Did you watch any Packers games? I assume not. He had a huge impact.

Matthews had more sacks at MLB in the time he played there than any full time MLB had all season.

I would take Dontae Hightower over everyone of these LB's except Kuechly and Bowman.

Its both i believe the 90 ratings should b for the best of the best and hof players especially since they have legends in draft champions and daryl smith definitely is not top 5 mlb-i think ratings overall are inflated to much ratings should b done based on how good you are in certain areas for example u dont have to make there speed rating high just to make there overall rating high -another example odb very good player but definitely shouldnt b in the top 5 of wr's and definitely not a 94 rating mayb in a couple yrs but not now

Patrick Willis was a 90+ for a number of years until he retired, he was the classic 3-4 MLB. same as Urlacher was the prototypical Tampa 2 MLB.

He could improve in pass coverage.

That's kind of like nit picking a Ferrari though.

96 is fine as long as there's nobody rated higher than him at the position because there is certainly no one better.

I really think the only 99 period should be JJ Watt.

Panthers play 4-3 ? In which case id say Luke is the best 4-3 MLB

Lol Hightower is not better than Clay.

And no Kendricks is not better vs the run than Clay. Our run D drastically changed for the better once Clay was moved inside. We had one of the worst run defenses in the first half off the season when Clay moved inside week 8 we had a top 10 run D the rest of the year.

From a Packers fans point of view he is not, from a Patriots fan he is, the Eagles fan thinks Kendricks is better. If he could stay healthy I would Jerrod Mayo over all three of them.

Mayo is a damn fine player who is asked to do a lot in the Patriots scheme and does it well... but while not ignoring the point of your post by saying hometown players get a boost in the eyes of the fans....so far, even when healthy, I don't believe he cracks a top 5 conversation yet.

Three years ago before all the injuries set in Mayo was considered a Top 5 player by many. In fact in Madden 5 he was the 5th best LB with a 94 OVR.
