Hutchinson, when with Michigan would always start reading film on the next team. He takes his job very serious, he will never be content. That will spread through the whole lockerroom. I could probably say the same thing about Campbell after listening to his interview. Those two and Branch will be the leaders of the defense for a long time.
Welcome to late May. Where no story is the story, and gets blown up to be a big deal. Hutch taking a pass on the question is fine. The question was worded to get a response that drags the other players down.
You want to know why the Lions are great now? Starts with drafting these guys… Aidan Hutchinson Penei Sewell Amon Ra St. Brown Frank Ragnow Taylor Decker Jahmyr Gibbs Sam Laporta Brian Branch Alim McNeil Jack Campbell
According to PFF Hutchinson is elite with score in the 90s. Fans are fixated on sacks. Hutchinson sack total will rise when he gets help on the other side or lockdown corners...i do think Betts & Arnold will help. 13-15 prediction sound about right, + usual elite run defender, + usual elite number of pressures. You need to be sauced liked the Watt boys to get 20 sacks and with Hutchinson dad being a Dr i dont see him doing it.
Sacks and pressures weren't the issue it was his tackling numbers solo. 30 RBs ran underneath him and around him often, sure he was getting doubled team. To me i'd like to see him add 20 to that number with similar sack and pressure production. I think in order to take a leap he needs to be able to set an edge while rushing the passer.
