Rhule transitioned DB to uptackle last year. DB brought that up before the season started. He mentioned that he lost weight to play the role and that he would do whatever was asked of him. 

I dont think Brown's size and skillset really limits him from playing the NT role. Aaron Donald plays that role... I dont know why DB couldnt. Not saying their outputs are the same, but their playstyle is the same. They are about being quick and add finesse the DT position as opposed to just bull rush play after play.

I'd much rather put Brown at one of the end spots and look outside for a true nose tackle.

Based on what Jordan Rodrigue said on the pod with Julian Council, she thinks we would a “power rusher” opposite Burns since he’s more of a pure speed rusher. Barno probably backs Burns up in that role

clowney enters the chat......

 

 

maybe able to finally get hi on the cheap and hes a elite run defender in 3-4. 

 

hmmm...

I would assume but I don't know. I honestly think he could play either DE or NT in a 3-4. I'm curious about his role because it think we're probably going to want him to lose or gain 20 pounds or so depending on which way we want to go with him. You don't see many 320 pound 3-4 DEs or NTs. 300 at DE or 340 at NT seems more fitting.

I don't think it's that black and white.  If we're to take a look at the Broncos' roster last year (since Evero is our DC now), they played D.J. Jones at NT who is listed at 305 pounds.

Yeah, that's considerably lighter than Brown has played probably since high school. That's my point.

Brandon Smith is going to be the ideal ILB for us. 6'4 240 and he has wheels while being a big boy.

Well he always has had the wheels and athleticism but lacked the instincts big time.  Hopefully great coaching can bring out his best.

I trust this coaching staff to make the right calls here…

His biggest issue in college was his tackling technique. He depended on his arm strength too often. The other piece was he was unable to shed blocks very well. All coachable.

True…the guy has all the tools physically.  I am very hopeful and honestly he will be given a great opportunity as we need him

    • 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
