Bryce Brown

After the Eagles acquired Darren Sproles this offseason, Brown became expendable and was shipped to Buffalo during the draft. While the Bills don't have the same offensive talent in place that the Eagles do, it may end up being a positive move for Brown even though he's still third on the depth chart – now behind C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson. Those two guys have not proven to be very durable, and Jackson in particular is ancient for a running back, so Brown will have a chance to work his way into the rotation. He did end last year on a high note, rushing for 126 yards and two touchdowns on just 11 carries in the last two games, and showed some big-play ability in the pass game as well. Brown's proven durable so far in his career, though he's had a relatively light workload, en route to a 4.6 YPC over his first two NFL seasons.

With LeSean McCoy sidelined four games late in 2012 with a concussion, Brown flashed incredible upside in his first two starts, showing a rare blend of speed and power while gaining 347 yards and four touchdowns. His next two starts didn't go as well as he totaled 40 yards and no scores, and he had problems with ball security – Brown fumbled four times, losing three. At 6-0, 223, Brown seems to be an ideal fit for new coach Chip Kelly's offense as he has the power to run through tacklers and sub-4.4 speed to run by defenders on the outside. With McCoy healthy, Brown will likely fill a complementary role, though the Eagles say the plan is to give both a "generous number of carries." If McCoy goes down again, however, Brown could become a top-10 back.

A former five-star recruit coming out of high school, Brown is a player with a lot of athleticism but a questionable attitude. The Eagles selected him in the seventh round of the 2012 draft hoping to capitalize on Brown's potential, but he'll need to show that his head is on straight if he's going to win a roster spot.
