The “My Guys” Episode! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 8/20

I'm going to Hollywood. Hollywood, Markey's Hollywood Brown, is my third and final my guy for 2020. Here is a player that I loved when I scouted Baker Mayfield a couple years ago, and I was like, who is this little itty-bitty guy?

destroying everybody. And I didn't know who Marquis Brown was at that time. I didn't know if he was actually an NFL talent. Fast forward two years. And unfortunately, he is injured. He can't go to the combine. He is undersized. Oh, he's the first wide receiver drafted in the NFL draft because he is actually really, really good.

We see him come out as, you know, first game as an NFL wide receiver and put up 147 yards and two touchdowns. The Dolphins game? Yeah, and he did that on 18% of snap. So you kind of see the big play upside. But he obviously got injured, an ankle injury through the season. I believe that was in week five, missed a couple of games, came back and then wasn't really utilized the same. They kept his snap percentages lower. Obviously in the playoffs.

when it mattered, and they're like, they were actually down for once. I mean, you saw seven receptions, 126 yards. He was great. Now, I've talked about him a lot, so I'm not going to, you know, keep droning on, but I do want to give a shout out to Curtis Patrick. Great follow on Twitter because I was tagged about a million times in an article that he wrote.

Talking up Markey's Hollywood Brown. It's a very persuasive article. It is. It has some great research. And here was his findings, because I've given all my research in the past. First round rookie wide receivers, he checks that box, who had five targets per game in their rookie year, checks that box, and had a positive fantasy points over expectation per attempt. He checks that box. Those that do those three things, 90% score over 200 fantasy points.

per game, and they average 237 and a half fantasy points per game in their sophomore season. That would be the wide receiver 10, the wide receiver 15, the wide receiver 12 over the past three seasons. And the only guys who had as much efficiency as Hollywood Brown did were Calvin Ridley, O'Dell Beckham Jr., Julio Jones, and Mike Evans. He was drafted to be a star. He's tied to a great offense, a great quarterback.

He also... But Jason. Yes, voice of public opinion. What if they signed Des Bryant? Oh, please sign Des Bryant. Because maybe that means they won't sign Antonio Brown. Antonio Brown would have me a little bit more worried, who is ironically the cousin of Hollywood Brown.

They train together, which is, hey, if you're going to learn from someone, maybe learn some route tips from your cousin Antonio Brown. Just make sure you're only learning route tips on Antonio Brown. Let's keep it to football. Only the football aspects. But my point is this. He was drafted to be great. He's tied to a great offense. He's undervalued. He's in the sixth round. And I don't think he's going to be a super consistent player. He's not a guy that I want as my wide receiver won. But in the sixth round, you're putting a guy in your flex that can just win you a week.

I think he has a major breakout season this year. He's a lock for a wide receiver two to me. I think his upside is a wide receiver one. Hollywood. Hollywood. Up to no good. All right.
