News: 4th Round Pick Brown Signs
...posted by Jon Schneider...
4th round pick Andre Brown out of North Carolina State officially signed on with the Giants yesterday making him the sixth of nine draft picks to receive a contract.
Brown showed good play making abilities out of the backfield in college rushing for 767 yards and starting all 13 games.
As well as run, Brown also showed he can catch the ball out of the backfield, accumulating 29 receptions for 309 yards during the ‘08 season.
Brandon Jacobs only caught six passes during the whole 2008 season and is not particularly known for his receiving. Brown could come in and make an immediate impact as a backfield receiver for screens and dump-offs.
