Eagles attempted to trade for Brown in 2022

I understand some are skeptical of the source but their rumor articles have actually been quite accurate over time.

https://walterfootball.com/nfl-hot-press-eagles-offered-first-round-pick-for-derrick-brown-in-22.php

 

Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman has been among the most active executives in the NFL in working the trade market. In back-to-back drafts, Roseman traded up to land a defensive tackle from Georgia. Last year in the days before the draft, I reported that the Eagles wanted to do a slight move up for Jalen Carter, and that is what they did on draft night. The year before they moved up for Jordan Davis. Interestingly, prior to moving up for Davis, the Eagles had their eye on a similar freaky athlete defensive tackle. Per sources, prior to the 2022 NFL Draft, the Eagles offered the Carolina Panthers a first-round pick for Derrick Brown.

 

The Eagles had decisions on getting better in the trenches, and Brown certainly would have helped there. After being the seventh-overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Brown has turned into an excellent interior defensive lineman. Then Panthers general manager Scott Fitterer turned down the offer. Brown was viewed as one of Carolina’s long-term building blocks, and new general manager Dan Morgan and head coach Dave Canales will have to decide if the organization is going to sign Brown to a long-term extension.

 

 

After not getting the Panthers to trade Brown to them, the Eagles set themselves up with the Bulldogs duo of Davis and Carter, which should work for many years to come. Carolina is faced with some huge decisions now on paying Brown as well as a difficult situation regarding defensive end Brian Burns. The Panthers have to decide to extend, franchise tag, or tag-and-trade Burns over the next few days. Every year, there are many trades that are turned down, and the Eagles getting turned down for Brown has left a big impact on both franchises.

I’m old enough to remember when Panther fans were declaring Brown was a bust. But imagine that, they were wrong and Brown is now one of the best DT’s in the League.

One of our last elite players. Only a matter of time before the fanbase turns on him when he's up to get paid.

I don’t think that will happen with Brown. He is one of the best interior distruptors in the NFL. He deserves to be paid as such.

Yeah, it's been almost universal that the fanbase wants he and Luvu to get paid. 

I think this dude is a Burns simp, so he's just sour that people see through that situation.

No. He's actually elite. Big difference.

And everyone currently wants him to get paid so not sure what you are trying here

Brown is not only elite, but seems to truly care.

Remember when he roughed up slantboy in the locker rooms hallway after the game?

Because for almost two years he looked like a bust. He was very bad considering where he was drafted. And yes, he was elite this year. And people changed their minds. Seems logical. What’s the issue?

Don’t know why people on this forum act like they’re a pro scout and have some sort of crystal ball, saying they were right by what criteria? Watching YouTube highlights?

Albeit people here do need to be more patient.

Yep.  Brown was touted as a grown ass man out of college that was ready to push around pro offensive linemen.  He was considered one of the safest picks where he was selected.  His first two years he played like dog water.  He turned it around in year 3 and he was phenomenal this year.

I already ate my crow on Brown.  I was wrong.  But he did not look good until year 3.

      Panthers run ONE play on repeat

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is one explanation of Bryce--He has never been the underdog--aways played with a lead, always had the best team, best OL, and usually, the best WRs.   Since high school. Now imagine a bully who punches you in the arm every time he walks by you.  At first, you walk by with confidence and it catches you off guard.  Then you start flinching and taking side steps to avoid the hit.  He still hits you.  This happens for an entire year.  Now think of what you would do if you walked by him and he didn't hit you.  You would still dodge, duck, dip, and dodge, and people would look at you like you were an idiot.  Point: even when Bryce had a clean pocket, he was not confident and he prepared to be hit.  This guy talks about him being out of rhythm etc.  Then he still blames Bryce when he demonstrates that there was no separation and the routes were predictable.  In addition to that,  he mentions that Bryce often had LESS than 2 seconds to throw before getting pressure.  So the Defense knows you have to throw because you are behind--they know what play you are going to run--since they can cover you in man they can rush 7, play man under with cover 1 or 2 support over the top---vs. your 5 OL and a RB who can't block.  Our TEs were not open.  Bozeman decided to suck hard, and we had 9 different players start at both G spots.  Campen sucked, folks--was saying it all year.  So Bryce flenched on the rare occasion that he was protected for more that 2 seconds.  What does flinching look like?  Feet out of position (Cam had the same issue--the brain tells the feet to run), timing off (second guessing due to previous forced errors) etc. Bryce needs to go back to feeling confident in the pocket.  I hope he is not traumatized by 2023.  He has to be second guessing his ability--like you are.  Self-fulfilling prophecy.

      Agree, it mattered last year and we got a superstar. We should get a very very good starter this year as well.

      That's kinda what I thought when Rhule got fired but then Tepper was like I just hope that we've actually found true rock bottom this time and we're ready to trend upwards.
