Derrick Brown, massive top-10 bust

[TheSpecialJuan]

According to PFF :

DI DERRICK BROWN, CAROLINA PANTHERS

Week 2 overall grade: 33.0

Water is wet, the sky is blue and Derrick Brown will at least be a dominant run defender in the NFL — even if his pass-rush ceiling is an open question. These were the things we were sure of heading into the season, but through two games, Brown has confounded expectations and been a liability on an admittedly weak Panthers defense

This week, Brown graded a little better against the run — and by that I mean there were fewer negative grades overall — but any net gain was undone by a pair of poor penalties, one for a late hit and another for illegal use of hands

Brown’s lone threat of pass-rush pressure came on the play where he used illegal hands to the face to generate the leverage to create pressure, and he was otherwise blanked as a pass rusher despite 29 such snaps. Brown has had an ugly start to his NFL career, and his Week 2 performance was one of our rookie duds of the week

Two games in and you're already deeming a player a massive bust? LOL!

I mean, can we really call a guy a bust when he's only played two freaking games in the NFL?!?

He can definitely get some guys on skates. Just hasn't really put it together yet. The boneheaded penalties are really frustrating.

I haven't been on any of the game threads. Surely someone called him a bust in the first quarter of game one, right?

brand new defense, brand new scheme, marginal DEs, bad LBers behind him, rotation at NT, low sample size, rookie, no preseason 

derp

PFF were not fans of Derrick Brown during the draft process, they're just patting themselves on the back after a poor 2 first career games.

I think we all certainly hoped to see more from him considering where he was picked, even this early in the season, however it’s pretty silly to try to make any conclusions about him at this point.

This thread is a BUST.

I'd really like to draft someone in the first round that actually can play NFL football without a 2-3 year development cycle. First round picks are not supposed to need THIS MUCH development.

I can understand teaching them more at the position, but he should be able to at least shed blocks and tackle a RB.

Brown has been good. PFF is trash. Even his penalties I can live with. That second one his hand slipped off the upper part of the chest and barely grazed the dudes face mask.
