Y'all think we wanted to get better in goal line and "inches to go".

Dude can straight push most any DT backward...may not be athletic, but he's powerful.

Yep. If nothing else he can be a backup and be used in goalline situations. Hes the only guy in the SEC that could roll with Derrick Brown in 2019. Big D murdered most everybody else, Big De held his own though.

He needs to be at 340 tops--preferably at 330.

At his current weight he'll just get gassed and be way less effective. The exciting thing is that he could be way better stamina and strength wise if he trims down and loses some of the excess fat. I don't think anyone has seen him at his best. I suspect the "team rules" he violated was eating way too much and getting too fat. j/k

Oh wait this is the guy who I was ranting about last year who did well against Derrick Brown! Here is a video made by some British guy that I posted last draft. Might as well post it again. Watch 65! That's our guy versus... our new guy!

Dropped because he was too fat during SR bowl---if ever a year for that---he has lost 20 lbs since. https://www.si.com/college/alabama/bamacentral/alabama-ol-deonte-brown-has-lost-nearly-20-pounds-since-senior-bowl

 

He dropped because he got his lunch ate in 1-on-1 drills at the Senior Bowl against the top athletic D-linemen. I remember his lateral movement was nonexistent.  He will have a hard time picking up loops and stunts.

I am bumping this thread because I listened to Rhule on WFNZ interview and he made my day.  He was talking about specific guys they wanted to target and he specifically mentioned Brown.  

So he wasn’t just an afterthought and hopefully has a role on the team. 

I so hope he makes it.   I would love to see him pancaking guys every Sunday

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
