Round 6 (A) Deonte Brown - G - Alabama


Recommended Posts

Carolina%20Panthers_0.png
Panthers selected G Deonte Brown with the No. 187 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Brown (6'3/344) was a 24-game starter in Tuscaloosa that left college with two national championship rings. He’s a force in the run game, combining Herculean raw power and light feet in one enormous package. Brown gave Auburn DT Derrick Brown, a top-10 NFL Draft pick, fits in 2019. But length and movement limitations -- Brown turned in a rough 1.49 RAS score at his pro day workout -- leave him exposed in pass protection against longer, springier interior players. Brown makes for a fearsome road-clearing run-blocker in a gap/power scheme if Carolina can handle the pass pro limitations. The Panthers offensive line was PFF's 19th rated run blocking unit in 2020.

Interesting. He looked abysmal at the Senior Bowl. Large, superbly powerful, but completely and utterly unathletic. Obviously we saw something to work with though.

My understanding is that he understands that he performed poorly and was out of shape at the senior bowl and has made strides to correct that.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
