I could argue that he was the second best defender on the LSU defense ahead of Delpit, Fulton, and Chaisson (behind only Stingley). His biggest issue right now is just getting more playing time since he was really only the starter for part of the season.
But if you have to have a player comparison Zeirlin has him compared to very good long time Panther linebacker (Chargers in 2019) Thomas Davis.
I'm not hung up on player comps at all. However, if someone is going to constantly rely on player comps to defend a prospect,, then it's only fair to point out that the cited players aren't really that good.
Queen has good traits, but he's a project player through and through. Much like Devin White, he's a better athlete than football player and we all saw how that turned out. There is nothing about this kid that says plug and play LB, and if you're taking a LB at 33, they need to be a plug and play player.
