Overview

Marquise Brown is an explosive playmaker.  He is threat to score any time he touches the ball.  You can line him up outside or in the slot.  His game is very similar to DeSean Jackson when he came out of Cal.  If it wasn’t for the injury that he suffered during training, he would be a first-round pick.  I still expect him to get drafted in the second round.
