it's amazing how fast things have changed re: burns and brown

i would like to remind all you fugers that i was on the brown train before ANYONE! 

(actually not really even in that thread I started I just thought he was pretty good. Dude has taken the next step this year and is living up to his draft spot.) 

I remember arguing with ppl year 1 in the game threads who were saying Brown was a bust. Fans have no patience or ability to see things objectively

If Burns believes in himself enough, he should ask for a 2-3 year deal. At the end of that, the market will be even more crazy and the cap will be larger. 

But it's risky.

More like if he believes in the Panthers.  He obviously needs help to have any kind of impact on the field.  He would be best suited seeking that deal with a better team where he could shine in his role.

Hes a good player but he’s not a cornerstone.

Well, that just means he isn’t an elite talent and that his open market value is going to be far lower than he wants.

If that is indeed the case, he better very quickly take that long term $23 mil deal that we offered. He won't see that kind of money again.

Huddlers a couple of years ago...'Derrick Brown is straight up trash!!!!'  'This is why you don't draft a DT in the top 10!!!'  'His 3-cone shuttle time at the combine sucked!!!' 'Brown is lazy, out there collecting checks!!!'

I'm sure there are many more.

    • I already said things like speed and athleticism you either have it or don't. Like Tet's size and wingspeed. But a big knock on  Tet was that he didn't play as physically as you would expect given his size and strength. In fact he struggled against press coverage and couldn't get separation off the line or off the top of his break which is why he has so many contested catches to begin with. He was not great taking balls away like a Mike Evans was and would struggle against physical corners in the NFL. But he has what you can't coach. That is why we drafted him. What he lacks can be taught.  Legette has good size and speed. He actually could get separation but couldn't catch the ball using poor technique. Once again those skills can be taught. Both Legette and Tet have great physical skills and will complement each other. They are clearly different but I don't share your belief that their deficits can't be coached or remediated. One question with both of them will be their willingness to be physical in the run game and play with aggression.  
    • This might be my favorite quote from game 1.    "the Hurricanes seem to have it for stretches long enough that you could get up out of your seat, wait in line for popcorn, hit the restroom and get back to the stands — and not miss a Capitals appearance in the offensive zone."   Washington post
    • Its not blind faith, we just aren't jaded and can see that he provides something needed that isn't on this team. Like it or not, he is our only deep threat, jump ball guy, Tmac isn't that yet. He is the fastest and biggest reciever we have.  He is really good at getting position on CBs and he also blocks downfield.  Tmac is going to take adams role and get the most targets, Coker will be third and we better hope Theilen is 4th or 5th.
