“Brown looks like a college wide receiver right now. He is well put together and very strong for a wideout. Has the looks of a high school linebacker, but runs like a receiver, catches like a receiver, and knows how to make plays like a big-time receiver. Deceptive speed. Can make the quick cuts and he finds ways to get open. Very strong hands and a dependable receiver. Is going to be a go-to guy on the next level.”
