Draft Profile: Bio
Logan Brown only picked up football as a freshman in high school at his father's urging, yet quickly transformed into a five-star recruit and All-American Bowl selection. His raw athleticism translated beyond the gridiron, where he captured back-to-back Michigan Division 1 state championships in shot put and placed eighth at New Balance Nationals. His multi-sport background laid the foundation for a frame that screams NFL tackle.After signing with Wisconsin in 2019, Brown's journey took several detours. He redshirted his freshman season due to shoulder and biceps injuries before gradually working his way into the rotation over three seasons, making just three starts at tackle. His Badger career ended abruptly following a practice altercation with a teammate, leading to his transfer to Kansas. The change of scenery proved transformative - Brown anchored the Jayhawks' offensive line in 2024, earning Second Team All-Big 12 honors while paving the way for an offense that averaged over 211 rushing yards per game.
What makes Brown's story even more remarkable is his management of Type 1 diabetes while competing at the highest level of college football. The 6'6", 311-pound tackle with massive 34¾" arms cites his grandfather as his most significant influence, pushing him to maximize his considerable potential. After six years in college, including a breakout final season that earned him a Senior Bowl invitation, Brown now looks to translate his late-blooming success to the NFL level.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Natural athlete with a frame straight out of central casting – 6'6" with 34¾" arms and vice-grip hands that latch and control defenders with alarming ease.
- Rolls his hips through contact in the run game with nasty intentions, creating consistent movement that turns defensive linemen into unwilling passengers.
- Patient pass protector who mirrors edge rushers with surprisingly nimble footwork, showing the discipline to stay square and avoid lunging against speed.
- Devastating initial punch that arrives with perfect timing, jolting defenders and immediately establishing dominant leverage in protection.
- Flashes road-grader potential on angle-drive blocks, where he torques and finishes with the mean streak coaches crave in their offensive line room.
- Shows impressive movement skills climbing to the second level, tracking linebackers in space with the coordination of a much smaller man.
- Possesses the snatch-trap technique to neutralize power rushers, stealing their momentum and redirecting it to his advantage with subtle hand fighting.
- Displays scheme versatility with the athletic profile to excel in zone concepts while possessing the raw power for gap schemes.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Too often sets flat against wide alignments, exposing his inside shoulder and creating soft inside rush lanes that savvy defenders exploit with counter moves.
- Shows concerning indecision when reaching the second level, arriving with authority but hesitating on contact, allowing linebackers to slip blocks.
- Tends to strike down the middle with his outside hand, creating vulnerability to dip-and-rip moves against technically proficient edge rushers.
- Lacks consistency sustaining blocks through the whistle, occasionally letting defenders work free late in reps just before plays finish developing.
- Processes stunts and blitzes a half-beat too slowly, getting caught on island blocks when assignments require quick mental adjustments post-snap.
Scouting Report: Summary
Brown profiles as a developmental tackle who flashes legitimate power in the run game while showing some refinement in pass protection. His athletic testing jumps off the page, but the tape reveals a player whose strength lies in creating movement at the point of attack rather than in protecting the edge. Zone-blocking schemes will maximize his ability to climb and seal at the second level, though his raw power translates well to gap concepts when asked to drive defensive tackles backward.The technical refinement visible in his final season at Kansas indicates a player still ascending despite extensive collegiate experience. His run blocking outpaces his pass protection considerably – when moving forward with bad intentions, Brown can be downright dominant. Those same aggressive tendencies can work against him in pass sets, where his impatience against counter moves and inside rushes remains a concern. Teams will need to drill consistent pass set landmarks to maximize his natural length and mirror ability.
Brown fits the mold of an early day-three selection with legitimate upside to develop into a starter by year two or three. His medical history (Type 1 diabetes) requires monitoring but hasn't limited his physical development or athletic profile. After bouncing between programs and positions earlier in his career, Brown found his footing at Kansas and demonstrated the growth trajectory coaches want to see.
