Alo Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I guess you never got over the Auburn game Brown's most definitely a project, but his arm and athleticism are better than most of the other QBs in this class. I wouldn't go around denigrating his smarts, absent some info confirming your claim - he was a first year starter in '09, which just as easily could explain some of his pocket presence issues. Looking at the other AFC North teams, there's a case to made that you win in this division with a big, mobile, strong-armed QB. Brown is that kind of QB; I'd be interested to see what he could develop into w/ some competent coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browns smaller then all the QBs and not strong armed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopaji Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Is there a fascination with this kid? I missed it. Are we looking at him or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miktoxic Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 i guess people dont like truth speakers around here the reason people aren't responding is because no one here is in love with him or is that high on him or wants him as our qb. i might have seen one guy mention his name but it sure as hell didn't come before bradford, clausen, pike or lefevour.

WVUBrownsfan Posted March 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Is there a fascination with this kid? I missed it. Are we looking at him or something? appearentley had more scouts then anybody watching him at WVU pro-day and also watched him close at the combine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alo Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Brown's not particularly tall - just a shade under 6'3" - but he's got a big build, particularly his thick upper body. And he certainly has a strong arm. Here's ESPN.com's report from his pro day: The headliner at West Virginia's pro day workout was QB Jarrett Brown, who measured 6-foot-2 7/8; and 222 pounds and looked thick and well-built up top. We've raved about Browns throwing motion and release for some time and he looked very good in this setting. He snapped the ball off with his over-the-top release and threw tight spirals that drove down the field when he let it rip, though the ball did flutter a bit when he seemed to aim the ball on some deeper routes and his accuracy suffered some. Still, Brown's arm strength is excellent and his footwork when dropping from under center is improving. He has better rhythm and timing in hid drops and the scouts in attendance were impressed with Brown's physical tools. He needs to improve his awareness of the blitz and ability to read coverages, and he must make quicker decisions, so Brown remains a project. He has one of the better physical skill sets among the 2010 quarterbacks, though, and has moved himself into the early part of the fourth round. Though you shouldn't evaluate prospects off of YouTube highlights, you can see in this clip that he's got a strong arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alo Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I watched eight WVU games this year and compared him to the other QB prospects. He's got one of the strongest arms of the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rust Belt Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm a big fan of Brown. I think he will be decent in the NFL. I love his arm strength - definitely a necessity in Cleveland weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alo Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Damn. We're told that the low man on the quarterback totem pole was West Virginia's Jarrett Brown, with a 15. That's still two points higher than Dan Marino scored 27 years ago, when he matched his jersey number with a 13. via here. Still think he'd be an interesting option in the 4th or 5th round.

cambridgeho Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 WalterFootball.com has us taking Brown with our first pick in the 3rd round. Some of these mocks are out of control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with Alo on most of his scouting in the past, and I agree with this one too. He does understand the concept of putting "touch" on his passes, on the short throws, a bonus. But When he's scrambling the thing that I see is the ball is never tucked in. He Better fix that cause he's not not no Michael Vick and guy's will catch him from behind at the next level.

Earl34 Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I'm with Alo. He's got enough arm but what really comes out in the video is the footwork and balance. Great balance and what looks like enough scrambling ability to keep a play alive. I think there's a lot to like in this kid although the Wonderlic does leave a bit to be desired.
