AJ Brown on the Eagles round two pick round three pick. Let's find out what Jacob Gibbs

0:09.2

thinks right now on fantasy football today in five.

0:11.7

Welcome everybody. Jacob is a sports line dot com writer gets into the data data analyst

0:17.6

loves the advanced stats and he loves I know he loves AJ Brown. I don't even know where

0:20.6

he's going with this. I just know he loves AJ Brown has for a long time. AJ Brown went

0:24.9

down from 76.8 yards per game in 2020 to 76.8 yards per game in 2021. Definitely some

0:31.9

injuries factoring in there. But he lost a full 10 yards per game. Where are you right

0:35.6

1:18.1

receiver was targeted at his high volume as AJ Brown was when they were on the field.

1:24.2

So when on the field in 2021, AJ Brown took 40% of Tennessee's targets. The next highest

1:30.3

was the Vanta Adams 3035% Vanta Adams 34% Cooper Cup 40% AJ Brown.

1:38.2

Air yards he saw 50% of Tennessee's area on the field. The next highest was Jess and

1:43.1

Jefferson 46 Terry McLean 46. This is just a fun little tidbit Elijah Moore 44% was
