BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 14% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: It takes a madman to roster a Lion these days, but here we are. Detroit stinks. It's as simple as that, so I'm not going to sugarcoat it. But among all of the bad things going on around Motown, the truth is that a little fine rookie has emerged of late: Amon-Ra St. Brown. And it looks like he will only keep growing as the season advances.
ASB was an afterthought through the first three weeks of the 2021 season getting on the field for a 64% snap share tops (in Week 1) while scoring 4.3, 4.8, and 1.2 PPR points in those three games. Then, the change. In the past three weeks, Amon-Ra hasn't fallen below a 69% snap rate, he's played a minimum of 47 individual snaps in all past three games, and he's racked up opportunities with 8, 8, and 7 targets of which he's caught 6, 7, and 5. ASB has scored 13, 13.5, and lately 9.6 PPR points in those three matches.
Obviously, Amon-Ra isn't going to win you the league--far from it. But for someone growing his role in a barren Lions offense, this production and target volume doesn't sound bad at all. Goff wouldn't excite even members of his family, sure, but ABS is making the most of his chances and his environment. He's finished in theWR3/Flex realm three weeks in a row and he's a solid pickup for those in the deepest leagues out there with upside for a WR2 finish eventually if he can score a touchdown once for all.
