Re: We should bring this Guy in
I don't see why Brown would sign here, or even why the Bills would want him, as a 3-4 OLB when he can go to a 4-3 team and continue playing his natural position.

Re: We should bring this Guy in
Apparently they couldn't find a trade partner. Brown is insanely durable.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Re: We should bring this Guy in
Sounds like a OLB transition candidate to me... from ESPN:
Brown is a bit undersized for a defensive end, but he has excellent athleticism to put pressure on opposing offensive tackles. He has great initial quickness off the edge as a pass-rusher. Brown has enough lateral agility and speed to make plays in pursuit. He uses his hands well to ward off defenders, while setting up a variety of pass-rush moves and counters. He isn't stout at the point of attack. Brown is a consistent producer who thinks pass-rush first and reacts back to the run. He is athletic enough to drop effectively in zone-blitz schemes and his versatility gives him added value. He is a mix-in starter who needs to play hard at all times to remain effective.Comment

Re: We should bring this Guy in
I thought I read somewhere that the Bears were virtually the only team left in the league running a straight 4-3 defense. Brown may have a choice of retiring or trying to make the switch to rush linebacker on a 3-4 team.Originally posted by TrEd FTWI've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.Comment

Please don't bring anybody else in unless they absolutely fit the scheme...we already have too many square pegs that we're going to try out in round holes.YardRat Wall of Fame

- All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
