02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Arthur Brown projects best in a 4-3 Cover 2/4 system where he can leverage his athleticism and range in zone coverage and against the run.

Will LBNickel LBCover 2/4 LB
Best role

Year 1 rotational linebacker with potential to develop into a starting Will linebacker who excels in coverage and provides sideline-to-sideline pursuit.

Wrong fit

A two-gapping 3-4 front that asks him to consistently take on and shed offensive linemen, which his relatively slight frame and play strength are not suited for.

Brown's athleticism and coverage skills are assets, but his size and strength limitations could be exploited in schemes that demand consistent downhill power.

04The evaluation

Selected #56 overall in Round 2 of the 2013 NFL Draft by Baltimore Ravens out of Kansas State.
