Chase Brown

PositiveBreakout0:00

Chase Brown is a high-upside target who averaged 21 PPR points per game with Joe Burrow last year. His market similarity scores align with elite seasons from 2014 DeMarco Murray (22 PPR PPG) and 2016 Le'Veon Bell (21.2 PPR PPG). Brown maintained a 14% target share with Burrow, making him a preferred asset over high-rush-share backs lacking passing game involvement. Conversely, Brown struggled during Jake Browning's tenure as starter, averaging only 9.7 PPR points per game despite a 78% rush share and 13% target share. The outlook is further bolstered by Joe Burrow entering his first season with a consistent offensive line year-over-year in his entire career.

0:00If you look at his first six games last
0:02year, he averaged just 9.7 PPR points
0:04per game, but he had a 78% running back
0:06rush share. He had a 13% target share.
0:08The peripherals were there. He just
0:09wasn't converting, and obviously Jake
0:11Browning was playing for those games.
0:13And then after that, from then on out,
0:1520.4 PPR points per game. He averaged 21
0:18PPR points per game with Joe Burrow last
0:21year. Um if you look at his market score
0:23comps, like I was talking about earlier,
0:25his two closest in similarity score are
0:272014 DeMarco Murray and then 2016
0:31Le'Veon Bell. They scored 22 and 21.2
0:34PPR points per game in that closest comp
0:37season. I think the the offensive line
0:39This is the first time I heard this from
0:40Brandon Thorn. He noted that this was
0:43the first year that Joe Burrow has the
0:45same offensive line year over year in
0:47his entire NFL career. And to me, all
0:49that does is scream Chase Brown being a
0:51great guy that that that you want in
0:53your squad. With Joe Burrow last year,
0:54he was like a 14% target share player.
0:56And and I'm going to lean into that kind
0:57of profile more than the guy who gets
1:00like an 80% running back rush share.
1:01Especially with the unchanging
1:02environment versus the guy who we don't
1:05know if he's going to even hit a 10%
1:06target share.
