@@alusinekoroma7090lmao 😂 he said he looks up to Maxx, Maxx is way ahead of him , played the whole year on a bum knee and still up for defensive player of the year
One of my favorite Edge rushers in this draft. He has proven that he is not just rusher but can catch in coverage as well. Whoever drafts him is going to have a great pass rusher for a long time.
Arguably the best edge-rusher in the draft. Great athlete with a tremendous motor to go along with that 6'5 265 lb frame. But what really separates Latu is his advanced technique and use of his hands. Very rarely do you see such a polished pass-rusher with advanced hand-movements at such a young age. He's really incredible. Should definitely be a top-10 pick in the draft imo. Will be an impact starter from Day 1.
I like that most of his productivity is created from his hand work and speed to the edge. He shouldn't have to adjust too much to NFL offensive lineman since he didn't just through them in college.
The hands on him are crazy the fundamental rips under the linemen , jamming straight arm into the shoulder to get the linemen off balance! Hee will a 20 sack player
I knew he was good but had not seen this highlight package 🤯🤯 This is Jason Taylor 2.0 with the use if his long arms and closing speed. He's a future All-pro. My Bears will be taking him and MHjr 🏆
Motor, speed, and tremendous hand technique. You'd like to see him show some power every now and then considering the jump to the NFL level--but he's definitely impressive
Excellent play awareness. Looks like he tends to play high and arsenal is pretty much swim. Hands are so clean that it doesn't seem to matter- he makes it look absolutely effortless.
I feel like this the energy we need to match Crosby on the other end, I Feel like he’d come in and make immediate noise. He just got that motor dat Crosby could coach up and mentor
Good question .he’s still developing I like the dude but his progress seems kinda slow. I feel like he didn’t make as much plays as we thought he cud of. Excited to see how he turns out next season but adding some one like Latu to the depth may light a fire under Wilson’s ass to possibly step his game up cuz it’s next man up in this league
@@Martin-iw6ke true & jalen Philips was cooking in the league before this recent injury, I believe latu might have the same trajectory hopefully no major injuries.
I’ve seen Jalen Phillips drop in the draft and I’m hoping this guy drops enough to go to the Colts. Really hoping Colts can get him and Jaylon Johnson from the Bears.
I can see latu falling like Jalen did (when I watched his taping coming out I thought he was easily edge 1). Latu is the same for me. Easily edge 1 that will slip due to medical issues. Those two would super charge our defense. Than maybe grabbing someone like Malachi Corley in the second to add offensive explosiveness
Unpopular Opinion: Latu is not only the best defensive player, but he is also the best overall player in this draft even above prospects like Caleb Williams and Marvin Harrison Jr.
@@jadalizmercedes7579 normally I would be too, but he’s been completely healthy outside of that and it clearly hasn’t effected his play or motor. 23.5 sacks in two years is serious. That’s more sacks than games played. He’s a rare breed of athlete for his size and I believe he’s the rusher we’ve been waiting for since Abraham.
Bro this guy is a MASSIVE pick for indy. He sacked Caleb Williams the number 1 overall draft pick not once not twice but 3 times in this 5 minute video 😮
Hell yea!!! Welcome to Indianapolis Laiatu!!! I cannot wait to see you in a Colts jersey man. Im excited for you to join and be apart of my beloved hometown Colts to follow in the footsteps of some of our greats likes Dwight Freeney and big Rob Mathis who will be coaching you! Our defense is now filling up with some DAWGS and defense wins championships, screw the haters!! Horseshoe Nation rise up!!! Lets go baby!!
hands placement by Latu is fantastic and the way that he works through traffic along with his relentless motor to pursue the ball carrier is very good and he has multiple ways to get to the QB!!!
Commanders and bears have built a good trade relationship. Don't be surprised if Commanders trade john allen and a 3rd to move up to 1 and swap our 3rd with your 2nd first round pick.
Why is he not mentioned in the top 5? He’s an immediate plug n play game wrecker Would really like to watch an All-22 on him One of the more impressive edge rushers I’ve seen
He has a neck injury history. His previous college actually “medically retired” him due to a neck injury. Without that, he’s a top 10 pick for sure. It sucks but it could become the reason he falls to a talented team and pushes them over the top because his production is undeniable.
