BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~175 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~215
ANALYSIS: With Matt Breida now in Buffalo, Malcolm Brown was brought in back in March to fill the void, signing a one-year, $1.75 million contract. The veteran spent his entire career with the Rams and is heading to South Beach fresh off his best year to date, finishing 2020 with 419 yards and five touchdowns off 101 attempts. He also added 23 catches for 162 yards. While he was far from an every-week fantasy option, there were some solid performances throughout the year.
Brown began last season with a bang, racking up 79 yards and two touchdowns off 18 touches during the Week 1 meeting against the Dallas Cowboys. He was virtually irrelevant from a fantasy standpoint afterward until he had another multi-score outing against the Seattle Seahawks in mid-November.
While Brown is listed behind Myles Gaskin on the depth chart, he shouldn't be classified solely as an insurance policy, especially since he may get touches right off the bat. Should Gaskin go down again with an injury this season, which is certainly possible, Brown's name will undoubtedly pop up in waiver wire columns. Managers can beat everyone to the punch and target him toward the later rounds during fantasy drafts. In leagues where rosters have already been established, grab him as a bench stash and roster depth if he is still available.
