Comment:
Brown has excellent agility and speed. He is a pass rusher first and a run-stopper second. He seems to plays in spurts, but he has become more consistent and is tough to stop when he's hot. He has improved his array of pass-rush moves and can beat most blockers with his athleticism when he can isolate them. He has good body control and changes directions well. He can squeeze the quarterback with tight angles. He has quick hands that he uses well and gets good separation. He seems to have a decent feel for blocking angles and will make a lot of backside chase plays for a big guy. But Brown isn't always as dominant as his skills suggest he should be. He is adequate against the run but isn't big or strong enough at the point of attack against double teams and power blockers. He disappears into his own world at times and isn't consistently disciplined. He still is young enough to improve further, but one wonders how he would fare with a group of lesser teammates.
