    Ohio LB Blaire Brown

    [​IMG]

    5'11" -- 238 lbs

    Played WLB at Ohio and his lack of arm length was an issue going against bid OTs. That would not be as big an issue at ILB though.

    The main knock on Brown was that he "Appeared" to not have good speed and athleticism and looked like more of an Avery Williamson type LB. However he performed very well at the combine including a 4.65 in the 40.

    Actually I was re-watching Corey Davis footage and spotted Brown make a lot of stops...

    Wish draftbreakdown had cut-ups of the guy tho... Gotta get creative to scout Brown, no one cares enough about Ohio football to feature his game tape online...

    Which is a shame because there are a couple good players on that Ohio defense

    Notes of what I've seen so far of him:
    • Active feet, slides laterally well to avoid blockers
    • Good first instinct, reads play and goes
    • Keeps shoulders parallel to the line so he doesn't get caught out of position
    • Tackles with his head up - sees what he's hitting
    • Plays with good balance and a wide base
    I'd like to see more of him in coverage, but he plays so many spread teams in the MAC that I don't know if he's even really played any teams that line up with an inline TE that they use in the pass game very much.

    He doesn't seem like the body/athlete to be a man coverage guy on a big body TE, but comes down hill on RB's in the flat well.
