A big-play threat the last two seasons in Chapel Hill, Brown averaged 20+ yards per reception in 2019-20. He plays with an explosive burst both off the LOS, and within his routes; he can go from 75% speed, lulling a DB to sleep before opening it up to 100% and leaving the DB behind. He does well tracking the football, and after the catch, he can break tackles. Where scouts are warry, his route tree is lacking. He runs a basic college-level tree that needs development.
