Stock down?
DI Derrick Brown, Auburn
Some view Derrick Brown as a top-three pick overall, and while that's somewhat of a puzzling thought in and of itself, Brown's Combine performance makes it even more head-scratching.
The Auburn defensive lineman placed in the bottom seven in the 40-yard dash, vertical, broad jump, three-cone (where he finished dead last) and 20-yard shuttle. We didn't expect the 6-foot-5, 326-pound interior defensive lineman to be lights out in his testing, but we did expect a little more from him.
He's still a great prospect and likely top-10 player on our big board, but this class contains insane high-end talent. Brown has been a great run defender, tackler and pass-rusher from a grading perspective (84.0-plus against the run and in the pass-rush in each of the last two seasons). With his testing numbers, though, there's some concern as to whether or not he'll be able to hold his own in the pass-rush at the next level.
