A.J. Brown Solidifies Elite WR Status in Philly's Offense
27 Aug
Summary
- A.J. Brown has averaged 87 receptions, 1,344 yards, and 8 TDs over past 3 seasons
- Brown is projected as a top-10 WR and top-15 overall player in 2025 fantasy drafts
- Brown's elite talent and defined role in the Eagles' offense make him a safe WR1 option
In the past three seasons, A.J. Brown has firmly established himself as one of the elite wide receivers in the NFL. Despite historically playing in run-heavy offenses with the Tennessee Titans and Philadelphia Eagles, Brown has consistently produced at a high level, averaging 87 receptions for 1,344 yards and 8 touchdowns.
This impressive performance has earned Brown top-10 fantasy finishes as the WR6, WR5, and WR20 over the past three years. As a result, he is once again being projected as a top-10 wide receiver and the 15th overall player in 2025 fantasy drafts, likely meaning he will be selected near the second round.
Brown's combination of elite talent and his defined role in the Eagles' offense make him a safe WR1 option this year. While Philadelphia will always be a run-first team with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley, Brown has proven to be a focal point of the offense and a major target generator. He may not receive the same usage as some other top receivers, but his weekly ceiling as the overall WR1 and consistent floor in the WR2 ranks make him a valuable asset for fantasy managers.
