core IMO.
