It’s difficult to ignore Northern Iowa right tackle Spencer Brown. Standing 6-foot-81⁄2 inches tall and weighing 314 pounds, he stands out in just about any crowd. However, he was largely ignored in college recruiting, coming to Northern Iowa carrying a 0-star rating as a 6-foot-8, 244-pound tight end.
Brown made the logical transition to offensive tackle and quickly became Northern Iowa’s starting right tackle. He managed to maintain most of his athleticism despite adding 70 pounds, and proved to be just too big for most pass rushers to beat at his level.
The NFL is always hungry for starting offensive tackles, and Browns traits are the kind which always catch teams’ attention.
