Noah Brown, WR, Ohio State: 2017 NFL Draft Scouting Report
By Andrew Kim
Was Noah Brown’s promising showing against Oklahoma in 2016 just a one game coincidence? Does he show the traits as a consistent red-zone target in the NFL?
After flashing big time potential in the Oklahoma game in 2016 with four touchdown catches, Noah Brown had a lot of eyes on him throughout his redshirt sophomore season in Ohio State.
Brown also had some hype going into 2015 before he suffered a broken leg during practice. But in this year’s draft process, Brown is not often talked about and could be a late-round sleeper in this class.
I would not be surprised if Brown produces more in the NFL then what he did at Ohio State as he was not utilized enough as a starting wide receiver.

Noah Brown decided not to run the 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine but ran at the Ohio State Pro Day. Ohio State does not make pro day numbers public but it is rumored that Brown ran between a “4.55-4.57” at his 40-yard dash, according to Jeremy Birmingham from Land of 10 and The Cleveland Plain Dealer.
