Chase Brown

PositiveBreakout0:00

The source identifies Chase Brown as a must-draft player in the mid-to-late second round, citing his high-end ceiling and secure role. He is currently the RB10 by composite ADP, but the source notes he performed as the RB5 in games where Joe Burrow was healthy last season. With an improved offensive line, a 'featured' role confirmed by Burrow, and projected volume of 20 touches per week including red zone and receiving work, the source argues he possesses a round-one profile. Samaje Perine is viewed as a 31-year-old veteran who does not impede Brown's path, and Taj Brooks is dismissed as a non-factor with only 17 career touches.

0:00The upside is absolutely insane for
0:01Chase Brown this season. We'll start off
0:03with talking about what I think is the
0:04best round two pick if J'Ontre does not
0:07fall into round two. So, if J'Ontre does
0:09go at the tail end of round one or at
0:11like the one-two turn, I think the best
0:13pick you can make in round two is Chase
0:15Brown. Currently the running back 10 by
0:17composite ADP. Last season he was
0:19running back five in games that Joe
0:22Burrow started and finished. That was
0:24behind a much worse offensive line for
0:25the Bengals last than they will have
0:27this season. The offensive line is
0:29fixed. It's not like top 10, but it's
0:31league average and that's really all
0:32we've been asking for. The other
0:34exciting part about Chase Brown is just
0:36the certainty.
0:38We want not only for these guys in
0:40rounds one, two, three to have this
0:42high-end ceiling, but we want to know
0:44with a very high level of certainty that
0:46the role is secure. Behind Chase Brown,
0:49it's a 31-year-old Samaje Perine and Taj
0:52Brooks who has 17 career touches and is
0:54not good. Joe Burrow even came out and
0:56said recently Chase Brown is a featured
0:58running back. So, we've got a featured
1:01running back on a team that very well
1:03could lead the league in touchdowns per
1:05game who showed us last season that he
1:08was a top-five running back when Joe
1:10Burrow was healthy and he's capable of
1:12having that role.
1:13And he's there in like the mid to late
1:16second round. Chase Brown has a round
1:18one profile, so he's a mas- must draft
1:20player anytime he makes it into round
1:22two. Truly the only knock that people
1:24have is that he's inefficient, which I
1:26understand, but that's why he doesn't go
1:28as a top three pick. But volume is king
1:31in fantasy and especially volume on
1:34elite offenses. He's getting 20 touches
1:36every week with red zone usage,
1:38receiving usage, and he's averaging 4.6,
1:404.7 on the ground. The upside is
1:42absolutely insane for Chase Brown this
1:44season.
