[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1067348, member: 10086"] Amen. As a GM you have to trust in your process and follow through. We’re just touching the Tip of the iceburg with $$ If we do the math starting this year Lukas will average $10Mil per year across the next 3 seasons factoring real time impact. That’s pretty much a worst case. If you don’t think he’s worth it you got Lukas on a 2yr X $8.6Mil deal (2025-26) then he likely like goes on to net you a future Late Day 3 selection. On the production side. Nobody but some of us uninformed and impatient Fans thought he was going to come out and crush it in the NFL in Year 1 or 2. He was drafted as a college Sophomore. Meaning he’s a high upside year 3,4 player and anything before that is merely a bonus. He went from a 4-2-5 (3-High Safety) playing DT and then LB. Comes into GB playing a 3-4 OLB and then 4-3 DT/DE. Talk about getting your tail whipped around positionally. Not to mention his position is highly reliant on hand usage and he wears a cast until Week 11? That shows you the fight that kid has. 2025 is the 1st Season that he’s played the same position in consecutive years. Very few guys can pull a Bo Melton it’s just like needle in a haystack. We talk about switching positions but there’s much more to that than putting on a New Jersey number. I think Van Ness and Gary are perfect Size for this 4-3 DE job. Both also possess requisite Power to slide around a bit. Both have requisite speed to set Edges. It’s a matter of Coaching them up and strengthening any found weakness. I think we’ve got a pair of good DE’s. Now it’s just a matter of fine tuning and getting the best from both players. I’m a Van NESs fan until I’m not.
