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.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
