Everette Brown, Florida State

everettebrown_Wisconsin_v_Florida_State.jpg

Height: 6-2. Weight: 256.

Projected 40 Time: 4.60.

Combine 40 Time: 4.73.

Pro Day 40 Time: DNP.

Benchx225: 26. Vertical: 31.5.

Projected Round (2009): Top 25 Pick.

1/9/09: The top 3-4 end in this class, Everette Brown notched 21.5 TFL, 13.5 sacks and four forced fumbles in 2008.

1/8/09: Pretty much a no-brainer for Everette Brown to declare early. He just had a big year and he already graduated.

11/16/08: Everette Brown's production has been amazing this season. In nine games, he has 15 TFL and nine sacks, which could prompt him to declare early.

O.K. listen for those freaking out (I DID AT FIRST TOO! I was like now I'll be waiting all over again NEXT YEAR!!!). I did some research and Mel Kiper projected him to go as early as #11 or #30...the Observer had him ranked #21 out of their top 100.

I thought we traded our second also but we still have that too!...so in essence we traded

A 1st rounder next year (which will hopefully be late)

for a potential #11 pick

and a fourth rounder this year...

plus we still have our second

Not to mention the kid's from North Carolina!!! Went to high school in Wilson...I really really like the pick (now well see about trading the #1)

I really think Meeks will do a fabulous job w/ developing Brown....Lots of "experts" say he's another Dwight Freeney, who was a Ron Meeks project...

Very Exciting...HE is the ONE person I wanted, and I just can't believe we landed him....

Based on value, the trade was even. A high 2nd and 4th for a generic 1st next year could be seen as the Panthers getting the better end of that deal.

As for the player selected, I wasn't a fan of Brown because I'm not a fan of the smaller DE BUT Meeks likes the smaller DE's. Johnson and Brown could become the next Freeny and Mathis. Considering his talent level, this pick was a steal at 43rd pick.

Horrible move by the Panthers front office. This guy is undersized and and he is not Dwight Freeney so everyone just shut their mouths. Unless he starts next season, he is not worth a first round pick.

Funny you say that.

1) When will you start working as a scout?

and

2) Did you notice most every draft group compares him to freeny?

I think this is a great move. He was projected 1st round and when he slid that far we were able to get him. If all goes well we gave the 32nd pick for a 2nd and fourth.

Doesnt need to start immediatley(unless something happens with peppers) can bulk up a little a be a force.

    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game.  and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important. 
    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?
