Then, his freshman year, he played 11 games on defense. Within two years, he was named first team All-Missouri Valley Conference on the strength of 71 tackles, three forced fumbles, and three interceptions. During his senior season, he was again named first team all conference and third team all American.He has the right size and build
Sean Taylor Jersey , as well as speed (4.51 40 yd), to be a very effective CB at the pro level, particularly if he can find a way to increase his aggressiveness with receivers. Brown crushed the combine, and has seen his stock rise precipitously over the course of the last month or so, with whispers that he could go within the top 100 picks.StrengthsFastGreat athletic abilityGood hands, former WRStrong instinctsClosing skillsGood sizeWeaknessesNeeds more fireShort armsLack of assertivenessNot great in run supportLet’s see his workHow He Would Fit On The RedskinsThe Redskins already have one wide receiver successfully turned cornerback on the team - Quinton Dunbar.Jordan Brown could be a soft-handed bookend to Dunbar who could eventually be groomed to replace the overpriced and underwhelming Josh Norman in the Redskins’ secondary.Initial reports indicate that Brown has the capability to start as a slotnickel corner, with a strength in zone coverage. The fly in that ointment is that with his stellar combine performance, most NFL scouts are now awake to Brown’s “sleeper” status. The Broncos have pulled it off. And Washington has pulled it off. And Case Keenum has pulled it off.Thursday’s needle-threading trade solved a problem for all three parties, putting each in a better position than they would have occupied but for the trade.Denver dumped Keenum’s $18 million base salary and
Chase Roullier Jersey , more importantly, reduced its 2019 obligation to Keenum from $7 million to $4 million. The Broncos also picked up a sixth-round pick in 2020 from Washington for a seventh-round pick in 2020.Washington obtained a viable contender for the team’s starting quarterback job for only $3.5 million, with relatively minor draft-pick compensation. Now, Keenum can compete with Colt McCoy, and the better man will win the job. Washington also won’t have to use a high-round draft pick on a quarterback, or trade for Josh Rosen.Keenum ends up with $500,000 more than he would have gotten if he’d been cut by Denver, given that he wouldn’t have gotten $7 million the open market. He’ll instead get $7.5 million, and he’s landing in one of the only spots where he has a reasonable chance to win the starting job.And even though Keenum struggled last year in Denver
Wes Martin Washington Redskins Jersey , he had a great 2017 season in Minnesota. Keenum has a knack for escaping the pocket, moving laterally, buying time, and eventually finding wide-open receivers. In a favorable offense like the one that Jay Gruden runs, Keenum could be better than most expect.
