While Vernell Brown III is proud of his accomplishments on the football field, he's also just as proud of what he's done off of it. "When I’m in school, I’m in school," Brown told Fox 35. "I don’t think about football. But when school’s over, then it’s time for football." That focus on academics paid off with a 4.91 grade-point average and straight A's throughout his high school career. "He’s a young man that you never have to question. Never look to see is it his, is he going to do what he’s supposed to do," Jones coach Elijah Williams said. "He’s the type that any coach would want 10 of them. You got 10 of him, you’re going to win a lot of games." During the 2023 season, Brown racked up 70 receptions for 1,363 yards and 10 touchdowns. "He's electric with the ball," Williams said. "He's the type of player you find ways to get his touches. He can take over a game."

Elite / Top 100

Skilled wideout with arguably the best after catch ability in the cycle. Measured at 5-foot-10.5, 173 pounds at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior year. Has a 29.75 inch arm and 9-inch hand. Registers as a plus athlete in track and field, running a personal best of 10.91 seconds in the 100 meters as a junior. Owns a well-rounded skill set with the ability to threaten all three levels of the field. Very loose and fluid in his movements. Has excellent lower body flexibility. Stacks corners off the line of scrimmage. A skilled route-runner with considerable shake. Shows the ability to separate vertically. Truly dynamic with the ball in his hands. Has phenomenal vision in the open field. Slippery and shows high-level contact balance. Confident and assertive in space. Transfers over to the return game, where he has a case as the best return man in the cycle. Shows strong ball skills for a smaller wideout. Plucks the ball with his fingertips and shows flashes of high-point ability. Great body control. Leaves his feet to make diving grabs. Turned in a strong junior season, with 1,363 receiving yards (19.4 yards per catch) and 10 touchdowns to go with 4 touchdowns on returns. Highly competitive in every setting. A three-phase playmaker, also playing on defense. Has a smaller frame that could limit his catch radius and play strength as the competition level increases. Runs well, but can continue adding to his top gear to maximize his skill set. A high floor prospect who likely projects as a slot first wideout with the potential to develop into a versatile option capable of lining up all over the formation.
