WR Noah Brown (Washington Commanders)

Regarding the Brown to H-Back discussion, I said this back in July:

I like Brown at H-Back because it looks like he could be used as a RB/FB/TE/WR.

Big, athletic, great ball skills, powerful runner, not afraid of contact.

I think he would be a perfect H-Back, but regardless of position, he is a dynamic playmaker that can be dangerous all over the field.

I hope Ohio State (and Urban's offense) make an impression on him during his visit.

Noah would be interesting at H if they drew up some stuff for him...I loved how Oregon used Colt Lyerla in 2012 before he fell off the wagon. They'd line him up at H, tight as a TE, flexed wide, wherever. Granted, he had a legit 2 inches/20 pounds on Brown, but it was refreshing to see some creativity.

I thought I remembered Hernandez getting carries at UF, but a quick check shows he had just one rush in his career. Maybe I'm recalling a TE screen or two?


Just by watching Noah's film you can see he's a mismatch nightmare with his size. He doesn't have the elite speed as the rest of our WRs do, but he has elite speed for a TE/H back. All the schemes mentioned would seem to fit Noah as he has RB vision but is much larger. If he were to redshirt this year, im sure he could make thw transition.

I absolutely love Noah's game. His playing style (relative to the competition) reminds me of a mix between Anquan Bolden and Carlos Hyde. Some of his tackle-breaking sequences look like something straight off Christian Okoye's highlight tapes. He will most likely be a flex-TE in our system, and that is exciting when you consider we've never had a player at that position with those type of skills.

Is anyone still concerned about our tight end situation? :excited:

YES. If I can't haz Tyler Eifert and Kyle Rudolph this year, I will start to question the Urban Meyer.

But honestly, I can see the cause for concern up until the last month. Hubbard just got moved to TE (I thought he would at least start at LB) and even though Noah is enormous and was already approaching H-Back status coming in, he has just now reached the certain H-Back status. But I will say that there is now way that those extra 40 lbs. will be considered "good weight" by Coach Mick...hope you enjoyed your summer Noah, I see plenty of cardio and vegetables in your near future.
