from PFF (people that actually get paid to evaluate players):  

"Queen qualifies as one of the biggest breakout players in college football after playing only 255 snaps in his career prior to 2019. He was a player who certainly made a name for himself with his play down the stretch as he racked up nine stops in the College Football Playoffs. Queen is very slightly built at his listed 6-1, 227 pounds and more closely resembles a defensive back than a linebacker at this point. Such is the way the NFL game is going though. Unlike some of the other undersized backers on this list, Queen isn’t quite as long or as explosive at this point to explain it away.

While he may not be a complete linebacker, Queen excels in the right area: coverage. He is about as smooth as it gets at the position and only allowed 24-34 targets for 186 yards and 12 first downs last season. Those are as good a collection of stats as you’ll see in coverage at the linebacker position in this draft."


And that is exactly what I want for the Bengals.  A speedy OLB that can cover.  


Don't bother to reply unless you like to continue to piss in the wind.  

I seriously doubt I'm getting banned for disagreeing about a prospect in the draft forum.  

If I wouldn't have to call you out on complete made up BS, then watch you try and pull some fuzzy math to justify it, you wouldn't have to dance in a bunch of directions.  Seriously, you're trying to make it out like it was some Herculean effort solely by Queen to hold a QB who averages 24.7 rushing yards a game at 4.5 ypc to 49 rushing yards at 4.9 ypc.  

So basically, you had no idea who Queen even was when you took Phillips and you jumped him up over Phillips based solely on the CFP.  You think a guy is one of the top LB's in the whole draft that you didn't even think was the best LB on his team a few months ago on the basis of 2 games.

He may statistically be one of the top cover LB's in this class.  It's a bad LB class, though, and those aren't exactly amazing numbers.  Queen is allowing completions on over 70% o his targets and an opposing passer rating of 81.25.  The high completion % is of concern because NFL talent is going to do a lot more damage than college guys.  Also, last year Bynes only allowed a 47.4 passer rating when targeted last year, so I don't see subbing him out for a guy who allowed 81.25 in college as being a big upgrade.  

Oh, so you're butthurt because you've got a hard on for Queen and feel the need to jump to his defense, but you can't debate worth a damn?  I'm sure you can find a nice echo chamber on an LSU board.
