I didn't read it and think that the OP thinks Brown can't. I think he just meant it as conversation.
But yeah, I think the answer is pretty obvious. The real question is how many targets will Brown get now? His production likely will drop if Diggs is getting the targets that he got last year. Or, we might have two 1,000 yard receivers, which would be crazy. Have we ever had that?
If Josh takes the right steps the production shouldn't change all that much. Diggs and Brown at ~1000 yds, Beasley not far behind at 600-800, Knox above 500, and more production through Davis/Hodgins/Rbs etc. making up another 500 or more yards. Both the offense and Josh would have to be taking steps forward though.
