Courtney Brown DE - Browns Madden Career 2002-2006 - Peak 94 OVR
A number one pick whose promise injuries stole
Courtney Brown had the size and power of a franchise pass rusher, and when healthy the Penn State product flashed exactly why Cleveland took him first overall in 2000. The problem was staying healthy.
Madden had him at 82 as a rookie and jumped him to a 94 by the 2001 edition, off those early flashes. A grind of injuries kept interrupting him and pulled the number down, and a career that started with enormous promise never fully delivered.
