On the other hand, Brown had more sacks than any of the defensive ends that were picked ahead of him. Defensive ends generally don't do well in their first year (with a few exceptions). Its not a rationalization. Its just the way things are in the NFL. All draft picks are a gamble. This one was a gamble, that that jury is still out on.

So as of this moment you'd agree though Cushing is the best Defensive player from the 2009 draft and the Brown trade is a potential bust. At this moment.

I guess anyone has the potential to be a bust, but I don't think Brown is going to be one. Numbers wise, he is among the best rookie defensive ends in the league.

Its impossible to compare linebackers to other positions on defense from a statistical perspective. At the moment, I would say that Cushing is the best linebacker from the 2009 draft and Brown has shown more than any of the defensive ends drafted ahead of him. :)

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Exactly He's played two seasons and started 28 games. He's well beyond the point of being able to point to 2 or 3 games and being able to say, "THAT is the QB he is and will be in the future" Of course he can get there, but anyone trying to use just those couple of games to rank his place amongst the games QB's today and their full career's worth of playing at that level, is just asinine. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, Hurts, Herbert, Daniels, Stafford, Goff, Geno, Purdy, Baker, Love, Dak, Tua, Kyler, Lawrence That's 17 QB's right there that have played better over their careers than Bryce has played at his best.  And I'm not saying they're all studs or guys I'd want to be our QB moving forward, Tua for example I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole, but his body of work is a million times better than Bryce's has been. It's also not including any of the other QB's drafted in 2023/2024 other than Daniels. So again, say you believe in Bryce, say you think he's going to prove he can and should be our QB of the future, that's all fair and totally fine. But nobody can say he's been an above average QB in his career thus far, it's just an asinine notion.

      I'd think we could get one of those from Dallas for... whatever.
