BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~60 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~75
ANALYSIS: It didn’t take long for Marquise Brown to acclimate to the NFL. In the Week 1 throttling of the Dolphins, the speedster smoked the Miami secondary all day, notching four receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns. Due to the Ravens being a run-first team, Brown never put up those numbers again during the season, but his potential remains. In 14 games last season, he grabbed 46 receptions, 71/440 targets (16.1%), 584 yards, 12.7 yards per catch, and seven touchdowns.
With one year of NFL experience under his belt and a stronger rapport with QB Lamar Jackson, all the pieces are in place for Brown to have a stellar campaign. In fact, he should be the no. 1 WR for Jackson if not the no. 1 offensive player as a whole--only TE Mark Andrews will dispute that. The competition Brown will face at the wide receiver position in Baltimore will be middling at best: Willie Snead IV, Miles Boykin, Devin Duvernay, and Chris Moore. In fact, PFF has Brown projected to 99 targets for a 20.3% share of all targets in the Ravens offense.
Don't be surprised if Brown finishes 2020 with something close to a 70/900/6 line and 200+ PPR points. Consider Brown a WR2 in redraft with massive upside. He can stretch the field, is the clear-cut WR1, and brings plenty of potential with his skills and large role on this receiving corp. His emergence is contingent on Baltimore passing the ball more, but Brown is a sneaky candidate to have big weeks if he gets the right opportunities against weak defenses.
