[QUOTE="easyk83, post: 570505, member: 8895"] Hawk is judged too harshly, he has been a different player for the last 2 seasons. Did you know that in tackles for loss, if you exclude 34 OLBs, and DEs, that AJ Hawk was tied for 3rd in the league with Navarro Bowman? Did you also know that he was tied for 3rd in the league for sacks among ILBs with Navarro Bowman? 16 sacks and tackles for loss and you want to replace him with a guy who has never started an NFL game before.... Ooooo-k. IMHO Hawk's improved production is not so much a result of scheme or him playing more loosely. He was a star at OSU playing as a 236 pound catch and chase linebacker. After spending much of his pro career at 255 pounds, and resembling a human knockwurst with average speed, Hawk is back down to the 230s and suddenly he looks pretty fast again. Suddenly a lighter more athletic AJ Hawk has started doing things like this: [url]http://www.packers.com/media-center/videos/AJ-Hawk-makes-athletic-one-handed-interception/f4706c57-921c-4ee5-9fb6-7084c33d694c[/url] Perhaps Hawk shouldn't be regarded as much as an underachieving number 5 pick and more as a what if. What if AJ Hawk played his entire career at his ideal weight? I wager he would be evaluated in a very different fashion. [/QUOTE]
