Oklahoma's Orlando Brown Jr., a projected first-round selection in the upcoming NFL draft, had a historically bad scouting combine performance.

Here's a look at the official combine numbers posted by the 6-foot-8, 360-pound offensive tackle at Lucas Oil Stadium:

• 14 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press

• 5.85-second 40-yard dash

• 19½-inch vertical jump

• 6-foot-10 broad jump

Those numbers are really bad.

Historically, offensive tackles post a tad more than 25 reps in the bench press, run the 40-yard dash in about 5.24 seconds and average 28.4 inches in the vertical jump and more than 8½ feet in the broad jump. Brown's bench press total is the second-worst among offensive tackles at the combine since 2000, per Pro Football Reference. Marcel Jones — a seventh-round selection of the New Orleans Saints in 2012 — had 13 reps. Jones never appeared in an NFL game.

Brown was projected to go No. 12 overall to the Cincinnati Bengals in USA TODAY Sports' latest mock draft and was the top-rated offensive tackle in the 2018 draft class, according to Draft Wire.

It's safe to say that Brown's draft stock is trending downward.

Granted, these observations are what is cultivated via official combine data and not what transpired when representatives from NFL teams met with Brown during his stay in Indianapolis. That aspect is unknown.

Brown has the on-field credentials. He was a unanimous All-American selection in 2017 and a two-time first-team All-Big 12 pick. He has the pedigree, as he is the son of Orlando "Zeus" Brown, who played nine seasons as an offensive linemen in the NFL for the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns.

Baker Mayfield came to the defense of Brown, who protected the Heisman Trophy winner's blind side in college.

Let's hope nobody working out Saturday — when quarterbacks, wide receivers and tight ends take the field — experiences a combine quite like the one Brown endured.

Brown, meanwhile, gets another chance to redeem himself when Oklahoma hosts its pro day on March 14.

Orlando Brown going from a lot of money to pocket change fast. 14 lifts yesterday on bench, 5.72 40. Will need strong pro day. #NFLCombine2018 — Gil Brandt (@Gil_Brandt) March 2, 2018
