he's looking real good right now. 2 real nice catches snatching the ball out of mid air and has a couple others as well. Practices are on NFL Network.

1) Happy for VB. Hope to see his name called out during the first round. But no matter where he goes hopefully he'll find success in the league.
2) "– San Diego State wide receiver Vincent Brown was very impressive making big catches all over the field. He was not afraid to fully extend for his passes. Brown plays a lot bigger than his recorded measurements — 5-foot-11, 184-pounds. He has the second longest arms at his position, second only to 6-foot-4 South Alabama receiver Courtney Smith."
That's incredible.

Todd McShay just talked about him on SC... said that he has been the Offensive Surprise of the Senior Bowl. Also said while he doesn't have the size or the elite speed he has made it very clear that he has the strongest hands out of anyone on the North team. Through the first two days McShay said he may have dropped 1 pass, catches everything and knows how to get open.
Go Vincent!!!!

"San Diego State WR Vincent Brown seemed ultra-focused on the field. He made precise cuts and would catch every ball that came his way, even poorly thrown ones. He used his arms well and showed toughness. Not physically impressive, but he plays the game well. Had a nice diving catch near the sideline early in one on ones that was extremely impressive."

Just got some more love from Todd McShay on sports center as well as clips shown by him at practice catching some tough catches. He said VJ has caught all but one ball thrown at him in both days at campus. Really impressing scouts. sounds like VJ could be a 2nd-3rd round choice.

Brown will do fine as long as Locker isn't throwing the ball to him!  |

Another: fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/01/25/day-1-of-n-f-l-s-unofficial-convention-the-senior-bowl/?src=twrhpVincent Brown, San Diego State: Brown put on a route-running clinic. His routes are very precise, and the defensive backs in practice could not stay with him. He gets separation every time he breaks on a route, and does a good job of coming back to the football. Brown instinctively squares his shoulders to the line of scrimmage, which gives his quarterback the biggest possible target. Of all the receivers on the North Squad, Brown appeared the most comfortable catching passes in traffic and after contact. On one pass, Brown made a difficult catch, took a big hit from a linebacker and held onto the ball. He has moves after the catch, and routinely gained yards once the ball was in his hands. Brown is a natural receiver; he simply plucks the ball out of the air. In blocking drills, the receiving coach singled out Brown to his teammates for his ability to use his pads, deliver a hit and keep his hands inside the shoulders of his opponent. He was the most complete receiver on the field Monday. |

It can't be a coincidence that so many WR's have flourished since Lecharls Mcdaniel took over as the position coach. Especially players who were given up on due to injuries, attitude, or perceived lack of ability early in their career at SDSU. Who would have guessed that Chaz Shillenz, Brett Swain, Roberto Wallace, Vincent Brown, and likely Demarco Sampson would all be NFL caliber players? |

Should be interesting to see how this next crop of WRs develop under McDaniel and to see what they learned from observing VB & DeMarco. |
