19.4 PPG with Burrow vs 14.1 without; elite with competent QB
Chase BrownRB
Performance split with Joe Burrow is dramatic and confidence-building: in 8 games with Burrow, he averaged 19.4 PPG (RB3 finish); without Burrow (Jake Browning era), he averaged 14.1 PPG (RB18 finish). The source is very comfortable drafting him in round 2, citing the Bengals' projected top-5 offense and strong offensive weapons despite a weak O-line. His Flock Fantasy consensus ranking is pick 14; he goes end of round 2 in Sleeper/ESPN and late round 1/early round 2 on CBS. Ideal draft spot is after selecting a proven WR like Jamar Chase, Puka Nua, or Jackson Smith-Njigba. Early-season struggles were due to garbage quarterback play with Jake Browning, not the player's talent.

It does give me confidence in drafting Chase Brown. So, the Ravens, the Bengals have the same exact points projection for this next year. For me, I would view Chase Brown and see what he did in the second half of the year once Joe Burrow actually did come back to the Bengals. And I think that is extremely telling of what we should expect this next season because early in the year, obviously, it was a disaster for Brown where he looked like he was going to be one of the biggest bust in the league, but that was just because they had garbage quarterback play with Jake Browning. And if we use the player comparison tool on flockfantasy.com and look at the eight games that Chase Brown played with Burrow, he averaged 19.4 fantasy points per game. In comparison to the games with no Burrow, he only averaged 14.1.
