He's not good yet. He's got power for days but hasn't made a big impact yet probably due to not being the best athlete. I could see him being a late bloomer like Donte Jackson who doesn't actually get good til contract year. 

Good is relative.  I know he had been balling up until today, but Donte was the worst DB on the field today.

he really needs someone next to him like KK did, as good as this defense has been it’s missing someone that can collapse the pocket, demand double teams, and shut down any run up the middle and it shows…i feel he’d be much more effective in a tandem

Great player don't need the other players to make them good, they are the player that makes the other ones better.

Nobody ever talks about Aaron Donald needing someone.

Also where was KK drafted and where was Brown drafted?

i don’t have Darnold like expectations for Brown, and the investment has already been spent

the point was to reap the most you can out of him, it’d be best to have another DT playmaker

Donte is one dimensional and we have a type that he doesn't fit, I expect him to be in Washington next year

Yeah, I never wanted to keep him after the additions we made this offseason and with Gilly and Henderson. CBs tend to cost a lot of money, regardless of their slot on a depth chart, and he's just not a priority to keep at this point.

As far as DB, I think its safe to say, he is already a bust.  He has regressed from what we saw last season, and guys in his mold, who are impacrful players, make an impact just off their size alone...  he got pancaked and escorted to the ground today more than anything else...  offenses aren't only unafraid to run up the middle on him, but they actually prefer to.  I didnt want him when we drafted him, and at this point, he looks like a bad pick.  I hope I'm wrong, but he just doesn't affect the game at all.

I mean he is a Hurney pick and the South Carolina DT was right there in state but I'll give him some time though


To be fair…

Kinlaw has been worse than Brown.

From our pick (Brown), all they way down to the end of the first round, only Wirfs, Becton, Terrell, Jefferson, and Lamb are really above average NFL players.

The 2020 NFL draft is on pace to have more first round incarcerations (Ruggs and potentially Arnette and Wilson) than pro bowlers (Young and Jefferson).

      It is Quiet...Too Quiet: Thanks Dilworth Neighborhood Grille?

      We all remember 2023, when the Teppers were making the Pro Day rounds.  Then last year, the owner of this restaurant, blocks from Bank of America stadium, sent a message that was received by the Panthers' owner. 😡😠🤬 https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/panthers-owner-david-tepper-makes-news-once-again-on-day-1-of-nfl-draft Why would an owner of a restaurant put up a sign of this nature?  Flashback to the Tepper Pro Day tour.  Brace yourselves: THE PRO DAY CIRCUIT,  2023  "THE HORROR." That is Nicole Tepper, all up in the prospect evaluation process with some motherly love and awkward post-hug expressions.  I was like, "What is she doing there?" Here is the lovely owner of the Panthers on the front row among scouts and our head coach at Ohio State's pro day in 2023. MODERN DAY:  APRIL 2025 So, have David and Nicole realized that ownership in the NFL does not make you an evaluator of talent?   Will their egos allow them to let others do their jobs?  Or should we brace ourselves to see their thrones moved to the war room on April 24, preparing for their draft day interventions?  Have they been on the pro day circuit?  Have we tarnished his desktop brass balls?  Did the bartender hurt his feelings?  Did he get the message?  Just because we don't see them, it does not mean they are not there--lurking in the shadows--hugging people and talking to coaches.  Texting stuff. "Dan, take who you want, but that Offensive Guard from Guilford is my third cousin twice removed."   We need to be diligent.  Stay focused.  Keep them away from the brain trust.  Seriously, did they get the message?  What have you heard?  Are we safe? Recently, GM Dan Morgan was asked if the Teppers were involved in the private workouts at BOA.  Morgan refused to answer, but he did stare at the reporter for 43 seconds.  This photo shows Morgan being asked about the Teppers' involvement during a recent presser: According to inside sources, a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, made famous by Morgan during his playing days, was recently seen being delivered to Morgan's office shortly after meeting with the Teppers, a meeting that included a power point featuring the Teppers' top 50 prospect list.  Please post any Tepper-related news here.  Hoping there is not any.

      TJ Watt is stirring up social media with throwin up a ✌️. Sounds like he either wants out or knows he is out.  So. question is, if the Steelers come calling and offer 21 and TJ Watt for 8, are you biting?
