What do we think of Brian Baldinger's nickname for Derrick Brown, El Toro The Bull?

Just really noticed it. I don't think its bad. Will it stick?

Sidenote: I love baldies  breakdowns... look forward to them every week they get me hype for the future of this young defense. He is also very high on Obada.

Baldinger seems one of the few talking heads on tv who truly loves the game, does great analysis that is on target and not mostly BS.  To me, this earns him the right to hand out some nicknames. I hope this one sticks because on top of his great analysis, I think it's a pretty good nickname.

You starting to warm up to Brown yet?

I mean my opinion is the same. He will always be a good player because of his strength. Great at the point of attack. I don't think he will every impact the passing game at an elite level because that's not his game. He is a more one dimensional guy which if your not routinely getting to the passer thats expensive for a top 7 pick.

Hard to hate a guy that is dominate in one aspect of what he does so it a push for me. He's like Shaq Thompson to a degree. He isn't a bad player at all but is he the big nickel defender that was suppose to shut down tight ends? Did we over pay for shaq? Yes. Hes a starter tho.

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.

      I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
