Are we content with what we're getting from Derrick Brown

About midway through the season and im curious how the huddle feels about our defacto number 1 pick. When the National media is latching more so onto our second round pick.  My stance hasn't changed. If your drafting to ten you want a guy who is a superior athlete who can be the quarterback, protect the quarterback or get after the quarterback(skilled position players are weighed differently).

Brown shows promise in the run game. It was his defining traits we knew he was country strong and would be good to go there. But I was solid on the promise he would develope a pass rush repertoire and would be an asset there. Naturally running a 5.0 40 made me question that, would have been enough to say the overall athletic profile isn't there to be a asset in this department. We have seen even on passing downs brown comes out and they like to sub in guys.

My question to you guys are you content with getting a space eater with a top 7 pick?

He's going to be a stud.  You've got to look at his production in context.  How often is Phil Snow only rushing three?  Why should we expect any NT, much less a rookie NT to be piling up tons of sacks and QB pressures when on passing downs, they're alone against two linemen?  To suggest he should be doing more in the pass rush on these downs is to have unrealistic expectations.  He's flashed in both the run and the pass game and he's going to anchor the middle of that defensive line for years to come.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
