I keeping hearing those Jaylon comps, and it comes from people that just read scouting reports. The comp is incredibly lazy
It’s not a comparison just a look at their skill set.
Please feel free to pull up the game where Penn has him dropping into coverage and not just blitzing down hill or guarding check downs underneath.
If you want that then Jaylon can do those things and can do them pretty well.
The problem is that if a guy is only good at blitzing, like Jaylon, then you can’t just have them on the field when you want them to blitz or it’s a give away. So they have to be able to cover.
Where is the Micah Parson covering guys video? There isn’t one. It’s just projection which makes him a super risky player unless you are of the belief that the NFL is suddenly going to play football like they did 15-20 years ago again.
There is no use in the modern game for linebackers who can’t cover.
