ARI WR Jaron Brown - 2017 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

According to the team's official web site, Jaron Brown—and his ability to return from the left ACL tear suffered in October last season—is one of the more intriguing players on the roster. He has developed into a reliable receiver and a very good player on special teams. But at a currently crowded position, he needs to make sure his ACL issues are behind him.

Fantasy Downside

He’s still on a pitch count of sorts. The Cardinals use a metric system that measures players’ practice workload, and once Brown hits his 300 “load” (a measurement that varies from player to player) he is shut down. Brown will eventually have his workload increased, according to head coach Bruce Arians.

2017 Bottom Line

The good news is he's already lost the knee brace he was wearing to protect the surgically-repaired knee, and with John Brown slowed by injury and J.J. Nelson coming up small in camp, Jaron Brown is gaining some momentum in the battle for a role behind Larry Fitzgerald and John Brown. That won't make him draft worthy, but he could emerge as a possible waiver-wire candidate if the momentum carries over into September.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
As ArizonaSports.com noted, every year about this time you can see Jaron Brown on the University of Phoenix Stadium field making big catches for the offense, and generally what follows is a story about how the former undrafted rookie free agent out of Clemson is poised for big things. And he may well be. At some point. Indeed, his 44 catches for 513 yards and four touchdowns spread over three years are indicative of his spot in the Cardinals' pecking order at wideout.

Fantasy Downside
Despite his athleticism, dependability and versatility to play any and all of the team’s wide receiver positions, Brown has virtually been stuck as the Cardinals’ fifth or sixth receiver and a special-teams ace.

2016 Bottom Line
Unless circumstance or injury lead to a move up the depth chart and Brown moves at least into the top four, he's not going to be a viable fantasy football option. Set expectations accordingly.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - Week 18, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Wildcard Weekend – Jaron Brown vs. Carolina
Jaron Brown didn’t catch a pass last week, but he’s had the occasional nice game this season out of nowhere. It’s hard to bank on that though as a fantasy owner, especially considering the fact that he’s at least fourth on the receiving depth chart with a third string quarterback going up against a surging defense that finished 11th in the league this year against the pass. Leave him be.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - Week 17, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 – Jaron Brown vs. San Francisco
Jaron Brown had one catch for six yards against Seattle last week and he wound up being targeted twice on the day. He seems to be a better option than Ted Ginn, but that still puts him fourth on the Cardinals depth chart, which doesn’t bode well for his fantasy potential. He should remain on waivers in all fantasy leagues.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - Week 16, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 – Jaron Brown vs. Seattle
Jaron Brown didn’t catch a pass last week against the Rams. He’s had some good games occasionally this season, but there’s no reason to expect it this week. Against the top ranked pass defense, with a third string quarterback off the street behind center, I would stay away from Brown and the rest of the Cardinal pass catchers.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - Week 15, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 – Jaron Brown vs. St. Louis
Jaron Brown had only two catches last week against the Chiefs, but he had 48 yards that included a 26 yard touchdown pass late in the third quarter that ended up being the game winner for a team desperately in need of a win to stay on top in the NFC West. Brown has been getting some more action as of late, but it’s unlikely that he’ll put up consistent enough totals being fourth on the depth chart to warrant adding to your fantasy roster.

ARI WR Jaron Brown - Week 14, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 – Jaron Brown vs. Kansas City
Jaron Brown had the best day of any Cardinals offensive player last week against the Falcons, catching seven of nine passes thrown his way for 75 yards. While he may get added looks should Larry Fitzgerald miss another game, it’s too risky to assume that’ll be the case. Fitzgerald should be back, Jaron Brown is still the WR3 at best even without him in the lineup, and the Cardinals face a top shelf Chiefs pass defense. Leave him on waivers.
