On April 23rd, Brown's fans holding their number 6 overall pick in the upcoming draft might be eyeing the pass for clues. Over the last 10 years, teams picking 6 have seen a mix of busts and stars from quarterbacks and tackles to receivers and guards.

Quarterback play or injuries, proving value at number 6.
Top tier name shine brightest. Jamal Adams flashed all pro early before injuries hit. Ronnie Stanley anchored Baltimore's line for a decade. Herbert's racked up over 24.
