Jeremy Chinn Rookie DPOY?

[DaveThePanther2008]

I was snooping around NFL.com checking out stats.  Jeremy Chinn is leading all rookies in tackles and is doing quite well in our system.

Clearly outshining Simmons from Arizona. 

I know it's a tad early but he leads all rookies in tackles (according to NFL.com)

I enjoy watching him play.  He's going to be a stud for us.  Many questioned the pick but damn he's been a pleasant surprise.

So far yes, he and Brown are both in the conversation.

I think we can stop comparing him to Simmons who isn't even starting.  Chinn is the better player, case closed.

Chinn has a good chance if he continues to perform and get better.  He's currently on place for 148 tackles as a rookie!

Kelvin Benjamin had 1,000 yards receiving his rookie year, I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch.

I don't understand the comparison between Simmons and Chinn in terms of our picks, Derrick Brown vs Simmons was the argument, we would've got Chinn anyway had we picked Simmons.

Chinn stepping up as a LB is huge. It keeps Tahir Whitehead off the field and it gives the Panthers defense speed and versatility. 

I'd say he might be the frontrunner for DROY right now along with Derrick Brown.

DPOY is probably a stretch lol

Absolutely.

I did see the ILB Queen for Minnesota has 33 tackles plus an INT.

ROOKIE DPOY.  I know he's not to the level of DPOY.

DPOY? No.  DROY? He should have a chance

Outside of the buffet line, KB always been his own worst enemy but he’s always had the talent to be elite. Don’t really think it’s a fair comparison.

I assumed this thread was about DROY

Kelvin Benjamin was a lazy bum who would have been successful if he had a better work ethic.  We should stop using such outliers as an argument.

Certainly possible but I think he'll need some more "flashy" stats to win it. Some other rookie will probably put up some flashy stats on D so I think it may make it tough for Chinn if the "only" stat that stands out is tackles. Of course he passes the eye test and has been insanely good in ways that don't show up on the stats sheet, but without sacks, picks, FF, FR, etc. and especially playing in our smaller market, I'm not sure he wins it.
