Sephiroth Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Does Kayvon Thibodeau count as drafting a LB in the first round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 He definitely needs to put on more weight, gain more strength and develop a second pass rush move beyond the bull rush that worked in college. He is playing against beefy pros Like the Egals who know how to hold onto defensive Linemen and not half of his games against overmatched college fodder. He is a good player and needs to take a page from the Strahan book to get ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jranieli Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 For a rookie, I say he had a good year. Missing the beginning of season and training camp hurt. This is Strahan's stats. Took him a few years to really get going. Thibodeaux's season is pretty close to Strahan's second. His year wasn't far off from Aidan Hutchinson, except for the sacks and int's. Maybe second best rookie.

Strahan Thibodeaux Aidan Hutchinson I agree with you For DE's the second and third years are the true measure Just don't go to the Peanut Butter Sandwich Thibs, just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted February 1, 2023 Author Share Posted February 1, 2023 Yeah but is he a LB? Or are we going to hear "The Giants haven't drafted a linebacker in the first since Carl Banks in blah-blah-blah!" For a month this offseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coughlin trying to move Kiwi to LB was a mistake I reckon.' Thibs is very Light for the Line He needs more beef on him. He is more Like a standup LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
