Round 3: Spencer Brown, OT, Northern Iowa
Chicago fills a need in the third round with Brown, who’s an imposing figure at 6’9, 315 pounds. He’s a quality athlete for his size and has the kind of rare length that makes up for any of his athletic shortcomings, too.
Is he ready to start right away in the NFL? Probably not. But for a team desperate to land a starting right tackle at some point before the 2021 season kicks off, a player like Brown could be thrown into the fire immediately.
I’m a fan of Brown and believe he’ll be a quality starter in the pros. Adding him in the third round is a nice value-meets-need pick.
