2018 NFL Draft: Roquan Smith, Baker Mayfield, others stand out
Orlando Brown, Offensive Tackle, Oklahoma
Orlando Brown is a mountain of a man, listed at 6-foot-8, 345 pounds. He’s generally considered to be a first or second round player, but depending who you talk to, this guy could be a top 10 prospect at the left tackle position.
In 2015, he was named a freshman All-American. In 2016, he was a second-team All-American. In 2017, he was named first-team All-American, and early on in this game against Georgia, you could see why.
This block had me rewinding the tape live and watching over and over again…

In case you’re wondering, that’s All-American linebacker Roquan Smith that Brown just slaps to the ground.
This guy has pretty good movement skills, and obviously the size and length to excel at the next level. He’s been stellar in pass protection all season, and despite being rough around the edges in his technique in some areas, he has big time potential.
I think this game really shined some light on the ‘best’ of what Brown can be at the next level.
