Anthony Brown

[Alexander]

Been a real find. And proof you don't néed to draft CBs in first or spend a billion gazillion in free agency.

I think we hit it big time with this draft pick at 189

How did he play?
I think I saw a lot of tackles, so how good was his coverage?

 

[ActualCowboysFan]

9 tackles and a FF.

Maybe nobody told Kershaw it was the playoffs.

I think they told the Cubs batters, they cancel out Kershaw's choking.

Quick work of that garbage lineup

Anthony Brown has been playing outstanding ball. Got to give him his props.

He gave up some passes (got me angry) to Jordy Nelson that led to their TD, but overall he had a good game covering.

Were we in prevent?

I was most impressed with his tackling, an underrated aspect of playing CB.

Perfect DB for a Rod defense. Good size, can play man but has elite type speed in zone, and is a physical tackler. Looking like a great pick.

Brown isn't that far off from what Ramsey has been so far, IMO.
Dak is as good as either of the two QB's taken first and second overall.
Elliott is so far ahead of any other runner in this draft that you really can't make a comparison.

So, while many wanted Goff or Wentz... and while many wanted Ramsey... I'll take Brown, Dak and Elliott.

Coverage was not nearly as impressive as his tackling. Gives too big of a cushion for a guy with 4.3 speed but he's a 6th round rook playing a ton of reps. Excellent pick so far, great value.

This draft has the potential to be one of the best ever. How often do you get starting running back (Zeke), quarterback (Dak), cornerback (A. Brown), and defensive line (Collins and Tapper??), and linebacker (Jaylon Smith??) in one draft.

If you're going to hit like this on the draft then I Don't mind taking gambles like Jaylan Smith in the 2nd round. Even if Jaylan doesn't pan out or the nerve never fires up this draft is still one of the best in recent memory.

He should have played for the Stealer's as he was a steal!!!

Is there a downvote button?

How much cap space would we save by cutting Scandrick? Carr?

That's on the coaching staff not him. You can only play the coverage the coaches call for.

 

[SportsGuru80]

His tackling is outstanding. His tackles on first down runs his way are setting up second and longs which eventually lead to punts. Happened a few times last couple games.

Scandrick isn't as big of a fan of tackling...

Agreed but Scandrick is still a valuable piece to that secondary.

 

[Scandri100]

What a steal this dude is always in the right spot looks like a shutdown corner.

 

[Sydla]

Big fan of the kid.

Brown has been an amazing find in the 6th. It makes me wonder what we have with Frazier.

Brown is our Richardson Sherman. 6th round starting CB. Obviously the only difference is that Sherman plays the outside and I believe brown primarily plays the slot. Regardless that's value!
