Anybody that said that either didn't watch game footage for Vander Esch or they have no clue how to evaluate players.
I had him graded ahead of Tremaine Edmunds. They had similar size and athletic ability but Vander Esch appeared to have a much better understanding of the game despite less years of football experience.
He has more tackles in less snaps than the LBs drafted before him.
He appears to be ahead of Jaylon in regards to understanding the scheme and definitely way ahead of where Jaylon was last season.
He is a bigger, faster, healthier version of Sean Lee.

Kudos. Major.**** I already copyrighted the name Vander Trash lol. It's ok to be wrong sometimes, no?
add to that if he has the most 15+ yard runs, then the rest of his carries must REALLY be poor....example, (I am not looking up all of his 15+ runs, but that piece says he had 13 and his longest is 41...so, 12 carries X15 yards = 180 + the 41 - 221; so in his other 119 carries, he has 398 yards for a stellar 3.3 yds/carry....the guy can by dynamic, but when the first offensive play of EVERY game is "Zeke. go run off of the left guard and plow into the line", he has to up his average on his other 17 carries
you relay my message to oldschoolbum yet? give him a nice big **** you.Kudos. Major.
