E.Brown evaluation....

I don't think we can put a number on it, considering the limited playing time he's received. Nor can we fully evaluate at this point if the trade was worth it.

That being said, I think he's progressed along nicely. He was being pushed around quite a bit early on, but for the most part he seems to be holding his own out there. I like his determination to improve, and hope it goes a long way for him.

currently has 16 tackles, 1.5 sacks and 2 FF

tackles = sad but shud be expected with a limited role and being a pass rush specialist. his sack total is depressing too being with gambled BIG to get him. the 2 FF is nice but doesn't coverup the stink of 16 tackles and 1.5 sacks

if he grabs 2-3 more sacks and 10-15 more tackles in the next 4 games- i might consider the trade to get him not a total ass-hat move

i'm not upset. I'm happy we've had the luxury to spread out his playing time. And there alot of guys on that list that a lot of people pushed for over the last few years that are doing worse.

I wonder how Gholston would do in the 43?

I have wondered that myself. At the rate he is bottoming out, he could be had pretty darn cheap.

Would not be surprised if he is a casualty in the capless of-season. If not a low rounder could aquire him, although I doubt our FO would be interested as I believe it's his work ethic that is keeping him off the active game day roster.

it's funny because it seems like he's still really surprised that he can't simply push NFL tackles out of the way.

I'm pretty sure he has more than 1.5 sacks, that doesn't sound right at all. And he's had alot of sacks just barely slip away from him all year. He could have had 2 on Sunday.

Yeah, he was wearing out that Tampa LT late in that game. You can definitely see that he's progressing.

    • ^I want that, but Rodriguez over KC. Don't hate KC as much at that spot, but rather take a WR with the pick we gain in that trade than in the 1st. 
    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.
