Well Number 91 Everett Brown Showinfg why we took him first. I think he needs to get lower, but for all fairness. I think awesome draft pick, even got a sack and a smile out of MR. Peppers.

On the good side he played with energy and kept trying. But what I saw was why I don't oount on rookie DEs to start right away. He has a lot to learn and was largely handled by the second string tackles. He got his sack against fourth stringers. So far he is where I thought he would be. A long way from being a starter.

English teachers are face palming everywhere.

Also, I'm not sure about how he'll do yet. He's just so small. He's got strength, and I do love the fact that for the first time Peppers has a young player to mentor. I think that might make him happy. He has potential, he adds a step to his speed when he hits the corner and we have a vicious combo.

yeah he needs a step on the corner, but that is what they talked about when he was signed. they said that he needs to work on his stutter step. So nothing we didnt already know. Got to tell himself to keep going not to think about it.

I didn't like what I saw... To have all the hype about him in camp talking about how quickly he was picking things up and how great he was performing, I didn't see much of that tonight.

He used the spin or double spin move pretty much every play, and it only worked once late in the game on a scrub OT. When he was going up against there 2nd round OT Beatty, he was thoroughly getting handled from what I saw. Repeated spin moves, tried to bull rush and nothing worked. Didn't see the quick first step, perhaps because he wasn't using it...

He can't shed blocks very well. Once the OT got his hands on him, he was done. A lot of this was because he does not use his lack of height to his advantage and use any leverage. He appears to be coming in way too high. I just expected to see more out of him because of all the kool-aid being stirred up from camp. Disappointed overall.

    • Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.          
    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
