Film Room: Derrick Brown

[ellis]

The Panthers knew what they were getting when they drafted Derrick Brown. He’s not Aaron Donald, and he never will be. That’s not his DNA. Folks need to stop expecting double digit sacks—I doubt that’s ever going to be a regular thing for him.

He can continue to refine his pass rush technique. He will improve with more reps.

I’ve compared him to Kris Jenkins for months, in terms of measurables and technique. 

He made FOUR big-impact stops against the run Sunday. The variety of ways in which he got it done here is what always stood out on tape during the draft eval process.

What a wasted pick. Huge bust amiright??

[ForJimmy]

Too late, he was already deemed a bust after two weeks with no preseason.

But Issiah Simmons can replace Luke!

[Harbingers]

#4 was a thing of beauty. He wasn't trying to kill his man like some people think a DL should do. He straight up moved into his gap and completely filled it.

[Varking]

Super happy he’s showing improvement. Really hope he can be a cornerstone for our defense for years to come!

Word from Cardinals fans is he’s looked lost and they’re struggling to find a position for him. He’s getting a look at safety on Sunday for our game because of injuries they’ve had at the position. I hope we go after him early and often.

Love the breakdown Ellis. Thank you for sharing. Always love the quality content. Brown looks like the real deal, just not a pass rusher first and after last year I am more than happy with that and what he brings on game days.
