Late round prospect discussion: WR Sam Brown Jr

I'm guessing y'all are just like me and have been running mocks where your first 5-6 picks are O-linemen (maybe the odd DT) and are staring at the last couple rounds with names you barely recognize. If that's the case I'd like to make a suggestion: Sam Brown Jr from Miami.

If the name sounds familiar it's probably from his time at UH when he was our #4 receiver in 2022 with Tank and was the #1 in 2023 with Golden. Like Golden he left with Dana but unlike Golden his transfer to Miami didn't bode well as he was an afterthought. I had thought of him as a decent FA pickup after the draft before the Combine where he did great.

He is 6' 2" with a 4.4 40 and a good 10 yard split with a great vertical. I don't think he's gonna end up as a #1 or #2, but I think he would be a pretty good pickup for a late 6th early 7th round flier to provide depth and focus on intermediate routes where he can generate YAC, which is what he does best.
