After a slow start to camp, second-year wide receiver Marlon Brown has picked it up of late. "He’s made great strides," coach John Harbaugh said of Brown. "Marlon made some circus catches today and had a couple of catch-and-runs on crossing routes. You can use that big body." (Baltimore Sun)
Fantasy Impact
Brown surprised people last season with a Ravens rookie record 7 touchdowns. He's a big body at 6-foot-5 215, but benefited from the lack of red zone and wideout options in Baltimore last season. With Steve Smith in the fold, Dennis Pitta healthy, and Owen Daniels capable in the red zone, we wouldn't expect a statistical ascension in year two for Brown. Look at him in the WR4 range or a stash in dynasty leagues.
