Another big issue is while the slow footed 350 pound RT worked for PA's scheme, he wasn't necessarily a fit for Pollack's scheme.
Brown has been better than Hart has this year, but he's by no means an upper echelon player and playing next to Marshall Yanda is miles away from playing next to Alex Redmond. The Ravens can definitely scheme to help Brown more than we could here.
This was heavily debated around the NFL and even on here (draft talk). Brown basically took the time from his bowl game to the combine off to rest and heal. He did not go to any of the combine training camps and was heavily panned for what was viewed as a lack of passion for the game. His actual game film told a different story. He was a dominant player at Oklahoma. He is a massive man with ridiculous wingspan, and he played a lot of LT at Oklahoma. Due to his size and supposed lack of mobility against speed rushers, he was projected as a RT in the NFL.
He was a much better option than Bobby Hart.
