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.

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.

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.

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.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
