Awesome news, this guy looks good at a number of positions but it would appear he's a TE, right?

Welcome to the Ducks Mr Brown!

That seems to be the position that Oregon offered him at.

The ducks already have like 4 DE commits so I gotta think that he's a TE.

The Ducks also have visits from a couple other high level WRs, so it looks like they will take another WR in this class meaning that we'll take 2 TEs and 2 WRs.

Is he the best TE prospect out of the hybrid ends? I remember when some people were wondering what Jim Harbaugh was doing stocking up on all those TEs but really, these are the kinds of guys that are awesome on the end/edge

True.

And Tuinei has always been a hybrid TE/WR type of guy so I'm not surprised were recruiting more dudes like that. French is one, and Brown is another.

Baylis looks like he'll be more of a traditional TE, so it's cool to think of having 2 TE sets going on with lots of big guys out there.

Stanford is another big WR... I've heard that French isn't cutting it at TE though so we'll see what happens with him. Right now it looks like Lyerla will be the starter next year with White hopefully getting healthy enough to contribute. And then we'll have the young(er) guys behind those two.

That's not accurate - Tom Osborne was recruiting Brown.

Tremendous pickup for Oregon. Love the direction Chip is going with the TE's. Oregon is going to have some amazing athletes at TE next year (Lyerla, French, Baylis, Brown). Would not be surprised if we see more 2 TE sets (we saw it a couple times in the OSU game). Look at the new wave of TE's in the NFL - they are all fantastic athletes - Jimmy Graham, Gronk, Hernandez, Jared Cook, etc.

Brown is an incredible athlete. Brown is kinda like a big receiver. Despite only playing the position for a year, he's actually a pretty darn good route runner. In his highlight video, he also throws a nasty block on a run, absolutely leveling the defender. Brown looks a lot more polished than Christian French did at the same stage. Could definitely see him playing early.
“If everybody in this room just want to be real with themselves, this game could have went either way,” he said. “We turned the ball over a lot. We beat ourself. Just be real with yourself right now. We beat ourself.”
