Depth/upside bet — WR role isn't locked starter volume yet.

DVS is our model view, scored on Engine-default half-PPR — not a guaranteed price in your league. Bye weeks and schedule strength are left out on purpose.

Quick answer

Watch

Brown caught 5 passes for 83 yards in 2025, finishing WR170. He scored about 29% less than his touches said he should. WR89 slipped to WR170 last year; that's the warning. Only 4 games in 2025 — availability is the headline. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
