Draft can’t predict injuries this is just a season to see if he can come back from the ACL injury. If he comes back strong, then they sign him. pretty standard approach. It is amazing how folks on this board do so little research b4 they post. OP appears to have no knowledge of the injury?

Washington's only play is to hope he regains his rookie form before the injury and then sign him to a new contract if he does.

I mean I’m sure people will do the Jerry Hughes thing where they make his low sack numbers more impressive than they are. But his best season was 7.5 sacks. that said if they could float a 5th or lower and his knees somewhat check out, I would be on board. I think the knock is that he doesn’t have that extra gear that elite guys have and the injuries haven’t helped. And Washington is a hellhole to play for.

wppete Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Offer a 4th round pick for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balln Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 This reeks of devasting knee injury - never going to regain form- move. if it was anything BUT the above - you would pick up his 5th yr option for a franchise / pass rusher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) This is to hedge against his injuries. They can still tag him and/or sign him to a long term deal if he regains his form. They did that with Payne this year. 5th year option is $17M Transition is estimated at $16.7M and franchise at $20.9M in 2024. The new calculations for 5th year options are making teams think twice before picking them up. Edit: Changed tag #s. Had 2023, not 2024 amounts.

I live in the DC area and Chase Young is a monster if healthy. I'm just outside of DC. Personally, I think he'll be fine. If Young returns to form, Washington will have the best defensive line in football. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Washington is a hellhole to play for. 4 forced fumbles, 4 passes defensed, AP defensive rookie of the year, a bunch of tackles for loss … come on. He was legit excellent in his rookie season, as his 14 AV attests. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/Y/YounCh04.htm 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homey D. Clown Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Considering how young he is, there really is no telling what he can do the farther removed he is from that injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never NEVER Give-up Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 This just means the 2023 will be his contract year - instead of 2024. He's great, but has just missed too much time. His ability has NOT been availability! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in the DC area and Chase Young is a monster if healthy. I did not dig down into his injury history I admit that It doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re going to get to sign him. He comes back from the injury healthy. If he has a strong season, he might get offered elsewhere They’re taking a bit of a gamble, but I can understand why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
