Keuchly coming back? He has resigned from his Pro Scout position at Panthers.

Beane and McD should be drawn to Keuchly like moths to a flame.

[Weatherman]

I’d give them a #2 plus and not think twice about it.  This would 100% improve our chances of unseating the Chiefs.

More likely realized he has too much in the bank and makes too little as a scout to be worth his while.

 

Or maybe he feels threatened by Dan Morgan?

Or maybe he thought he would be interested in scouting, but after doing it for a season he realized it wasn't his cup of tea and he wants to do something else.

 

Seems like world championship "leaping to conclusions" to go from "Keuchley resigned as a scout" to "Keuchley might return to playing football"

By replacing I mean as former intelligent Carolina player in pipeline.

Same difference.

I mean it was probably a bad year to make that assessment.

Some things were different I'm sure, like in-person assessment of games, but the film watching and overall evaluation process probably the same.

I can see where a guy who was a student of the game as a player might feel like watching other guys film and evaluating them would be interesting, but then do it for a while and decide it's just frustrating if part of him still wants to play, and he needs to just change course.

Wouldn't that be likely Brian Gaine?

[Buffalo_Stampede]

If he came back the Redskins probably make sense. The Bills have no spot for him.

Maybe he replaces Brian Gaine who is replacing Dan Morgan.

 

I meant as NC former player in Bills front office.

I think they created a consultant role or something for Gaine. I need to look at the FO chart. They could do the same for Luke.  In fact, he could stay based in Charlotte. I don’t think Gaine moved back to Buffalo.

 

edit: Gaine is “sr personnel advisor”

Last time I checked Logic, 619 was not a board certified Neurologist.  That was a silly comment.  There are more leaps on this thread than the Hulk did in all those marvel movies.

 

he was an excellent player, but this is another, they cut this guy, let’s sign him thread.

Aside from his lack of medical expertise. Like....saying a guy's brains are scrambled eggs? Calling his concussion-induced tears "balling like a baby"?

Just gross.

Actually, no, it's not.

 

Superstar players sometimes retire and then come back........see Gronk or Witten just in the past couple seasons.

 

But it is why I didn't bring it up when I saw it yesterday.

Oh wow, Luke literally just turned 30. 

 

If he's healthy enough to play, he probably still has a few years left in the tank.  His speed is going to start to drop off significantly though if it hasn't already, and that speed is a big part of what made him such a great fit for McD's system.  

 

I'm just not sure that the Bills are interested after picking up Tremaine's 5th year option and the Milano extension.  The only way I can see this working is if Tremaine moves outside and they utilize a lot more 3-backer play calls.

you mean after he got a really bad concussion and realized his season and career might be over?  You ever had a concussion and how bad they can be?

Seems like a pretty big gamble by the Panthers

You are right as usual. It is not very likely - but stranger things have happened. For heaven's sake, dont be a killjoy. Let us dream a bit.😀

With all the turnover there,  a new owner and HC that he never played for.......his guys aren't really there anymore.

 

Coincidentally,  Dan Morgan was a concussion magnet at The U and with the Panthers.

I grant you that superstar players do retire, then return to play. 

 

But it's still a gigantic leap between "I resigned from my scouting job" and "I want to return and play"

Keuchly should be doing play by play. More money in it, good looking guy, very intelligent. He could be the defensive Romo. 

[Clyde Smith]

He's still young. I'm hearing Warner bros might be canning Cavill, the big S is calling you Luke.

Yeah, 3 over like a 2 year period scared the hell out of him and rightly so into retirement. Really sucks as he was a beast on the field when healthy.

 

Scary stuff

Quote

Of the two in the Bills’ current brass, Beane discussed Kuechly with MMQB and raved about his legendary work ethic.

“(Kuechly is) the rare guy who had it all,” Beane said. “He’s super smart, his instincts are a 12 on a scale of 1–10 and his work ethic’s at the same level. And it’s very rare that someone with the instincts, smarts and athleticism he had still has drive like he did. On Thursday nights during the week, I’d walk down there and he’s got every linebacker still there with them, teaching them how to watch film, what to look for.”
