    Re: Arthur Brown - ILB - Kansas State

    I like Brown and Chris Harper to replace Boldin

    I think Ogletree goes first, and it's a toss-up based upon who the team is that decides ILB is the highest ranking player left on the board which goes after that.

    If I had to make a guess, Ogletree will go somewhere in the 18-24 range, and Brown will be in the last 6-8 picks of the 1st round (hopefully to Baltimore from my perspective)...Minter & Te'o both go somewhere in the first 15 picks of the 2nd round.

    We'll see how it goes.

    The one issue that I have seen with Brown, that is somewhat understandable when you watch the footage, is that you don't quite know if he's an inside guy in a 3-4 or that outside guy in a 4-3.

    +1. To me he looks like a WOLB in a 4-3. Similar to Lavonte David.

    Arthur had his pro day a couple days ago.

    40-yard dash in 4.67 and 4.68 seconds.
    32 1/2-inch vertical jump
    4.31-second shuttle drill
    7.07-second three-cone drill
    21 reps of 225 pounds.

    Arthur Brown is a phenomenal athlete, but there's more Jane than Tarzan in him. Just in terms of build and athletic ability Brown and Lavonte David are similar, but David was a much better prospect. He was far more physical and had more playmaking ability than Brown does. I like Brown, but to succeed at ILB in the NFL especially in a 3-4, you have to attack the football and make plays. Brown is much more of a "wait for the play to come to me" guy, which is what you do more of as a 4-3 WILL, and that's why he'll fit best in that position in the NFL.

    Brown is my 5th rated ILB after Ogletree, Minter, Greene, and Te'o. I do still think he could play 3-4 ILB in the NFL but he'll have much more of a learning curve at that spot and will need to be protected from OL getting their hands on him.

    Brown reminds me more of Navarro Bowman, who I think is the best linebacker in the NFL. So obviously I would love for us to draft him.

    As far as no insider backers going in round 1, I think Ogletree will be a first rounder without a doubt. However, I wouldn't be surprised if he was the only one.

    It seems like every time I see a mock this guy is higher and higher.

    Wow...that statement is just SO inaccurate, I don't even know how to address it.

    Either you've never watched Arthur Brown play a single snap of football, or you were paying attention to the wrong player.

    Mock drafts always overvalue players at non-premium positions like ILB, G and RB. Not saying he won't go before 32 because there's a very good chance he does, just sayin'.

    Other than Chance Warmack, I don't see any ILB, G, or RB in the first round of most mocks, other than Brown...

    I'm not speaking of this years mocks specifically, but rather mock drafts in general every year
