2019 NFL Draft Prospect Profile: WR Marquise Brown

The Pittsburgh Steelers seem to have their slot receiver position locked up between Eli Rogers and Ryan Switzer but should they want a versatile, speedy addition then Oklahoma’s Marquise Brown could be an answer. And yes, I know who he’s related to…

Background

University of Oklahoma
Wide Receiver 5′ 9″ 166 lbs

– 2019 NFL Combine Invitee, Did Not Participate due to Lis Franc Injury
– Human Relations Major

2018 Stats

What’s To Like

Works back to the ball well… Could be a serious ‘run after catch’ threat on underneath stuff… Really good in the open field/Uses quickness to avoid big hits… Versatile across the formation/Comfortable in the slot or out wide… Wicked change of direction… Has great speed which seems to only get better when he has the ball… Threat to score every time he touches the ball… Immediately gives you the ‘over the top’ threat opening things up underneath… Excels in clutch situations.
