Brown

Brown (5'10/185) has seen his stock steadily rise in the post-season evaluation process, as the Sooners CB was also voted the top defensive back on the American squad for his play during the Senior Bowl practices. In addition to running a 4.4 40-yard dash, Brown also recorded a 38-inch vertical and a broad jump of just over 10 feet. He will likely be targeted in the late-third/early-fourth round range of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Brown (5'10/186) has been a mainstay in the Oklahoma secondary, starting every game that he has been healthy for in each of the last two seasons. In 2020 the senior cornerback accounted for 31 total tackles (25 solo, 1.0 for loss), three interceptions and six pass breakups. Brown also returned to kickoffs for 86 yards during the Sooners’ Big 12 Championship Game win over Iowa State. The 2018 season was Brown’s best, as he earned first team all-Big 12 honors as a kick returner while also racking up 58 tackles (6.0 for loss) and 12 pass breakups. He has verified high end speed, as the Sooner CB was timed at 4.41 in the 40-yard dash at the Nike Football Ratings Championship back in 2017. Brown’s ability as a kick returner should help his prospects when it comes to making an NFL roster, as he is likely to be a Day 3 selection.

As with all 2017 verbal commitments, Brown’s pledge to the Sooners is non-binding. And as you can imagine, ball-hawking corners with speed to burn like Brown have been voraciously hunted by the nation’s coaches this cycle. Arizona State, South Carolina, Tennessee and Oregon are among the schools hoping Brown, the No. 171 overall prospect in the 247Sports’ composite rankings, re-opens his process.
