Kam 2.0?

[Ruminator]

He doesn't play like Kam, he's just big.

A good thing, since the NFL has decided to start flagging the kind of hits Kam used to deliver.

People can call him whatever, I doubt he'll ever be as good as Kam, and I don't expect him to. Just be a damn good player like you were in college, kid. That being said, there are some comparisons, and that's a good thing.

Odd take. Please expand.

Bunch of folks brought up his physicality already, so I'll just add that Kam ran a 4.7, while Emmanwori ran a 4.38. Picture a 6'3" 220# Earl Thomas...

Most of kams hits were legal hits even in today's nfl but the ferocity and timing was crazy cuz he knew what was coming and I'm sure he could have adjusted if he'd had a longer career
Day in and day out one of the top hitters in the nfl , vernon davis said so lol which was a fair hit at the time but looked so bad they had to throw the yellow mercy flag
Davis was seeing stars and probably for days

Kam and Earl rolled into one maybe.

Big hits are nice, but let's get real. Half the the hits Kam gavewould be 15 yard penalties today..so I’ll take tackling and coverage of big hits

Love the Kam comps this dude is a freak we basically got two first rounders with our first 2 picks both were projected 1st round. The fact that Emmanwori slid to us at 35 was shocking. This defense is going to feast.

I'm not really a fan of calling a player a 2.0 version of another player. Because it really sets them up for failure in the expectations in the eyes of a fan. i.e. You hold them in comparison of that other player, which in most cases they will only meet the ability of that player in some areas, and not meet in many others. So they will never appear as good, meanwhile the things that player may do better/differently is not part of the measuring stick at all.


Also being said, when have we ever crowned a player the next coming of (insert All-Team, HOFer here) and they met or exceeding that expectation.

Depending on who you ask Arroyo and Milroe also had some 1st rd grades and or mocked in the 1st. Could potentially say 4 1st rounders
