re: Redskins Reportedly Bringing OLs Elton Brown and Ray Willis in for Visit
2008 Scouting Report
Grade: 61
Comment: Brown is a four-year veteran who Arizona drafted in the fourth round of the 2005 draft and has been a part time starter since. He has had to deal with a bad knee since arriving in Arizona and was on the inactive roster for the whole 2006 season while playing in just nine games in 2007, starting five of them. He is a massive guard with a wide wingspan who can use his long arms to control and steer opponents on past the pocket. He is an above-average athlete with a little stiffness in his hips who has a tendency to play a little tall, or erect. He still needs a lot of technique work because he gets lazy with hand placement and often ends up reaching for blocks rather than adjusting and using his feet. He can be mentally lazy, take false steps and does not finish blocks off as well as he could. He has adequate lateral range in pass pro, but does not recover or adjust quickly to counter moves. He can create a new line of scrimmage with his drive blocks if he keeps his feet active and moving.
