Okay, he needs to keep this up. Maybe I need to go watch some Jenks video but Brown is dominant right now. 

Jenkins was a more of a pass rushing threat on a more consistent basis. He wasn't the physical freak DB is. 

DB has a much higher ceiling. He just needs to keep getting better and keep dominating.

I loved the guy and was really pissed when he was traded (wasn’t he traded?) And it took us until Gettleman to seriously address the position. Which got me to loving Gettleman out of the gate.

He could use some pass rush help right now so he can't be triple team at least. That crap pisses me off. 

This is why I think Brown might actually be the better of the two. The DL Jenkins played on was beastly. HOFer Peppers on one end, good starter Rucker on the other, and good starter Buckner was probably the weakest link. The opposing OL couldn't focus on Jenkins near as hard as they can on Brown.

What? You weren't thrilled with the Sione Fua/Terrell McClain combo?

That's a fair point. Also not benefiting from the defensive scheme either, IMO.

I think Jaycee is already the best CB ever to wear a Panthers jersey. yes Josh had one legendary season. Jaycee has been superb every single game he's healthy

DB is so so under appreciated. He is so disruptive in both the run game and pass game. He regularly rag dolls very good offensive linemen. 

Both easily start on the Panthers all time defense 

Jaycee can be. Multiple years playing at the level he is now and I will agree. Josh Norman was awesome.

Horn is a fuging baller.  And funny, prolly half the board wanted to get rid of him before the extension.

I think folks were just scared by the injury history. It’s basically chance. I feel like teams don’t have much of a choice but to resign their own draft picks but it feels like a big leap of faith when a guy has a lot of injuries.

That's still likely Chris Gamble at this point. Bradberry deserves at least a mention if we are talking all time great Panther CB's.

Horn is on track to surpass both but I would say he has to sustain that level of play for a few more years to supplant them. 

On paper he is more talented so hopefully he leaves the game as our best ever.

very fair

I think DB CAN be better. I don't think he is quite yet.

DB’s run defense might make him better. It’s so underrated how different our run defense is with him playing. I’m probably bias though as an Auburn fan.

No doubt. He is on track for an elite career and maybe a spot in Panthers history.

I still think it’s Gamble for now due to availability and longevity. He was so solid and got a high number of picks.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
