Compare Jeremy Maclin to Antonio Brown? One Ravens coordinator did

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees dropped a big name when asked how he used to prepare for recently signed wide receiver Jeremy Maclin.

"Well, he was always a guy you wanted to double," Pees said. "He was a little bit like ‘84’ from Pittsburgh and certain guys you always get. When they are slot players -- especially guys that will play in the slot -- you are always looking to double him."

No. 84 from Pittsburgh is Antonio Brown, who is considered by many as the best receiver in the NFL right now.
