Chase just had a Zoom pressie today and really sounded GREAT in front of the media! Very, very mature. While at Ohio State he had them give him all the film of all sacks in the NFL that week, ESPECIALLY the Bosa Brothers, Van Miller and Mack. He said he especially studied the Bosa Brothers each week. When asked what player he wanted to be like, he said Julius Pepper. Guess who coached and got the most out of Pepper in his HOF career? Jack Del Rio!

He also said that he would keep his circle of family and friends - tight and small. He said especially since he was returning to his home town that this would attract a lot of people who only wanted to talk to him since he was rich. He also said that every win the Redskins had he’d come home for a BBQ with his family. I highly doubt you’re going to see this young man be tempted by the fast life that others have fallen into and torched their careers.

Chase said that he needed to work on a lot in his techniques and saw lots of room for improvement for himself. He said he just ignores all the people who want to give him the “gold jacket” right away. He just wants to work on getting better.

He’s already visited Allen because he’s one of the “leaders on the team”. He also said that he wanted to see Sweat.

Finally, he said he might grow another inch or two (currently 6’ 5”). He said his Dad added a lot of height late.

All-in-all, a very, very impressive press conference. He wasn’t just mouthing the right words that were handed to him by his press agent. He really has his head on straight and is a smart guy who mentally will be a premium football player. I predict Chase Young will be a media favorite because he is well-spoken, honest, intelligent and humble. What a great addition to our defense!

The fact that he could still grow blows my mind.

And knowing it's not BS talk, but based on genetics (his Dad going from 6'7" as a soph in college, to 6'10" after college - wow), and doctors looking at his growth plates seeing room to grow ... dayum.

A 6'8" predator prowling our D Line??

Yes please.

He's Julius Peppers and we have needed that for years

I thought you were on the trade the pick bandwagon and wanted Simmons?

O I was but I always said if we take CY I'd be just as happy.

One guy isn't going to turn this into a top d. Do you guys remember just how bad it was last year? I believe that we were last against the run. No one is capable of stopping SaQuan. Last on 3rd down. I think Chase will help 3rd down hopefully. But year after year we just suck against the run. Sorry but you can not just say that is all Manusky's fault. A lot of it has to go on the players too.

Kerrigan can not play the run worth shit anymore. Holcomb misses more tackles than anyone. I saw Allen get pushed around too much. Collins is the most overrated safety in the NFL.

A lot of the same guys will be back and we will need them to play better and get coached up.

This is true, the only true run stopper we had was Payne. Allen was 50/50 but maybe Chase can cover up some of their flaws. Our LBs were trash last yr

As for Kerrigan, I could see this being his last yr in DC

Just pure garbage. Just don't think they'll be able to cover up all the holes in year one. Thomas Davis is just too old. Hoping for Foster to possibly step in there and become a force.

Gregg Manusky was coaching those guys and his history is mediocre at best. Jack Del Rio is a superior coordinator and is implementing a different, more aggressive philosophy.

In Steve Spurious' last year the defense wasn't anything to write home about but when Gregg Williams took over the same unit they immediately became a force to be reckoned with. I have a funny feeling the D wilk become a strong point for Wash, if the season happens.

Maybe Chase Young will bump us up to drafting 1 first team all-pro. We'd still be in last place for the last 20 years but you gotta start somewhere right?

Not a fan of gold jerseys

The only time I dig the gold jerseys is as practice jerseys..
