Luke Kuechly Acc Network Feature

[heyyall]

He's gonna have to add some major muscle, smaller than what I thought without pads.

[Dash Global]

I sure wish he was bigger and faster.

When taking a LB top 10 I imagine a freak athlete.

[jtnc]

Still not feeling too good about this pick.

[Dash Global]

If we didnt have a MLB id absolutely LOVE this pick....

Many consider Patrick Willis to be a "freak athlete" and he was also picked in the top-10. Luke posted a 4.58 40-time, had 27 reps of 225 lbs, a 38 inch standing vertical, and a 123 inch broad jump.

Willis on the other hand, ran a 4.51, did 22 reps, had a 39 inch vertical and had a broad jump of 119 inches...

Kuechly's combination of great instincts and athleticism is going to be huge for our defense.

[Zithers]

kuechly's only problem is his arms. 31 inches is short.

other than that, dude is a physical freak. fast as hell and strong. also an amazing tackler with great instincts.

[The Special One]

I adore this pick.

Willis was picked just outside the top 10.

[PantherFan52]

Still, he is considered one of the most athletic players at his position. A lot of people on this board are underestimating the poo out of Kuechly's athleticism. They will all be proved wrong soon enough.

Isn't this video a year old? It's possible he bulked up since then. I don't ever recall him looking small on the field in anything I've seen.

[PantherFan52]

listed at 242 lbs. not small by any stretch of the imagination.

[Catalyst]

Yeah, that video was made before last offseason, so it's like a year old now. He's bulked up quite a bit since then. 242 isn't small by any stretch. He's bigger than Beason.

[Dash Global]

IDK what you are talking about, He is very fast. He is a very good tackler too.

umm when did 4.58 become VERY fast?!?!

it isnt bad but it certainly isnt elite or very fast.

4.4 - is elite speed

4.50 - is nice / very fast

4.6 - is ok speed in a LB (4.58 is almost 4.6...)

[Guest Bwood]

Kuechly has beefed up a lot since this video, just watch the tape.

This is a fugin mans man. He's going to be the crazy white redneck of our defense for the next ten years.
