The guy is an absolute beast in terms of sheer size and strength, and he really needs to be a G because he's not athletic enough to play outside.  Orlando has a passion for the game that Marrone will love, and he'd be a fixture at RG taking names I could totally see it. I don't care if he runs a 6.0 40. I really like guy as an immediate starter to upgrade the OL in round two.

While I do not want to overreact to a combine workout either positively or negatively, I have to admit Brown's poor combine showing gives me pause, if only for a moment.  Prior to the combine, I had no reason whatsoever to doubt what you have typed here, and I was a pretty staunch advocate of his.

I am still inclined to believe he would be an asset to this team, and I think at minimum he'd make a good guard, but I believe he'd eventually make a good RT.  If the draft unfolded like this, I would be reasonably happy, but would have some concerns until his play alleviates them.

That would be a concern to me, albeit a minor one.

In my estimation (FWIW-though admittedly this is from memory, not charting), the Jaguars don't seem to pull their linemen much.  They don't seem to trap much or run the classic Lombardi type sweep.

They do run screen passes, though and I would share your concern about his ability to get out on those screens.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
