Not a player picked at 9 who became a bust but was considered a decent pick back then but a pick that at the moment you went "wtf? Regardless whether that played turned out good or not, I'm talking about reaches in the moment it happened?

It's the type of tackle that severely injured Jordan Travis this last season and a link to the NFL news about it that also discusses the tackling technique in more detail:
A Subreddit for all talk about the Los Angeles Chargers, part of the NFL in the AFC West division
A community for fans of the 2-time Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams. Whose house? RAMS HOUSE!
Anyone else notice that whenever there are discussion posts in where all team fans chime in, we’re consistently VERY far down in the list of comments, if we’re even there at all.
I feel like we have one of the largest subreddit followings so it’s always baffled me and kinda bums me out when I don’t see answers from the Rams fans there.
Not meant to be an aggressive post, just wondering if I’m alone in this feeling.
I used to listen to almost every episode of around the NFL. Recently their takes on the Titans have been so ridiculous that I can’t even listen just for entertainment sakes. I skipped to the Titans segment of their recent Around the AFC episode and Dan suggested that their best move is to take a qb? All of the coaching and personnel changes have been a downgrade? From what? 6-11 with a grumpy HC and a playbook from 1980? I don’t get it.
Anyone have any suggestions for NFL podcasts that I can listen to until ATN stops degrading my team next season?

The messaging hasn't been great on this, but many consider a hip drop any tackle in which the tackler drops their weight to make a tackle. This is NOT explicitly banned by the new rule. From :
ARTICLE 18. HIP-DROP TACKLE. It is a foul if a player uses the following technique to bring a runner to the ground:
(a) grabs the runner with both hands or wraps the runner with both arms; and
(b) unweights himself by swiveling and dropping his hips and/or lower body, landing on and trapping the runner's leg(s) at or below the knee.
Emphases are added to clarify that elements a and both parts of element b are required for the tackled to be banned. A lot of the reaction seems to be missing this point.
ETA: Quote from NFL Competition Committee chairman Rich McKay:
... this isn't the elimination of hip-drop, this is an elimination of a swivel technique that doesn't get used very often. When it is used, it is incredibly injurious to the runner...

The recruitment in European sports is different to American sports in that they don't have a draft system. Teams just sign the best players they can. Most European professional teams, in most sports, have some kind of youth system. This system is designed to give teenagers a chance to become elite players as they age.
Do NFL teams do anything like this? Obviously the draft system doesn't encourage teams to produce high quality players because other teams will just draft them. Is youth football completely independent from NFL teams?
Edit: The answer is no. There have been many good answers. Something I had not considered before is the NFL is absolutely dominant in terms of financing and quality. All the best players go to play in the NFL, that just doesn't happen in European sports because there are multiple top leagues with similar quality and financing.

The NFL today is almost like a different game compared to the way it was played back in the day. The players were often bloody and muddy, the quarterbacks weren’t treated like fragile primadonnas, and the logos and lore were legendary. If you are nostalgic for the Gridiron greatness of the past, this sub is for you.
