Omar Brown

[Lightlock]

Omar is a lock-in for sure in my mind. When you have only about 2 1/2 games worth of time to make a statement, and you make multiple highlight plays in that time, there's nothing more your coaches can ask for.

The kid has talent... they say if you can do it twice it isn't luck and he did it twice. I haven't been impressed with Considine at all. Omar has great ball instincts and is a play maker, I really think we have found a great player in Omar Brown!

[Perfekt]

ny player who makes plays for us should be a keeper in my book.

Brown is definitely putting on an exhibition that is for sure!

This made me laugh.

I love this kid and if I'm a coach, I'm bending over backwards to find him a spot on that final 53.

[ravens88]

last year i remember plenty of plays where we caused a fumble but didnt recover it if he is magnet for em im all about keeping him.

[SideStep77]

He's definitely making a name for himself on the team, he's standing out and I think the Coaches have to have an eye on him. We like playmakers. Even if he's just a "play finisher" its still very impressive to see what he has done in just two games.

[Greatness]

Gotta give it to the man, he's making a lot of plays. And with a team full of guys who don't like to make those, he'll be a much needed addition.

[BloodRaven]

I never liked Considine.

dude must be watching videos of reed with all these TOs hes getting

There's a difference though. Reed causes it, Brown just happens to be there at the right time. Don't get me wrong, I'd find a way to get him in the 53, but I'd rather find a way to keep both Streeter and Deonte Thompson first. You can't teach Streeter's size or Thompson's speed.

I've never agreed with the phrase "In the right spot at the right time."

If you recover a fumble, or catch a "lucky" pick, it's because you're playing your assignment, tracking the ball, and hustling. It's not being in the right spot at the right time; it's playing smart football.

[GrimCoconut]

I like Brown a lot. I believe he made his case. The only thing that will lose him the job is injury or if he really messes up big. I have loved his play.

5'11, around 200.
sizing up to be the next Reed.

[ravensfan160]

If this was last year it would be hard for him to make the roster. We had nice safety depth last year. But with Nakamura and Zibikowski gone our backup safety spots are up for grabs. If nothing else he has outplayed the other backup safeties which should earn him a spot.

He's even getting national attention. I saw an article about "under the radar rookies" and Brown was mentioned.

[bmore ravens]

I suspect that Omar Brown has just been extremely lucky thus far. He had only 4 interceptions his senior season, 3 his junior season, and [b]no fumble recoveries his entire college career[/b]. He has been opportunistic when the opportunity has been presented but I would think it's 80% chance.

Then you did not watch Chris McAlister in 2008

[BloodRaven]

It's a good thing we've got two more games for him to make a case for himself.

[descent into the maelstrom]

Is this his first game playing special teams? He got a fumble recovery and return. It was nullified by a penalty, but I'm still convinced this guy is the real deal. He's picked up where he left off in the preseason. I just don't buy that it's always a coincidence. He seems to be a bonafide ball hawk.
