EVERY draft pick is a gamble. Can an outstanding college talent transition to the pro level? Can a young man with insane amounts of money (for that age) and fame, avoid the temptations that they bring? Can this player avoid injury at the NFL’s increased speed and power?
I see exciting things for Chase based on a few factors:
1. Mentorship - Kerrigan will be able to mentor Young about taking care of his body, maturity and learning the tricks of the trade as a elite Edge player.
2. Coaches - The Redskins FINALLY have an excellent HC, who has built teams before and taken them to the top. They also have an outstanding Defensive Coordinator in Del Rio. Prior excellent talent like Sweat, Kerrigan, Allen, Payne and Ionnadis was freaking WASTED due to poor coaching by Manusky and the awful DC before him. People were criticizing Sweat for not enough sacks when he was dropping back in pass coverage 50% of plays!! Going from terrible to outstanding coaching is going to TRANSFORM this defensive squad.
3. New DEFENSIVE talent - besides Young, we will add at least Fuller and Davis to the mix. Outstanding coaching and teaching at Defense plus new talent is going to transform this squad.
Will Chase Young be a Star? A superstar? A draft bust? We do not know until he plays here. But he has the building blocks to excel if he can stay heathy, stay away from the party life, and learn from his mentors and coaches. I’m excited to see him grow here on a (future) very good defense!!
