The Baltimore Ravens have selected offensive tackle Orlando Brown out of Oklahoma in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft, 83rd overall.

Brown was projected as a first-rounder prior to the combine. However, an all-time terrible performance at the event caused him to fall to the Ravens.

In a strange twist of fate, the former Oklahoma standout's father, Orlando Brown Sr., played for Baltimore for six seasons.

What the analysts are saying

  • "Tackle with rare size and length whose massive frame can work for him in pass protection and against him in the run game." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
  • "Brown uses his rare girth and length to provide a clean pocket and wide rushing lanes for dynamic skill-position players on his team to exploit."
    - Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout.com
  • "Many believe Brown's best fit is on the right side, but Brown has all the power you'd expect with balance and agility." - Luke Easterling, DraftWire
