Brown was the 2nd overall pick in the 1964 draft, and was the Eagles' starting right tackle from 1964-68. He started every game as an Eagle, except for missing 6 games in 1967 due to injury.
He was named First Team All-Pro in '65, '66, and '68.
Brown requested a trade after the 1968 season, and was dealt to the Rams. He also made First-Team All-Pro in both seasons with LA.
Traded to the Raiders after 1970, he was Oakland's starting right tackle during his 3 seasons there.
Brown was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2004.
