Overview

Listed as a tight end by Tennessee, and even lines up in a three-point stance at times, but his future in the NFL is as a fullback or H-back. In today's NFL, most fullbacks are not blow-'em-up pounders but athletic position blockers who can catch the ball and play special teams. That's why Brown, who had 41 catches for 282 yards and six touchdowns in 2007, will be more coveted by teams than many people expect.

Analysis

Positives: Excellent hands in the flat or over the middle, and adjusts well to balls thrown behind, ahead, above or below the target zone … Smart, athletic player who can line up as a slot receiver, fullback, power back, moving tight end or in a three-point stance … Well-built, wide body … Has the flexibility to adjust to blitzers or oncoming linebackers and safeties at the second level.

Negatives: Adequate height for a fullback, a bit shorter than average for an H-back … Not really physical, more of a positional, get-in-the-way blocker … Will not drive a linebacker back in the hole … Not elusive in space with the ball in his hands, and will not run through tackles or outrun anyone.

High School

Named All-Captain's League and All-Metro in 2003 … As senior, caught 43 passes for 900 yards and seven touchdowns … Best game came against Lafayette Carencro in third round of playoffs, gaining 180 yards on nine catches with three touchdowns … As junior, caught 10 passes for 300 yards … Starting basketball forward, averaging 17 points and 12 rebounds. COACH AT JESUIT HIGH SCHOOL … Vic Eumont.
