Cmon boys wheres the Love for Brown

 

[Mister Sin]

No clue about this guy. Never heard his name.

 

[Akrasian]

So he played LT, but probably a guard at the next level - but should be able to swing outside if needed. Useful, versatile player who's strong. Good beef, in other words who will provide depth in 2015. Still would go with a vet signing for LG this season, though.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS
Thick, wide frame. "Run-around" defenders have a long way to go to get around him. Adequate power in lower half to get initial push. Quicker than expected out of stance and with initial steps. Can beat defender to the spot as position blocker. Play speed will be a plus inside. Straight-line mover in space with potential to be effective blocker on inside zone plays from guard spot. Has experience at both tackle spots and at guard. Uses club move to initiate movement.

WEAKNESSES
Doesn't consistently unlock power. Has length but doesn't use it. Slow to process stunts. Struggles when defender gets to his edge. Overextends and loses assignment in pass sets. Lowers head like battering ram at punch point. Below-average recovery and redirect talent when beaten. Scouts believe conditioning is a legitimate concern for him late in games. Puts skates on when headed to second level. Must play with more body control.

DRAFT PROJECTION
Round 4 or 5

SOURCES TELL US
"He could go much higher than anyone thinks because he'll be on boards as a tackle or as a guard. He can move and he has some power so he will hit more teams draft boards than some of the other guys in the draft." - NFC Executive

NFL COMPARISON
Dallas Thomas

BOTTOM LINE
Intriguing tackle/guard prospect. His mass and athletic limitations are best-suited inside and his quickness off the snap could be an indicator that Brown's best football could be ahead of him. With a wider base and better body control, Brown could become a starting guard or potential tackle in power scheme.

Sounds like he's played all over on the line.

They are adding some beef to the line.

I've had enough coffee for all of us

 

[Killgasm]

....and he's freaking wide af, that's a quality that I like for OG's. We are bout to run people over. We just need a center!

 

[Memphis Ram]

Good pick. Has the potential to be a stud OG.

 

[Amitar]

Wouldn't be surprised if the Rams wanted Hroniss Grasu before the Bears grabbed him. Kinda sucks.

 

[jrry32]

One of the few guys I just haven't seen much of. Guess I'll have to watch some games of him tonight.

 

[DR RAM]

He flashed for me when I was watching Miller, and I came away liking him more. He's big, athletic, has long arms, will be a Guard, but has excellent leg drive at contact. Needs some coaching, but he was one of the guys I wanted in the 3rd - 4th. Really high SPARQ score if I'm not mistaken.

 

[FRO]

I would keep picking linemen. Shotgun approach.

 

[Stel]

He's the guy I saw when I watched a Louisville game that moved from LOT to ROT and back every other play. It was weird. He's a road grader. Probably best inside but could probably cover ROT in a pinch. Not athletic enough to play LOT.

 

[badnews]

We've added 644 lbs of beef to the line so far....

 

[Memphis Ram]

I would. He's is good fit for zone run scheme, but not a power run scheme.

 

[Hacksaw]

About 650 lbs so far. He'll play guard,, And over 13 feet

Looks like he was projected pretty low. Hope we got 2 good players today. Only time will tell.

 

[FRO]

We will have a huge offensive line with Robinson, Saffold, Havenstein, and Brown all being 320 plus.
