He ran a 4.3 in private workouts at 6-1,220 lbs all after taking a full season off.

The eagles weren't the only ones impressed.

That is impressive.. IMO he was worth a lowly draft because if he does benefit them for one season they haven't wasted anything. Potential and upsize but don't think he'll pan out!

Is there precedent for someone like Brown to actually make it? I can't think of one player who essentially played second back for a season, transferred, then only carried 3/16 yds, got drafted, and made the cut. Just don't see it. Would be miraculous.

The Eagles once had a substitute teacher basically "walk on" and he played for 3 years.

It just goes to show the fallacy of the high school ratings - one guy is a true warrior and national champion - the other guy bails at the first sign of competition not once but twice.

IMHO, Brown will never be mature enough or have the gonads to play in the NFL - he needs to get his correspondence classes caught up and get some kind of college degree.

He was a superstar in high school - rated high coming out - maybe all the hype was a disadvantage but - he did less with what he had than anyone in recent memory.

Good pick by the Eagles in a throwaway draft position = there is about a 5 - 10% chance the man has football in him so give him a look. Bryce is a very poor man's Ricky Williams - I want to play - I don't want to play.....

Eagles are the biggest joke of a team in the NFL..this draft just strengthens the argument..draft someone like bryce brown when he couldnt even get the starting spot at KSU and poole goes undrafted? While not the best back on the boards by any means. I would still take him lightyears ahaed of BB. At least poole has some tape you can watch on him and has had some pretty decent plays in the SEC..knows how to block...

EAGLES ARE RETARDED.. they need a better decision maker

Poole was undrafted because he's garbage. That's the reason Bryce and Oku came in as true Freshmen and got snaps over him.

Your being sarcastic right? Poole belonged with some team like Miami of Ohio, Brown showed more in his freshman year than Poole did his entire career here.

While your last statement is something I've agreed with at various times ( albeit with a bit more sophistication than your display), I watched Poole run in quicksand long enough.

In the draft, it's about potential. ...and Poole's talent is average at best.

The 2nd RB spot at the Eagles is wide open. BB is perfect in their system. If he can play special teams and is good at pass protection, HE WILL MAKE THE TEAM

In the NFL, nobody cares what you did in college, it's all about potential

As much as you and some other clowns on here would like, his life isn't over

i didn't say i hoped his life is over.yes he has potential but what else do you have to go on.nothing,can he block,is he durable,and can he catch the ball coming out of the backfield.he ruined himself when he left tenn because he hasn't played.his highschool tape is all you have to go on.
