In theory, 27-year-old Bucannon brings versatility to a defense. In reality, he will probably begin as a healthy scratch and is unlikely to make it more than a few weeks in the Big Apple.

There’s a variety of ways to put points on the board these days, and having a guy like Brown as the number one is more than good enough. With that said, the most important element in a modern offense is having more than one guy who can step up. Moving forward it’s going to be crucial for guys behind Brown and Beasley to make plays. I agree- I would rather have 3 WR that are in the second tier than a top WR and a bunch of scrubs. I right now can not think of a top WR who is dominant right now and the reason his team is winning- (possibly Michael Thomas) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 He is producing like one for sure. The Bills still need more punch at the WR position but they should feel good about Brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessTruster Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 John Brown is a beast. My son and his college roommates were big Cards followers during the Carson Palmer greatest show on earth years (brown, boldin, Fitz ) and turned me on to him. He was injured a bit, but when healthy was the only guy I ever saw who could chase down Palmers long ball. We will see, but hopefully he will still be fast when Josh's brain catches up to his longball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 He leads the team in catches and yards and is on pace for 80 grabs and 1200 yards. He is definitely our number one receiver, but maybe not in the traditional sense a dominant #1 is often thought of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsaikotic Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 during the game Lofton (I think) said Brown needed 3 more yards for some record or something but i couldnt hear it cuz someone in my house was yelling....what did he need 3 more yards for?

I just also threw in that often when ppl think number 1, they want a Julio Jones or Amari Cooper dominating player. He isn’t this threat, but is definitely our number one by far.

When Allen is in his 6th season maybe he can execute an offense efficiently with just one superstar WR and a dynamic RB like Alvin Kamara. And I know you don't follow the rest of the league very closely(see your scoffing at Jason Peters being a HOF candidate) but while John Brown is nice.......on par with Michael Thomas he is most certainly not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 It always depends on how you use the phrase. Some people by a #1 mean what is often called "a true #1," generally a top 5 to 10 guy who consistently draws double teams and is obviously among the best in the league. Brown isn't one of those guys. But if you mean a guy who's the best WR on his team and is in the top 32 WRs in the league, he's absolutely doing that. He was an excellent pickup and seems to be among the top 20 or so in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a single receiver in the league is getting 12 targets a game, and only four are getting 10 or over. https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/reports/targets/wr.php On a team that is 18th in the league in pass attempts, they're throwing to Brown a lot. We're one of the run-heavier teams in the league (10th highest run:pass percentage) and that will only help Allen.

He was talking about Brown needing a big fast complimentary WR opposite him on the offense. I was pointing out Thomas....the OPs comparison....didn’t have one. ill buy you a ticket to Peters’s induction ceremony. Until then, you can watch him flailing away at the Bills front 7 on Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
