So is Derrick Brown, for being historically bad so far

One way to discredit any post here is to say historically bad. Ive come to find anytime this is posted the person  has bo idea what they are talking about.

Jeremy Chinn continues to get noticed by general NFL talking heads. Chinn flies to the ball more fluidly than I have ever seen any current Carolina Panthers player do. Very young Thomas Davis like. 

 

I was watching him carefully in that game because he was jumping out at me how he moved. He injured Henry Ruggs and another Raiders receiver by diving and striking hard at their lower bodies, chopping them with his arms into their legs. He's fast, smooth, powerful, and has great leaping ability. Sort of like a literal Panther.

I think at this point we really just need a sticky post on the main forum explaining what a DT does so people who have no idea what they’re talking about will relax. I swear half this board thinks he’s supposed to play like chase young

You have to use Chinn like Jamal Adams.  He reads the game very well and loves to hit.

Well number 1 is don't commit stupid ass penalties. Number 2 is to help the pass rush and run game. I SEE JACK poo FOR SACKS, CAN'T STOP THE RUN, AND ANOTHER HURNEY BUST

We've used him the blitz the second most(5 times) on our team so far behind Juston Burris(6). He just needs to get a little better in coverage(allowed 6 completions on 9 targets) and clean up those missed tackles(leads team with 5). 

I definitely believe he needs to clean up the tackling, but he was also in on so many more tackles that his missed tackles where a lot higher than the % of missed tackles other players were putting up.

It's almost like he's a run stuffer, and isn't going to get a lot of sacks.

You know, like how everyone said Star was over-rated for what he did because he wasn't a great pass rusher, and then he left and we end up with some of the worst rush defenses in franchise history.

DJ was a huge Chinn aficionado leading up to the draft and for good reason. Super stoked with the pick and think he is giving anyone with buyers remorse on Isaiah Simmons relief that we got an equally as talented/productive player.

I see a lot of folks comparing him to TD, which is fine.

I do prefer the Jamal Adams....Derwin James....Kam Chancellor mold, personally. That hybrid rover position is en vogue and think that he's just fine staying this size and not bulking up anymore.

It sounds like most of his issues resides in the fundamentals and should be improvable. His physical talents are all positives and when he tackles it looks like the other players notice. This is the safety I always wanted...playing LBer.

He's exciting to watch.  Plays with such energy and speed.  Seems to know where the ball is going and gets there in a hurry.   Stands out on our defense because of that.  We need more like him.  Building block.

No lie, he is drawing double teams the majority of his snaps.  He is doing what he is supposed to but his line mates are not producing.

I think those missed tackles and coverage issues will come with adjustments to NFL caliber players. College teams only have 1 or 2 offensive players capable of making an NFL squad if they're lucky. I think its just going to take a little bit to adjust to level of competition on every play.
