I like him a lot and think he has a chance to be a significant contributor.

Brown has yet to establish himself as one answer to what has been a relatively weak CB talent base. Until that happens, it's just guesswork. Sure, Bryan Broaddus has stepped up and given full approval of his potential but potential just indicates success is possible, not a given. Brown still has the burden of proof to overcome. That's nothing to take for granted.

No one on this board is high about any Cowboy. Even Jason Witten. It's all about recent and future failure.

Yeah....nobody is pumped about zeke around here

We have his over under set at 3,000 rushing yards but we expect him to be a bust

Still like this pick a lot. Heading into final cuts:

Brown

Carr

Claiborne

Olatoye

Scandrick

Thomas

Solid 6 cornerbacks for the year. I'll take it.

Carr, Scandrick, & Claiborne are your starters with the abundance of nickel defense as a base. Brown, Olatoye, and Thomas can compete for that 4th spot. 5th and 6th guys still might be needed or get some run. I don't trust Claiborne fully.

The pick was a good one for the 6th round. Many people had him rated much higher but the film that I saw wasn't very impressive to me. He is very handsy and appeared to me to commit PI on nearly every single play. I suppose that can be corrected and there were some good reports coming out of OTAs. It was even speculated that his performance in OTAs was part of the reason they let the 2 CBs go unexpectedly. Brown is certainly a player to watch for in camp and preseason. We need a few guys like him to step up and become solid players.

For now I will put him in with all the 6th round picks, PS players. Until we seen them. Each of them really need to impress. As I think they go long on the DL before they keep an extra DB.

I thought if Brown makes the team, he would because they keep an extra DB / ST type player. But I put Mitchell and Olatoye over him. But Mitchell has since been released. So I moved Brown up for that spot if they keep 10 DB's. If 9, then PS
