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.

    • Keep my wife’s name out your mouth!
    • Yeah I'm not into college as much, so I admit not to having my own opinion about him coming out. But strictly watching ESPN shows, and going off of commentary at the time..It was a lot more 50/50 even on this board than what people like to remember and admit.  Yes many people had doubts and questions, but MANY people also thought he could possibly be the one. I was only versed enough to know that it was between he and CJ, but most pundits made it sound like either way we had a QB of the future, just different skillsets/traits.
    • Jonathan Mingo to the Cowboys Cowboys receive: WR Jonathan Mingo, 2025 seventh-round pick Panthers receive: 2025 fourth-round pick  Dallas Cowboys: C Leave it to Jerry Jones to wait until after Dak Prescott is injured to go after another receiver. To be fair, the Dallas Cowboys have a real need for the position. CeeDee Lamb is a superstar, but Jalen Tolbert and Brandin Cooks haven't been the needle movers that the Cowboys were hoping for. Making a trade for a receiver wasn't a bad move, but the player that the Cowboys gave up three rounds of value to acquire is questionable. Jonathan Mingo checked a lot of physical and athletic boxes as the 40th-overall pick in 2023. Unfortunately, the 6-foot-2, 220-pound wideout has struggled to be a productive receiver at the NFL level. Some of that has to do with playing for the Carolina Panthers, but Mingo has seriously lacked efficiency at the position. Mingo has yet to record his first NFL touchdown, catching 55 passes for 539 yards. Per TruMedia, he has just 0.74 yards per route run in his career, which ranks 177th out of 186 receivers with at least 50 targets since the start of the 2023 season.Even though Mingo fills a need, that's a lot of value to give up for a receiver that's struggled so much at the NFL level. The good news is that he still has a couple more years on his rookie deal, so at least the Cowboys are getting a cheap developmental project to learn from a star like Lamb. Carolina Panthers: A Instead of trying to hold onto Mingo, the Panthers took what they could get, and that turned out to be way more than expected. Mingo quickly became expendable thanks to the rapid ascension of rookie receiver Xavier Legette. Along with a larger-than-life personality, Legette has hauled in 26 catches for 244 yards and four touchdowns. Three of those touchdowns have come in the last four games, with Legette becoming more and more of a focal point in Carolina's offense. For a team that needs to capitalize as much as possible on draft assets, moving up three rounds in the draft to move on from a disappointing draft pick feels like an absolute win. https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-trade-deadline-2024-grading-every-move/
