Congratulations Arthur Brown Sr.

[BearCat204]

There aren't a lot of hot spots of competition in camp, but two to watch are at punter and backup running back. Philly last week signed longtime Cowboys punter Mat McBriar to compete with second-year veteran Chas Henry, but if McBriar has recovered from the nerve condition that plagued his plant foot in 2011, this really shouldn't be much of a battle. McBriar has twice been to the Pro Bowl and led the league in punting average in 2010. Henry had a so-so rookie season, finishing 25th in gross punting average (42.9) and struggling with consistency. Put your money on McBriar and leave it there.
As far as who will back up the talented LeSean McCoy at running back, rookie seventh-round pick Bryce Brown seems to be ahead of Dion Lewis and others early in camp. There's always a chance a veteran like Cedric Benson or Ryan Grant might make the Eagles' radar screen at some point, but for now it's Brown, an intriguing talent who took a very strange route to the NFL.
He spent time at Tennessee and Kansas State in college, but played in just 13 games overall, with all of four carries for 16 yards since transferring from Tennessee when Lane Kiffin made his hasty departure for USC after the 2009 season. Brown is a solid 6-foot-0, 223 pounds, and he catches the ball well, can block and is versatile enough to line up almost anywhere in Marty Mornhinweg's offense.​

That's a bold statement right there.

Your son was a 7th draft pick and got a whopping $50,000 signing bonus and $537k/year for 4.

Trent Richardson got $20 million guaranteed for 4 including a $13.7 million signing bonus.

Just thought you would like to know the cost of cowardice and stupidity: about EIGHTEEN MILLION DOLLARS.

LOL Brown quit on UT, he quit on KState, and he will quit on the Eagles too. Just a matter of time.

BTW, it looks like Brown doesnt like getting hit. hahaha

I'd be interested to know what he does after he makes his 2 mil in the league. I honestly don't see him lasting longer than four years. Not trying to be hateful, but what on earth has his path prepared him for after football? His dad really screwed him over...

OJ didn't like to be hit either but he did ok (before all the murdering, of course).

Yeah, Brown showed he didnt like to get hit when he trucked a linebacker during his 33 yard run last night

Brown can be a very solid NFL back. Some of our fans just don't see that.

He has distanced himself from Polk and Philly will need a back who can bang a bit and Shady and Dion are not that back. Bryce will make a role for himself if he continues to play the way he has been.
