Amon-Ra St. Brown 2022 Outlook
St. Brown exploded down the stretch as a rookie, generating 90-plus receiving yards in each of the final four games. The difference between his start and finish was stark. St. Brown had just 39 catches for 352 scoreless yards on 4.7 targets per game during his first 11 games. But he had no fewer than 10 targets, eight catches for 73 yards in each of his final six games. As ESPN.com notes, he scored five TDs and was fantasy's No. 2 WR during the span. St. Brown finished the year with 90 receptions and 912 yards (10.1 average per catch), both Lions rookie records. His receptions ranked second among all rookies and his yardage was the fifth most. St. Brown is a tough route runner who can bowl over defenders after the catch, but he's not satisfied with the status quo. St. Brown said his focus this offseason has been mostly on the mental aspect of the game. "One of the areas definitely is just understanding defenses," St. Brown recently said when asked what aspects of his game he wanted to improve this offseason. "I just want to be able to recognize defenses quicker and be able to know what I'm doing before it even happens. ..." There will be more competition for targets with newcomers Jameson Williams and D.J. Chark Jr. joining holdovers D'Andre Swift and T.J. Hockenson. But investors shouldn't shy away from St. Brown as their WR2.
Amon-Ra St. Brown 2021 Outlook
St. Brown fell all the way to Day 3 of the NFL draft, waiting until the fourth round to hear his name called. When the Lions plucked the slot receiver from USC, it provided St. Brown the chance to make an impact immediately. As NFL.com notes, the Lions' revamped receiving corps doesn't currently include an alpha. Tyrell Williams is the most accomplished wideout, with one 1,000-yard season early in his career, but didn't play at all in 2020; Breshad Perriman is a former first-round pick who's never been consistent; Quintez Cephus had a solid rookie campaign but profiles as a depth player; and Kalif Raymond has never been a full-time receiver. In other words, the door is open for St. Brown to generate a massive target share as a rookie. St. Brown profiles as an inside receiver with Perriman and Williams on the outside, but has been lining up both outside and in the slot during early team workouts. Given the dearth of options in Detroit, St. Brown could become Jared Goff's new Cooper Kupp -- a trusty playmaker who can get open quickly from the slot and be an outlet -- if he picks up the offense with ease. With Detroit unlikely to be nursing many leads, Goff should be throwing often, especially late in games.
