2026 Draft note
Brown's metrics are elite. His ESPN scores–93rd-percentile OPEN, 88th-percentile CATCH, 85th-percentile YAC, 95th-percentile OVERALL–and his 92nd-percentile PFF route grade and 87th-percentile drop rate paint the picture of a complete, physical WR1 at the top of his game. He's finished WR12 per game in back-to-back seasons (14.1 and 12.1 points per game), missing a handful of games each year but producing at a high level when available. Landing in New England with Drake Maye–who posted 100th-percentile efficiency last season–the upside is enormous: a proven WR1 paired with perhaps the most efficient young quarterback in the league.
