Darveon Brown

[HogsOfAnarchy]

This kid wants to be a hog and that excites me. He's a good student and sound like a motivated athlete. There's a good article about him on 247. Says he has arkansas, ole miss, auburn and Alabama looking at him. He's another great prospect coming out of arkansas and I hope we offer soon and get him committed. Can u someone post a link to some of his highlights?

[Razorhawg09]

Seen him in person at sideline level. He's very small. He's probably 5th in the in-state WR pecking order behind Hill, Pettway, Stewart and his teammate Marshall.

[RazorPiggie]

If we offer it will more than likely be in December or January. Because if we do that means we missed out on all the other guys we were looking at and he's plan B or C.

[#1 STUNNA]

He has the talent but his size will probably keep him from getting offers that he deserves.

Can you post the link?

[secneahog]

He's got the speed.

[RNHog]

He's got the speed.

For sure. He is a playmaker and He has always been known as Jay wright jr by coach Hembree in Warren.

I'm sure we will be seeing his name in the Arkansas camps.

A couple people have said this.  So the 6', 175 is exaggerated?

5'10-5'11 170 is probably more the range.

[MGB1229]

Guy looks like he can pretty much do what he wants before and after the catch regardless of size. Not much they can do to you if they can't catch you.   

[RNHog]

Bo has started since being a 9th grader. And has claimed he may be one of the best he has ever coached.

[ChicoHog]

remember Trindo Holliday from LSU?  He was really small, probably 5'7" and 170 at most. 

[RNHog]

Yup. KOR specialist for the broncos.

[TeedupHigh]

5'10-5'11 170 is probably more the range.

Wow that's a really big difference, about one inch and five lbs.....Kid is screwed by Hogville!

[flagstaffhog]

Isn't Trindon Holliday the smallest player in the NFL right now?

[FATHAWG08]

We need SPEED!! SEC SPEED!! Don't get caught up in the measurements. If he is a football player with special speed we need him. Get him in open space does it matter if he is 5'11 if they can't catch him.Florida & LSU always have a couple of these type of players. Get him to the edge Touchdown! We lacked this the last 2 years.

[Sooie71923]

Kenjon Barner, de Anthony Thomas, lamichael James, etc etc etc

All under 6 foot. All superstars. 

[RNHog]

Wow that's a really big difference, about one inch and five lbs.....Kid is screwed by Hogville!

Not telling me nothing I don't know. We need all the playmakers we can get up there. And he is one of them. Jarius wright was well under 6'0.

Not sure if you meant to post this link on the kid from catholic but Darevon is from Warren.

[Hogwild06]

Last time Arkansas got a small receiver from Warren he turned out to be one of the best receivers the hogs have ever had (Jarius Wright)

Yup. A lot of people said Jay was "too small".

Just like jay, a positive weight program is what he needs.

[RNHog]

FYI. Darveon scored 41 points in last nights basketball game.

Good catch, measurements were about the same as them were talking about. How about this one.

http://247sports.com/Player/Darveon-Brown-22253?Institution=6885

[RNHog]

Those measurements are about right.


Currently, Jarius is listed as 5'10 180 on the Vikings roster. I guess he is too small too ha!

[Hawgzinbowlz]

We need SPEED!! SEC SPEED!! ...

"SPEED"

[Adam Stokes]

I love the "Well here is the best player ever at the same height and they turned out okay" argument.  Yes it means "there is a chance," but measurables are still the one thing you can't teach.  That said, I look forward to seeing how he does and camps and hope the offers start pouring in.

Seem some pretty good WRs in my time around Warren
Jay wright
Chris gragg
Greg childs
Bret smith
Roshaun fellows
Terrance Hampton
Etc.

This one has the makings of being big time.

[secneahog]

I think when people refer him to j wright it's only purpose is to say someone with the same stature can get it done in the Sec.

Same town...same Hs coach...If the Hs coach says he is a Jarius jr then he probably is.

[SoonerSooie]

Please! Don't remind us all of this dude! I still remember his KO return!! AAARRGGGHHH!!!

[passinghog]

We need a slot receiver in a big-time way...

JoJo Robinson??

[LA Football fan]

Brown has the speed and moves to play SEC level.  The question is his hands.  Drops a lot of passes.  He really needs to clean that up this next year.  It is up to him to put in the weight training from now til fall if he wants the high level offers.  If not, he ends up at A State or UCA level.  Good kid and I hope he works on getting better.

I love it too.  I loved Jarius Wright and Joe Adams too.  The best two receivers ever at the U of A were under 6'.

[passinghog]

JoJo Robinson??

Since when is one ever enough? We need depth

[RNHog]

Brown is probably in the 5'8 155 range right now. Jarius Wright he is not.

Very inaccurate.

[sickboy]

You've seen him in person?

This is the thing that separates small guys in the SEC from the sunbelt.  Jarious has some of the best hands in college, and it's working well for him in the NFL.  Hopefully this kid can be that too, I honestly don't know.  Anyone remember jarious catch in te Tenner game behind the CB's back?

[Razorhawg09]

You've seen him in person?

Yes at field level on the sideline.

[sickboy]

Yes at field level on the sideline.

Sorry. I see that earlier in the thread now. How about on the field play? You weren't that impressed seeing him in person?

[razorbackfanatic]

Holiday is more like 5'6" 165. A Reggie Fish size comparison but with much better speed.

[razorbackfanatic]

Actually just looked him up and Wikipedia has him as 5'5" 177. He was closer to 170 in college.

Yeah, size can be overcome with will power and determination. Speed too.

[secneahog]

If he's at 175 his senior year and puts down some good camp numbers why not take a chance on him.

His video he shows some good moves, gets up field very fast.
Would be nice to get to a point where we can rs some wrs.

I'm not worried if the kid will get to the nfl with his size. I want him to be able to help us win games.

[Razorhawg09]

He was good. I like Marshall better.

[RNHog]

I really hope Jaylon Marshall attends camps. Hidden gem right there.

[mmhogs17]

If Brown is 155 lbs, he is like 5'4.


btw, Brown was given a rating if 89 on 247 today.. composite 4-star.

They are talking about Holliday being 5'5.

Darveon is in the 5'10-5'11 range.
