Assuming that the new coaching staff sticks with the 3-4, how does Chubb fit in as a 3-4 OLB?

I struggle with taking a G or RB with a top 3 pick.

Most do, but if the others do not grade out, you have to take what helps the franchise the most.Nelson could be that sort of player. Barkley is very talented, but a luxury that we cannot afford.

And it was the prior GM that drafted them. They have not made a real commitment to fix the OL other than that. Second rate FAs and mid to lower round draft picks. |

I certainly do not want a RB taken with a top 3 pick.
A guard I understand is questionable with a pick that high but if they are a projected to be a definite 10 years solid starter in this league, given the OL problems, and there is no chance to trade down a bit and still get him, I am fine with it. If the pick works out no one in 5 years is going to be criticizing your for taking a guard that high. We saw this when Freeney was selected. The consensus of EVERYONE at the time was good player, but Colts took him too high. Who cares? He was the cornerstone of the D for the better part of a decade. |

Not saying that's the case for Chubb. Just saying, if the scouting staff determines he's more Charles Harris than Myles Garrett. |

I've only watched one game and some highlights of Chubb. Obviously not an expert or even that into CFB. The one game was against FSU and he was a real problem to deal with the entire game. He abused the QB. Two sacks and I don't know how many QB hits.
I've read he's a more athletic Derek Barnett, who I was very high on last year. I don't really see that so much. I agree he's the better athlete but to me Barnett was stronger, a lineman that could transition to OLB but was probably a better fit in an even front rushing with his hand down. Chubb seems like the better transition prospect. I like that he is athletic enough to not worry about, that he tries hard, that he produced consistently, and that he wants to be great. He's not a Garrett or Clown eye, those guys don't come along often. But I like him well enough that I'll trust it's a good pick if Ballard likes him. |

If ... IF.... we could trade number three for two first round picks, this year and one next year, AND a fairly early second round pick this year, I'd do it
We can't fix this train wreck in one year anyway. Normally I'd cringe at two additional rookie offensive line starting in front of a surgically repaired Luck, but the o-line is so bad it would be an improvement. IF Luck can ever comes back he won't last long with what we have. A Tarik Glenn, Adam Meadows type draft would help keep Luck alive |
