Oregon’s Pharaoh Brown Signed by Oakland Raiders

Oregon tight end Pharaoh Brown was signed by the Oakland Raiders following the 2017 NFL Draft from the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The 6-foot-6 UDFA signee finds himself in one of the most potent offenses in football, alongside a top-tier quarterback. This could be interesting.

Many “experts” didn’t believe Brown would be chosen, even after a pro day that elevated his stock. They were right. However, I thought he would hear his name called late in the draft. The talent is there.

This is the first time since 1985 that no Oregon player was selected in the NFL Draft.
