RedzoneMonster 102 Posted October 5, 2017 He's only 36% owned on CBS. Am I missing something here? Dude has solidified the #2 WR role on an offense with no running game and a good schedule vs the pass. I'm not saying he's going to be a stud, but respectable #3 WR at least, right? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeshmoemt 0 Posted October 5, 2017 I've picked him up in my PPR league. Fitz is still the #1, but John Brown can't stay healthy, and Jaron is getting a lot of work. (Sneaky play, since AZ can't run, might take a look at Ellington). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,479 Posted October 5, 2017 I think he's still available just based solely of his lack of production over the period of time he's been In the NFL. Trust. I tried to get him but I couldn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Challenger 72 Posted October 5, 2017 Like you say, because he is a WR3. I can right now go to my WW and there will be at least 5 WR3 waiting for me to pick up. He has been consistent, that's the biggest thing you want out of your WR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,771 Posted October 5, 2017 I picked him up last week. Didn't have my glasses on and I thought I was putting in for John Brown. He's in my starting lineup now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted October 5, 2017 He needs to 100% owned. He may not be super explosive but they like him and want to use him. He's constantly on the field. So far it looks like John brown and jj Nelson are splitting one role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SexyRexy 60 Posted October 5, 2017 I just nabbed him and decided to flex him this week. He's flying under the radar of the fantasy community, and that will likely change after this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fitz cost drafters a mid round pick. Jaron is free and putting up similar numbers since week one. Here's more if you dig deeper: Jaron currently is tied for fifth in catches that have gone for 10 or more yards (14). This is especially impressive, considering he didn’t even record a catch in Week 1. Not surprisingly, Antonio Brown and Julio Jones(16) top this list, and Stefon Diggs and A.J. Green clock in right after with 15 such catches. So Brown is hanging in elite territory in this statistical showcase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the spanker 28 Posted October 5, 2017 You weren't talking about draft value. Your right. I'm talking about similar production you can attain for free that equals a mid-round pick right now. Dude it's not complicated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the spanker 28 Posted October 5, 2017 Sorry dart throw meaning guy I picked up off waivers for nothing and am immediately starting No problem.

IGotWorms 3,351 Posted October 5, 2017 He's playing a ton of snaps so far this year so that's good. But theguy has never done anything in four years in the league. I'm surprised he's even on an NFL roster with that limited of production. Was he a special teams guy or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Football Guru 214 Posted October 6, 2017 Now Brown didn't play week one. But the other three he did. And he's out scored in ppr ff Fitz two of those three games. Jaron Brown started and played 55 offensive snaps in Week 1. He wasn't targeted. Now to the larger point of this thread. Jaron Brown was blocked by a dude named Michael Floyd for most of his short career. John Brown is an obvious talent who can't stay on the field. J.J. Nelson is a speed merchant who should not be asked to play full-time with his size. Speaking strictly for fantasy purposes, the reason we can buy into Jaron Brown is that he is a bigger outside receiver - unlike John Brown and Nelson - on an offense that is throwing 64 percent of the time right now. When you consider Arizona has run more plays than any other team in the league, volume shouldn't be a problem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny_Bastard 154 Posted October 6, 2017 He's playing 90% of the snaps out there in an offense that will pass a lot. Should be owned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimaveli 119 Posted October 6, 2017 Zona was trying to groom Floyd to be in the role that Jaron now has. Our hint was them resigning Jaron after he went out for the year last year. Same season, they finally just dropped Michael Floyd. The last few weeks may be our proof that they were serious about him as long as he's healthy and performing. Add in that Zona is throwing the ball a lot and there's just more opportunity. Larry is the underneath route. John/jj are the djax 'eat coverage'/deep shot play guys. The rb is the 'keep em honest' check-down. Things are looking good for Jaron. Get in on it just in-case it continues. Remember when no one wanted to buy into Doug Baldwin fantasy-wise? He had been around for years, they said. He's nothing special, they said. How come he hasn't already been great, they asked. And then, it started happening for him. And folks won championships from it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
