Kyler’s back as we all know and as often has been stated, last year in a 6 game stretch without DHop, Brown averaged 18 fantasy points per game and was WR6 I believe during those 6 weeks. Kyler and Brown are homies who played together in college and have a deep connection on and off the field.
But the biggest thing not many have pointed out is that do NOT be intimidated by the Falcons secondary and their red-ish color on Sleeper and Yahoo. Since week 5, the Falcons have given up the 4th most receiving TDs to WRs and as a bonus for Kyler owners, since week 5 also they have given up the 4th most fantasy points to QBs. So while the rating is currently red, that’s probably because of the week 1-4 equity. That color should downgrade after this weekend with a big game from Hollywood Brown. I see him being a top 15 play at the position with legit WR1 upside.
Kyler’s gonna pepper Brown with targets, especially with Michael Wilson possibly being out (but even if Wilson plays Brown’s getting targets galore). I expect Brown to have multiple catches and to find the end zone at least once (if not twice) for a monster day.
I don’t own brown and i honestly believe he is a start anyways, with or without Kyler.
However, I’m wondering more if Wilson could be this year’s ARSB (read: a rookie breaking out in the second half of the season)
