Add in the fact he's a bit undersized to play strongside and the history of FSU pass rushers in the NFL and he's got lots of bust potential.

Oh well, we need an OLB, too - don't we. He could go either way.

Watch a little video on the guy, he doesn't look to bust-worthy to me.

Definitely less risky than Orakpo or Maybin.

So many DEs are high on potential every year & so many of them are busts or avg. in the nfl. I think it's easier to find the tweener OLB to play in the 3-4 than it is to develop an every down DE in a 4-3.

I like E. Brown a lot. He is a smart guy & will develop & adapt his game to the nfl given time. I don't like Orakpo due to his durability issues.

I think long-term Brown could be a Charles Mann type player; a beast on the field while well spoken & smooth off it. Good character & work ethic, stayed in school a year after being draft eligible & graduated in 3.5 years. If the top 4 OTs are off the board & EB is there, I'd be happy if the skins call his #.
