Draft Scouting Report

Rating: 67.92 (Practice squad)
Pro Comparison: Robbie Chosen
Summary

Sam Brown is a tall, explosive outside receiver with long-striding speed and big-play potential. He thrives as a vertical threat, using smooth acceleration and run-after-catch ability to stress defenses downfield. Though he flashes some route flexibility, he’s not a polished technician and relies more on athletic traits than precision. His hands and contested-catch ability are inconsistent, and he struggles to finish through contact. Brown projects as a developmental deep threat with speed-based upside but needs refinement in his route running and ball skills to become a more complete target.
