Malcom Brown NFL Draft 2015: Scouting Report, Grade for Patriots' 1st-Round Pick

STRENGTHS

Malcom Brown was one of the most improved players in college football in 2014, which made his decision to leave Texas early for the NFL draft an understandable one. He has a thick, powerful, 6’2”, 319-pound frame with surprising flexibility in his lower body. He’s able to bend his knees and roll his hips to drive through blockers. Brown has power and speed, and he’s able to use them independently or together to get into the backfield. In the run game, he shows a high football IQ and is able to stack up blockers and shed to attack the ball-carrier.
