Tennessee Titans to Bring in Everette Brown for a Workout

by Jimmy on Sep 12, 2011 2:01 PM CDT in Tennessee Titans News

Terry McCormick is reporting that the Titans will bring former Carolina Panthers defensive end Everette Brown in for a workout. The Titans obviously need help at defensive end with Jason Jones, Derrick Morgan and William Hayes all being banged up.

Brown is a guy that Jim Washburn could probably work some magic on. Of course the problem there is that Washburn is no longer with the Titans.

Brown was the 11th pick of the second round just 2 years ago. He was a stud at Florida State, but hasn't panned out as an NFL defensive end. He has 6.5 sacks in two years and was cut by the Panthers earlier this month.

Not sure if Brown is the answer, but the Titans may have no choice but to sign him because they need bodies at the defensive end position. There could be some help on the way. Jones should be able to go this week, and there is a chance that Morgan could be as well. I haven't heard an update on Hayes yet.

just Morgan for now. He can regain that nickname again after actually playing.

Debbie downer reporting in

This guy is a situational pass rusher who can’t get consistent pressure to save his life, relying way too much on speed and the spin move. Unless you plan to roll him at 3-4 OLB and retrain/rebuild him, I highly doubt you’re gonna find a diamond on this one.

Injured

Didn’t get a reported prognosis that I recall seeing, but I doubt they gave him an injury settlement because he’s ready to play right now.

Intresting....

I like this for two reasons...

First it shows this staff actually admits to problems, and looks to resolve them versus trying to make them seem like there is no problem

Second this kid was a beast in college. Sure there are plenty of examples of good college players who bust, but maybe he just needs a different scheme or change of scenery. He has only been in the leage 2 short years, there is a chance he could be a late bloomer and we could reap the rewards.

So I say he is worth a look at the very least.
