Ellis Johnson
True North Fantasy Football
I think you can make an argument that Brown is the most physically dominant WR in the game. After teaming up with his best friend Jalen Hurts, Brown did not disappoint. Finishing 2022 with nearly 1500 yards and 146 targets, it's clear he is the main weapon on this offense. Last year he had 50% of Hurts' passing touchdowns with 11. Although you could view this as a negative, I think it showcases his upside, especially considering this team was automatically running the ball in the Red Zone.2022 was a weird season for Waddle. After starting the year as one of the best options in fantasy alongside his teammate Tyreek Hill, injuries to both Waddle and Tua Tagovailoa hindered his production. For fantasy, this was frustrating as he either gave you less than 10 fantasy points or more than 20 with few in between. He is clearly one of the best young WRs in this league, but weighing in Tua's health concerns moves him behind Tee Higgins. for me
Justin Herrera
TSS Fantasy
Last year Jalen Hurts reached his potential with the addition of his good friend AJ Brown. Brown had his best year in the NFL and Devonta Smith was unlocked as well. Look for Brown's continued success as the team's big play downfield threat. As the Eagles haven't changed much on the offense and more importantly are bringing back four of their five dominant offensive lineman. 
Andrew Erickson
FantasyPros
Being high on A.J. Brown was a big hit for me in 2022, as the Eagles' WR1 finished as the WR4. I acknowledged his uber-talent from his days in Tennessee, combined with an offense that would be willing to throw more than his old team would unlock his fantasy football ceiling. He did just that, finishing 8th in points per game (15.0) with a 29% target share. He posted the NFL's 6th-highest air yards share (39%) despite running fewer routes than his teammate DeVonta Smith. AJB tied a bow on his first year in Philadelphia second overall in yards per route run (2.89) behind only Tyreek Hill and 6th in yards after the catch per reception. The 26-year-old remains in his uber-prime and needs to be valued as such. 
Brandon Funston
The Athletic
NFL's premier power forward WR delivered career bests in catches (88), recYds (1496) and TDs (11) in 1st season in PhillyThanks to major increase in YPC (from 9.8 to 18.1), bested his rookie half-PPR numbers despite 29 fewer catches with Tyreek Hill in mix
Derek Brown
FantasyPros
A.J. Brown was everything the Eagles could have hoped for after making the trade in the offseason. Brown finished as the WR8 in fantasy with career highs across the board. The concerns about Jalen Hurts supporting an elite wide receiver in fantasy quickly dissipated as Hurts emerged as a possible MVP candidate. Brown was eighth in raw target volume (146), seventh in deep targets, and 12th in red zone looks. Brown is entering his prime (age 26 season) with an ascending elite quarterback in one of the best offenses in football. Brown is a locked-in WR1 in 2023.Jaylen Waddle enjoyed an explosive sophomore season as the underneath complement to Tyreek Hill in the Dolphins' high-flying aerial attack. Waddle was the WR12 in fantasy, ranking tenth in YAC, seventh in receiving yards, and 11th in total touchdowns. Waddle was also fourth in yards per route run and third in fantasy points per target. He's an ascending alpha wide receiver who could easily lead the Dolphins in receiving in 2023 if Tyreek Hill shows any signs of slowing down. Invest in second and third-year wide receivers always. This is the way.
Derek Lofland
FantasyPros
Brown was stellar in his first season with the Eagles, tallying 84 receptions for 1,401 yards, and 11 TDs. Jalen Hurts and Brown had great chemistry in 2022 and there is no reason to expect 2023 to be any different. Brown is a very solid WR1.Waddle had to compete with Tyreek Hill for targets, and still finished with 70 receptions for 1,312 yards, and 8 TDs. Waddle is one of the best deep threats in the NFL and he should have low-end WR1 value, as long as Tua Tagovailoa can stay healthy in 2023.
