Legette is tight-hipped with a linear release that makes him susceptible to press. He uses his route running simply as a means of getting to the rendezvous point rather than a chance to con coverage out of position. His star shines brightest once the ball goes up and he’s able to use his body control, play strength and ball skills to impose his will on the coverage. He’s unlikely to become a smooth route runner, but he can handle tough catches and he has stealth acceleration that makes him a credible deep-ball threat. Add toughness as a runner and run blocker to his profile of competitiveness and he becomes a Day 2 talent with the potential to develop into a starter.
Brown’s short-area elusiveness can make him a fun watch on receiver screens and jet sweeps. His smallish frame will be an issue for teams concerned with long-term durability, though. He can run with separation speed vertically but isn’t built to win contested catches on any of the three levels. Brown displayed ability as a punt returner in 2022 and he might be pigeonholed as a “gadget guy” and punt returner if he makes a team.
