I'm going to assume we've all been viewing the team through the same lens these past few years. Soooo the thing that has INFURIATED me the most, undoubtedly, is the inability to collapse a pocket without a blitz.  We just couldn't. You would watch our defense and they were push backed by OLs repeatedly.  Love, Addison, Short, Obada, retreads, whoever the heck it was, we just weren't getting it done. Like, at all.   

We just made a GINORMOUS step by selecting a guy who can legitimately play every single spot on a line, in even and odd fronts.  Just watch this guys work.  he brings it every snap, he mauls. 

At 6'5 325, Brown brings a size that many DTs are "boom/bust" types but he's the most well rounded, agile and large specimen combo I've seen on the DL I've seen in years.   

It was known how much he led the Auburn defense, on and off the field.  Coaches loved him, players loved him, players listened to him. 

So with Burns going into year 2, Kerr and Weatherly coming in as rotation, we've now added Derrick Brown.

High floor, high ceiling. 

This monster is in the mix:

Feel good folks.  Simmons is just some OLB.

Ignorant needless statement. You lost credit at that point

I agree. Its not the sexy pick, but I'd love to have this guy on my side of the ball. Watching him play in a division where the winner could come and beat the bottom 5 teams in the NFL, he flat out dominated. This dude is All American, soon to be All-Pro. The fact that makes it cemented is the guys motor is matched by his mental. He leads, he learns and he eats. 

 

Make no mistake, Luke left a VOID. And this is just the first step to filling that hole.

I'm just trying to put in context our biggest arguable issue these past 3 years.  We couldn't put consistent dents in lines and quickly to rattle these younger mobile QBs.  This is just a super solid pick.  All good things dudes and dudettes.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.

      We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
