I don't follow him closely, but he was spot on with Luke:

'Overall, he doesn't play with ideal violence...'

I like DJ. Always seems honest and without any kind of agenda. One of the few talking heads I actually listen to.

Dan Morgan did and all that meant was that he stayed hurt himself. I'll take smart > violent all day any day, though I must admit that violent is fun to watch.

yea i wouldnt call Luke violent either in comparison to some other guys. not that he isnt a hard-hitter, but he doesnt use intimidation.

"Productive starter" is an understatement. It's like calling a dinosaur a lizard.

He certainly plays with intensity, focus, instinct, and just has a knack for getting in on the action. I think he brings the wood just fine.

I follow DJ on twitter, I don't follow many "scouts" or "analysts" but I like him. I can't remember who's pre draft thing he released a couple weeks ago but it was spot on as well.

I can admit I wasn't on the Luke bandwagon and was pretty pissed about the pick when it happened. Mainly because we were "deep" at the position at the time. I wanted Michael Floyd but I've wanted a WR for some time now. I was also concerned about Luke's athleticism and pass coverage ability, I bought into all the hype about his tackling numbers being inflated due to all his tackles 5-10 yards downfield. But I'am sure glad we made the pick. Never expected this pick to turn out so good. Great centrepiece for our D for a long time hopefully.

I believe him not playing with "ideal violence" will lead to a long, productive and mostly injury free career. I think we can all agree between Jon Beason and Dan Morgan, we've had enough bad luck with the injury bug biting the MLBs.

Looking back at the 2012 and 2013 drafts, you could argue that we picked Top 3 and Top 5 talent in both years with the 9th and 14th picks. Throw in 2011 which was obviously Cam with the 1st pick, and now in 2014 we got KB with the 28th pick who is looking like a Top 10 talent.

Point being, we have crushed the first round since 2011.
