FANTASY FOOTBALL ROOKIES TO TARGET IN 2019

NUMBER 15 – A.J. BROWN, WIDE RECEIVER (TITANS)

Kicking off the list is Titans second round pick A.J. Brown, who was drafted out of Ole Miss. Brown totaled 85 receptions for 1,320 yards and six touchdowns as a junior for the Rebels and the season prior hauled in 75 catches for 1,252 yards and a whopping 11 touchdowns.

In other words, Brown is hopefully going to be an impact player for the Titans, who desperately need a WR1. Corey Davis hasn’t performed to the level that a fifth overall pick should and with Marcus Mariota entering the final year of his deal (and the Titans trading for Ryan Tannehill), this is a big year for Tennessee.

Brown joins Davis and free agent signee Adam Humphries on the wide receiver depth chart as well as tight end Delanie Walker. While Brown isn’t worth drafting until the final few rounds and will likely be available as a free agent after your draft concludes, he could end up being a nice surprise for your team.

It all depends on how the quarterback does in Nashville that will determine whether Brown is a worthy fantasy football option or not. That’s today’s NFL for you.
