Is Detroit looking at Chase Young? [ESPN’s Dan Graziano SUGGESTS Lions should look at Chase Young] (3 Viewers)

[saintlad]

My friend talked to me yesterday about Detroit maybe going after Chase Young to replace Hutchinson. Had anybody heard that ?

If so what could we get for him

 

[BBarnes]

5th round pick at the most and that is probably me being hopeful

I got this excerpt from one of ESPN's pay walled articles.

"I don't expect the Raiders or Browns to be eager to deal away franchise-cornerstone types such as Crosby or Myles Garrett. Ojulari is a great name to watch if the Giants tumble out of contention. Jadeveon Clowney has $2 million in guaranteed 2025 money in his deal with Carolina, but that likely wouldn't stand in the way of a deal once he's healthy. Josh Uche is in the final year of his contract in New England and cheap. Trevis Gipson was a healthy inactive for the Seahawks this week. Ogbo Okoronkwo is signed through 2025 in Cleveland but has no more guaranteed money on his deal. What about Chase Young? The Saints really like the guy and could be interested in signing him to a long-term deal, but if they check in and don't feel good about their chances of doing that, could he be on the move for the second deadline in a row?

Fowler: That's not a bad call. Young signed a one-year deal with New Orleans in hopes of parlaying it into a new contract with the team. With the Saints sitting at 2-4, perhaps the organization would listen to offers closer to the deadline. I'd be mildly surprised if anything happens. Young garnered a third-round pick in last year's trade from Washington to San Francisco, and now that he's fully healthy and playing productive snaps, I would surmise New Orleans wouldn't accept anything less in a deal, if it even considers it.

All of these moves require the Lions to unload precious draft capital, but what if they stand pat? Is there enough for the defense to stay afloat? Looking at the depth chart, four edge rushers are on injured reserve. It's hard to win that way. James Houston is intriguing, though. He exploded with eight sacks in seven games as a rookie in 2022 but hasn't done much since. Maybe he can regain his fastball with an extended look."

3rd round pick gets him a one way ticket to Detroit

Team should trade him but they’re in denial. I love Kamara but I’d also be calling Jerry if I was in charge. Dallas desperately needs a RB.

What do you think the Cowboys would give up for AK?

 

[saintfan-n-alexla]

Young hasn’t impressed me. Pressures are good but not worth a roster spot much less more than minimum salary

 

[ELLIASJWILLIAMS]

Hasn't been as impactful He's a menace as a one on one, beat my man guy in practice, but forced to play the game within the game, and make plays behind LOS etc...he looks lost. Granderson is far more of a complete player, not even close.

Still, even Granderson has regressed in a way and I think that falls on the Dline coach similar to last years oline struggles falling on Marrone

In fact, now that I'm looking at it, looks like Young has played majority of his snaps as RDE w/ Granderson playing more snaps at LDE in front of Cam. That explains why he's not making the plays in the run game he was making last year. He's out of position.

I'm no Guru, but I truly think the Saints would be wise to put Granderson back at RDE, let Chase Young walk, move Bresee to LDE in somewhat of a JJ Watt role, and then add better talent at NT than they have w/ Bink. Meanwhile Nathan Shepherd has been playing Right DT a lot and getting blown off the ball, move him to LDT as more of a 3tech in Bresees old spot, let him make some plays instead of being asked to stop the run.

IDK, the Dline coach is still the one who makes most of the suggestions about what guys, can and cannot do, I'm just incredibly unimpressed w/ Todd Grantham to this point.

He's a novelty item

Should control games

It's like going to a pawn shop with a ancient samurai sword passed down in your family for many generations.. then finding out that it was a theater prop in a movie that has little value.

 

[SigFreudianSlip]

Gimme Sam Laporta and you can have Young.
Or Frank Ragnow.

 

[SystemShock]

Graziano must be a Packers fan.

 

[SirLoinSaint64]

Let the man play for a contender. Get something in return. Win Win.

 

[Saint Droopy]

At this point I'm selling all available assets. Especially ones that we don't plan on resigning.

 

[Crawdaddys]

Hassan Reddick makes more sense for the Lions.

 

[SaintsMan209]

i thought this guy was going to beast for the Saints but so far he's turned out to be weak
