John Brown Week 7 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Mon, Oct 14th 2019, 8:39pm EDT

It's always going to be difficult to rely on a Josh Allen wide receiver consistently, but knowing Brown has seen at least five targets in every game, including eight or more in 3-of-5 games, it's a bit easier. Both he and Beasley have a 22 percent target share but the difference is that Brown has seen 34 percent of the team's air yards, while Beasley has seen just 19 percent. The Dolphins were without their top cornerback Xavien Howard last week, though he hasn't been good to begin with. On the year, he's allowed 162 yards and two touchdowns on 18 targets in coverage. His replacement was Ken Webster, who proceeded to allow two catches for 38 yards and a touchdown on just three targets in coverage. There's just one team who's seen fewer targets in coverage than this Dolphins secondary, and that's because they've been unnecessary, as the targets have netted a robust 2.30 PPR points per target. Just five wide receivers have finished as top-30 options against them, so it's been very top heavy, and Brown would likely be the one to benefit considering his share of air yards. He's not a lock for production given the blowout nature of this game, but not many WR3s are, and that's where Brown slots in this week.
