Here's a quiet guy that nobody really mentions. What are your expectations of him this year? With all the new rookies here, do you think one could push him for playing time (someone besides Joseph)???


What traits if any do you see in his game that get you excited??

Welcome back! I think Brown is the better of the scrubs. He can fill in for a game or 3 but expecting him to be your first stringer and not get exposed is optimistic

Welcome, brother! It's taken you a while but glad to see you here.

As for Anthony Brown, I believe he will be starting at one of the CB positions but eventually move over to a nickel or dime package spot once rookie Kelvin Joseph is ready to start.

I've been trying to get him cut for years.

They just gave Lewis 3 years. They must like that kid they took at 99. No way he starts over Diggs. Joseph is arguably already our best CB if his heads on straight.

Brown could be a veteran cut

Hey coog... I think it'll end up between Lewis and him in the slot. Honestly I think he had one of his worst seasons last year, but so did the whole D, so maybe he'll bounce back.

JMO but Brown isn't one of the 4 best CB's on the roster.

He is ok in a pinch but if forced to start a few games, yikes!

I like Brown. I don't get the hate. He's been one of our more consistent CBs and creates turnovers, and we got him in the sixth or something like that. He's not an all star, but a reliable guy.

I see it like that too. If he was a first or 2nd round pick I guess I would be disappointed. But he was a 6th. And halfway decent at CB. We've seen real crap at CB when the starters were injured.

Other than last year (a season where most of the team graded poorly) he’s been a guy who PFF scores in the 60’s. He’s an average/starter level slot corner. We are way too critical of guys based on a few memorable plays. Brown has been a solid player throughout the majority of his career.

He’ll be your slot CB starter. I believe Lewis will have a more hybrid CB/S nickel role as opposed to a traditional slot role.

Brown is in the mix, he has more fight than most fans want to give him credit for.
Most likely scenario is Diggs and Joseph starting.. so lets see what Brown has to say about that in camp.
Curious depth beyond Diggs Joseph and Brown/Lewis..... this is where we might see, hope to see a flash in camp with someone...

Goodwin

I think he starts. He is a little inconsistent but he does make some plays.
