Equanimeous Tristan Imhotep J. St. Brown | Receiver | Notre Dame | 6'5" - 214 lbs.

Overview
St. Brown's combination of size and speed will be coveted by offenses looking for a prospect who can create throwing windows down the field with his ability to separate as the route progresses. St. Brown's competitive nature needs to improve as does his play strength to elude early pressure from physical cornerbacks. He has never been a volume target and has just three 100-yard games in his career. At this stage, St. Brown is more of a threat than a weapon and his ceiling may be an average starter or WR3.

Strengths
[list]

Tall target with long limbs

Plays outside and from slot

Early push into routes with quickness to decelerate and open and uncover on comebacks

Effortless glider

Much faster than he looks

Easy maneuvering around route traffic

Staccato footwork provides above average change of direction without slowing

Has build-up speed to overtake cornerbacks as vertical route progresses to third level

Willing to work over the middle

Able to eliminate pursuit angles and hit big runs after catch on crossing routes

Showed elevated concentration on tougher catches in 2016

Good feel for use of length to overcome cornerbacks down the sideline

Very few focus drops during his career

Has speed to hit the chunk play[/list]

Weaknesses
[list]

Competitiveness feels optional for him at times

Needs to play with more consistent urgency

Struggles with physical cornerbacks

Crowded and harassed by North Carolina's M.J

Stewart and finished with just one catch

Routes and stems are rounded

Needs to do better at disguising route breaks

Doesn't create as much downfield separation as he could with better route leverage

Doesn't extend to pluck and allows throws to get into him

Hand strength is below average

Has catches that turn into drops due to lack of hand strength through contact

Body positioning and ball adjustments down the field are just OK[/list]

4.48 forty yard dash

Had him ranked in the SECOND ROUND.

This dude has the skills, he just had shit QBs in college. I like the J Moore pick and the speedster project guy, but this dude has a high floor, IMO. Dude can run routes, play the ball in the air and GET DEEP.

Question on him is consistency.

St. Brown is a tall and versatile wide receiver. He has experience playing both outside and in the slot at Notre Dame. He is as quick as he is tall (6’5). He is a vertical threat but can also create separation for himself underneath or over the middle with nice footwork.

Offers true starter upside, rare for round 6.

St. Brown is someone who is inconsistent and doesn’t always show up on tape. He can make the contested catches look easy at times but will then disappear for long stretches. He could be a guy that has a big game early on in his career and become a folk hero in Green Bay, but he needs a lot of work to become a consistent contributor.

So why did he drop? Anyone hear any scuttlebutt?

Didn't know his dad was that John Brown. I remember watching him in the BB competitions. he had some pretty cool posing routines.

His production flatout dropped after Kizer got drafted because Notre Dame's QB situation was beyond garbage. I'd say that was the main reason.

I think I will call him Tristan. 😁
Nerd it took a while but you got your man.

current WR-
Adams, Davante
Cobb, Randall
Allison, Geronimo
Davis, Trevor
Yancey, DeAngelo

Filler WR-
Tonyan Jr., Robert
Pearson, Colby
Clark, Michael
Kumerow, Jake

St Brown should make the team as will Moore. Davis and Yancey are on the bubble. Valdes-Scantling might be on the PS.

What I noticed in what I've seen his will to fight to make a tough play and to get serious YAC. Size and strength definitely play into both of those things. Should be a solid addition. This will be a very competitive position in camp, as long as they have a competent passer to help them show what they can do, so not Hundley.
