1.16 Detroit Vipers - WR Marquise “Hollywood” Brown

Wide receiver has been a position of need for the defending TUFF Bowl Champion Vipers for almost all of this decade.  No Vipers WR reached 800 receiving yards last season, and their depth at the position was so poor, they had to pick three receivers out of Indianapolis’ garbage (Dede Westbrook in 2017, and Willie Snead and Rashard Higgins last year).  Enter Marquise Brown.  He is known for speed—according to Chase Goodbread of NFL.com, he was clocked at 4.33 in the 40yd dash last year.  But he’s really small at 166 pounds.  He suffered a Lisfranc sprain in Big 12 championship game last December 1 and tried to play through that injury before undergoing surgery.  He has drawn comparisons to DeSean Jackson.  Bottom line, Hollywood Brown could be in Detroit’s Week 1 starting lineup.  Fun fact: His nickname has nothing to do with the Hollywood in California—he’s originally from Hollywood, Florida.
