Everette Brown, Florida State

everettebrown_Wisconsin_v_Florida_State.jpg

Height: 6-2. Weight: 256.

Projected 40 Time: 4.60.

Combine 40 Time: 4.73.

Pro Day 40 Time: DNP.

Benchx225: 26. Vertical: 31.5.

Projected Round (2009): Top 25 Pick.

1/9/09: The top 3-4 end in this class, Everette Brown notched 21.5 TFL, 13.5 sacks and four forced fumbles in 2008.

1/8/09: Pretty much a no-brainer for Everette Brown to declare early. He just had a big year and he already graduated.

11/16/08: Everette Brown's production has been amazing this season. In nine games, he has 15 TFL and nine sacks, which could prompt him to declare early.

O.K. listen for those freaking out (I DID AT FIRST TOO! I was like now I'll be waiting all over again NEXT YEAR!!!). I did some research and Mel Kiper projected him to go as early as #11 or #30...the Observer had him ranked #21 out of their top 100.

I thought we traded our second also but we still have that too!...so in essence we traded

A 1st rounder next year (which will hopefully be late)

for a potential #11 pick

and a fourth rounder this year...

plus we still have our second

Not to mention the kid's from North Carolina!!! Went to high school in Wilson...I really really like the pick (now well see about trading the #1)

I really think Meeks will do a fabulous job w/ developing Brown....Lots of "experts" say he's another Dwight Freeney, who was a Ron Meeks project...

Very Exciting...HE is the ONE person I wanted, and I just can't believe we landed him....

Based on value, the trade was even. A high 2nd and 4th for a generic 1st next year could be seen as the Panthers getting the better end of that deal.

As for the player selected, I wasn't a fan of Brown because I'm not a fan of the smaller DE BUT Meeks likes the smaller DE's. Johnson and Brown could become the next Freeny and Mathis. Considering his talent level, this pick was a steal at 43rd pick.

Horrible move by the Panthers front office. This guy is undersized and and he is not Dwight Freeney so everyone just shut their mouths. Unless he starts next season, he is not worth a first round pick.

Funny you say that.

1) When will you start working as a scout?

and

2) Did you notice most every draft group compares him to freeny?

I think this is a great move. He was projected 1st round and when he slid that far we were able to get him. If all goes well we gave the 32nd pick for a 2nd and fourth.

Doesnt need to start immediatley(unless something happens with peppers) can bulk up a little a be a force.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
