Ranked higher than Derrick Henry; was a successful pick last season and expected to benefit from a robust Bengals offense. Viable second-round option despite team overlap with Jamar Chase.PositiveValueAug 6, 2026
Chase Brown's ADP is around 25, making him available in the third round; analysts are comfortable targeting him in round two, viewing the draft capital as justified.PositiveProjectionAug 6, 2026
After averaging 21.2 fantasy points per game from week 8 through season end (RB3 pace), Brown is projected to regress slightly to RB8–RB10 range for the full season. With Joe Burrow on field, he averaged 19.4 fantasy points per game (RB6 range); without Burrow, 14.1 fantasy points per game (RB14 range). The gap is driven by touchdown variance (9 with Burrow, 2 without), but volume-based rushing efficiency should remain stable. Back-to-back seasons of 11 touchdowns support top-10 back floor even if Bengals defense improves.PositiveProjectionAug 6, 2026
Ranked RB8 for 2025 after strong late-season performance in 2024. From week 8 onward, Brown posted consecutive finishes of RB5, RB6, RB12, RB13, RB10, RB6, RB13, RB1, RB3, and RB7 with no game under 15 fantasy points or lower than RB13. Averaged 21.2 fantasy points per game weeks 8-17 (RB3 pace). Improvement driven by Bengals defense becoming respectable after offseason spending, reducing shootout game script dependency. Even with modest regression from RB3 pace, projects as RB8-RB10 with requisite passing game usage and average rushing efficiency.PositiveProjectionAug 6, 2026
