Panthers are "very close" to a contract with brown

The Panthers are "very close" to a contract agreement with second-round pick Everette Brown, according to NFL.com's Jason La Canfora.

Most mid-rounders will sign by week's end, but getting Brown in camp on time would be a nice coup for Carolina. The Panthers gave up a 2010 first-round pick for the Florida State defensive end, which could've caused leverage problems in talks with his agent. Brown was the 43rd pick overall.

Kind of funny to say that about a rook starting in that sentence when Otah himself did.

Would be sweet if EB signs this week!

Speaking of which, last year gave proof that a lot of misconceptions about Fox were largely incorrect, but then again I'm not sure how many of the critics were willing to see it.

Oh sh1t...

Recent reports have revealed that Everette Brown will hold out of TC and demand a trade. Brown, the 43rd pick of the 2009 draft, stated that he does not believe he can reach his full potential in John Fox's defense. Brown and his agent have reportedly suggested 4 teams for GM Marty Hurney to seek trades with. Brown's agent has also stated that Brown would feel more comfortable in a 3-4 defense, as an OLB. This despite Brown never playing 3-4 OLB in college.

BREAKING NEWS:

It appears that Carolina DE Charles Johnson has also requested a trade per ESPN. Even though he is not a FA until next off season he will hold out. Sighting his differences with the team, he believes he has maxed out his potential in John Fox's defense. He and his agent have reportedly given 4 teams for GM Marty Hurnery to seek trades with. This puts Hurney in bind considering Johnson is one of the league's elite DE's.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
