they say he's from baltimore, but isn't he from greenville?

4/16/2009 2:08:24 PM

He moved from Baltimore.

4/16/2009 2:35:05 PM

Paging simonn!

Haha is our $20 bet still on?

"Brown was born in Baltimore and his mother still lives there, but he moved to Greenville, N.C. as a high school freshman. He still counts as a Baltimore native for the NFL’s purpose of local visits. "

Quote :

"Brown ran the 40-yard dash in 4.47 seconds at the NFL Scouting Combine to rank as the fourth-fastest running back overall, registering a 37-inch vertical leap and bench pressed 225 pounds 24 times."

That's nuts

4/16/2009 3:24:26 PM

New England's gonna get him with one of their 2nd rounders.

4/16/2009 3:35:54 PM

^I hope not, I can't cheer for them ever

4/16/2009 9:51:37 PM

just please do not let him go to the Panthers. he will never see the field.

4/16/2009 10:05:13 PM

let's go chargers. i don't watch nfl, but it would be one less stat line for me to look at if he and philip were on the same team.

4/16/2009 10:05:50 PM

he's gonna go to the eagles..

in the second round of our mock draft

^^^Don't think he would get much PT on the Chargers. I would like to see him go somewhere where he will have a chance to compete and get PT.

4/17/2009 1:31:24 AM

why not? LT will be done in a year or two. i don't think sproles is a fulltime back. if he did go to the chargers he could get some carries until he took over

4/17/2009 2:06:17 AM

I, too, think that the Chargers would be a good fit. LT isn't going to be around forever and Andre would probably see more at least #2 back carries by the end of his second year in SD.

if you go find where we posted that and you actually agreed to it, i'll honor it. i really can't remember if you did or not.

4/17/2009 5:14:31 AM

found it. i'm not one to renege on a bet, but i'm not honoring this:

i'm a huge andre brown fan, but i'd almost put money that he will not be on an active nfl roster this time next year, injuries or not.

I got money says he will make a team....

4/17/2009 5:53:58 AM

I could see Brown to the Chargers. I read at one point that Norv Turner had mentioned P-Riv was "in his ear" telling him how good Brown was. I really don't want to see him on the Patriots though, but I'd be happy with the Eagles.

4/17/2009 9:14:06 AM

He is not going to the Chargers.

4/17/2009 9:19:31 AM

Chargers don't have a 2nd round this year.

He won't go #16, and he'll likely be gone by the time their third rolls around. Unless they move back they won't get him.

4/18/2009 5:14:13 PM

^^^ P-Riv was here 2000-2003 and Brown was here 2004-2008. They never played together. So unless P-Riv is scouting former NC State player's for the sake of being teammates with them, that doesn't hold water.

The PATS like him A LOT

4/19/2009 10:15:10 PM

^nooooo, that will make him useless as a fantasy back

no shit, really?

btw, Brown gave a really good interview on Monday to the 850 guys

4/22/2009 9:05:42 AM

not bad

4/26/2009 11:42:07 PM

really woulda thought he went like 3rd round. oh well though, not a bad team, i can root for the gmen

4/26/2009 11:49:39 PM

He's going to have to work HARD in camp if he's going to beat out Danny Ware for the 3 spot.

4/27/2009 12:47:42 AM

The Chargers would have taken him five spots later, which I think could have been a better spot. Good luck to him winning out the RB3 spot with the Giants, or the Giants keeping him on as the 4th while he develops.

4/27/2009 5:02:33 AM

Congratulations Andre for being selected by the NY Giants. You were always a class act, and I really appreciated you taking the time to meet with my Upward Bound Students during the summer of your Freshman year at NCSU.

Best of luck with everything in NY man!

i think its the other way around...sort of.
I think Andre will come in with his attitude and work ethic and make a strong push for that spot over Ware

71 overall with 88 speed in Madden

93 Carrying and 91 Toughness

I'm saying that's what he has to do. Ware is the #3 right now. The coaches are very high on him.
