Bob Brown
 

Brown_Bob_Draft_2_5
An All-America guard at Nebraska, Bob Brown was drafted in the first round in 1964 by both the Eagles and the Denver Broncos of the then-rival AFL. Here he’s being congratulated by Bobby Waltson (l), Eagles scout, and Billy Joe (r), Broncos fullback.
Brown_Bob_BW_Posed_Action_2
Choosing the senior circuit, Brown began his impressive pro football career in the “City of Brotherly Love.”
Brown_Bob_NFLP_Purring_2_5
An aggressive blocker, the 6-4, 280-pound Brown used his size and strength to neutralize hard-charging pass rushers.
Brown_Bob_Arm_2_5
Brown also had a large intimidating factor. His physical style often left his opponents with aching ribs on Monday morning.
Brown_Bob_Rams_Color_2_5
In 1969, after five consecutive all-league seasons with the Eagles, the behemoth lineman was traded to Los Angeles. That year the Rams offensive line set an NFL record for protecting the passer.
Brown_Bob_NFL_Action_Oak_2_
From 1971-1973, Brown lent his services to the Oakland Raiders alongside players such as Jim Otto, Gene Upshaw and Art Shell.
Brown_Bob_BW_Sideline_2_5
Brown was named All-NFL seven of his 10 seasons in the NFL. He was also chosen to play in six Pro Bowls – three with the Eagles, two with the Rams, and one final time with the Raiders.

Here Bob battles fellow Hall of Famer Deacon Jones.
Brown_Bob_Hawaii_PC_321_3_3
Brown was more than happy to recount his feelings after learning of his induction into the Hall at a press conference in Hawaii before the 2004 Pro Bowl.
