What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Emeritus - 03-06-2018
The combine couldn't have gone any worst for a potential first rounder in the last decade. So what round would you start to look at drafting this guy if any. There are some tools to work with so where do you think he goes in the draft? With our new offensive line coach and his rep would you go third round or later? Myself with what we have in place I'd still go early third round. There will be many teams who think they can "fix" him so... What do yo think?
I don't see a team drafting him in the first couple rounds now. Dude lost a few million in two hours!!
A few clips: vs OSU/ vs Texas

0 percentile athlete. That is crazy.
Being big works in college. Not enough in the nfl.
I remember a few years back. That huge TE/OL from Baylor. He actually had a hint of athleticism. Didnt even get a sniff by the nfl.
My major red flag before the combine was lack of effort. Add the very real lack of physical traits to that...
I just dont know. I was a fan of Zach Banner late last year. Huge with nfl bloodlines. Colts took him in 4 and he was the earliest player drafted to be cut but was claimed by browns.
Maybe that Whit compensatory pick in 5 i would gamble on Orlando.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Bilbo Saggins - 03-06-2018
5th for sure. Maybe earlier if there were a serious run on tackles. Burfict didn't test well. Many scouts thought that he was a top tackle before the combine, so he probably has a shot at being a good pro still.

I would be happy taking him in the 2nd. Folks around here are tripping.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Yojimbo - 03-07-2018
Depends on what we draft before him and who is still on board ahead of him, but earliest, 3rd comp or 4th.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Go Cards - 03-07-2018
3rd or 4th
He is a big man that is not getting pushed back but believe speed rushers will get by him easily in NFL.
For that reason do not believe he will play LT either.
Not against taking him and view him as a gamble pick with high upside if it pays off.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Jpoore - 03-07-2018
4th
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Au165 - 03-07-2018
The tape is the tape. I think he is still a 2nd round pick, maybe later in the 2nd now, but a 2nd nonetheless. My guess is a lot of the stats improve at his pro day and people start to relax.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - ochocincos - 03-07-2018
I think a better question is What Would Marvin Do?
Marvin has known Brown his whole life and also values tape among everything else.
I think Marvin would pull the trigger in Round 2.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - jj22 - 03-07-2018
5th. He's a RT only (if that) and there are far better prospects in round 2-4 at that position.

True. Hardy Nickerson isnt on our team because he is an NFL caliber player
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - Hammerstripes - 03-07-2018
No issue at all taking him in the 2nd.
His tape doesn't reflect the 0% athlete.

I think Banner is a good comp. He's a no for me. I'm tired of taking guys who are injured, don't prepare, or don't go hard.
Brown did two of those for the combine, so tape or not, I'm just not interested. I think the risk isn't worth the reward in this case.
RE: What round would you draft Orlando Brown - CJD - 03-07-2018
I'd happily take him in the 2nd and I'd pounce on the chance to draft him in the third.
Big men with long arms are very prone to bad combines. That doesn't change how amazing he was in college.

Yeah 3rd round or later. The dude still didn't give up a sack last year. It always matters more about play on the field.
I think he could be a solid RT for us in case Fisher is not the answer.

A first team all american with a horrible combine.
That's the whole debate of where you'd take a prospect like this. I still say that come May and he happens to be a Bengal then I'm happy.
