Brown was being double teamed frequently today

[electro's horse]

Just rewatching it now and he's regularly drawing an extra blocker. 

You learn a lot about players with seasons like this. Obviously as Panthers fans we have a lot of experience with these kinds of situations.

I don't know if Brown will ever "live up" to his draft position, but he's definitely turned into an NFL caliber starter. And he's still out there playing hard for a worthless team.

He was an absolute force for that Rams line to handle

Brown has been great this year. Some, if not all of these games will be brutal to watch down the stretch, but focusing on specific players (i.e. Derrick Brown) makes it a bit more manageable.

with cmc aging and or being traded with burns, and brown blooms into anything worthwhile he is next to be the top contestant on most wasted player

And then horn

Reminds me of watching Charles Johnson in the 2010 season.

He’s developed into a terrific player 

please do not trade him 

[AggieLean]

Yea, he looked good and has been playing well this season. Rhule & Snow held him back a bit, but luckily for him, both of them are gone and he’s still a baby in this league. He is a guy I wouldn’t trade. One of the few untouchables.

Sometimes all a kid needs is a real NFL coach.

I’m surprised the light came on for Brown this year. He showed flashes as a rookie but definitely had a slump in 2021. He’s definitely worth keeping around through the next coaching staff. There’s a lot of good pieces on the defensive side of the ball to build a playoff caliber defense. Hiring a guy like Demeco Ryans could be the right move and develop them into an elite unit. They’d need a top quality OC though.

Brown has been playing much better this year. 

We should still keep in mind that Ram's interior yesterday featured center Jeremiah Kolone (UDFA - cut multiple times), Alaric Jackson (UDFA - rookie), along with Bobby Evans.
