John Brown (WR, BAL) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver John Brown is a forgotten man in fantasy circles. Everyone’s minds seem to only have room for one season’s worth of data on a guy, with many writing off Brown due to the injury-marred 2017. We get it: the sickle-cell stuff stunk to sweat and playing in Arizona introduces a bit more altitude than Baltimore.

The Ravens saw 332 targets leave their roster this offseason and their best TE, Hayden Hurst, is not ready to go yet thanks to a foot injury. Brown has received glowing reports throughout all of training camp, with an emphasis on his rapport and timing with Joe Flacco. He stands a good chance of being a 1,000-yard receiver by season’s end, making it criminal that he is owned in less than 20% of leagues.
