John Brown might be a sell

This came over my twitter feed this morning...

Blurb is quoting Arians on John Brown, stating with his recent injury combined with sickle (recovery from injury slower with sickle) that if he can't run he has no choice but to replace him..

[thebeast]

Brown's stock has been declining for a while now so I don't know that you can sell him for anything much of value. My take away from that article is that JJ Nelson is a buy opportunity.

And Jaron Brown

I expect the Cards will be watching the waiver wire closely over the next month.

Sad news for Brown but I agree with the above sentiment that Browns value has declined sharply from last offseason

Why do people still like JJ Nelson better than Jaron Brown? I thought the latest news about Jaron being the WR2 would decrease the JJ hype, but I guess not.

It has decreased JJ's hype...which is why he is a good buy low candidate now. He is a Jaron Brown injury or a few bad games away from being the #2 guy there (if John Brown doesnt get it together that is)

ive always liked nelson myself. does anyone know if they are still carrying dobson? i would also think that this increase's williams value significantly....if you want him, now's the time to pounce, because once the season gets rolling....williams will be at a premium is my guess. (see golloday)

Buying Brown. Gonna try to zag while everyone's zigging...

I do think Arians isn't one for coachspeak but he's probably just frustrated with the whole situation. Terrible injury luck for a team that was a Super Bowl contender entering last season and then just to see guys get injured and the team lose some really bad games.

likely that everyone is overvaluing brown's new job imo.....id be trying to stay away rather than buy in to brown. he's simply overpriced. he went from nothing to something (if you will)

I read it as he was buying John Brown, looks like you read it as Jaron.
Nelson was pretty effective when John Brown was out last year, and he has a very specific role in Arians offense that no one else on the team has the speed to fill. He's a great buy right now if you can still get him for less than a 2nd.

I traded Woodhead for John Brown a few weeks back and felt great about it...id kill to have that one back

[Tsunami]

I will be looking to buy when his value bottoms out. I don't think it has yet, until he starts missing actual games. I might sell now if I got a fair offer but that's not likely right now.

I've been high on Jaron Brown for a long time now, but especially since Michael Floyd was cut. I got him for free in most of my leagues. I recommend you all snag him quickly.

Two things
1. Why would you want him once he starts missing games? That's the reason he has so little value. He's just a roster clogger if he can't play.

2. What would a fair price be for him now? I'm not paying anything for him. He had a nice 2015 but I have my suspicions that his dynasty value was highly inflated due to his perceived opportunity as the heir apparent to an aging Fitz on a (formerly) high octane offense. Now he's a chronic injury case and because his problem is congenital he won't ever get better. What would be fair for a guy that won't play?

Sadly, this is what I'm starting to think about John Boy. They've had a full year to diagnose, and try to improve his Sickle Cell complications through diet, stretching and exercise regimen, etc... Yet here we are again with a nagging soft tissue injury that won't heal quickly (possibly completely) because his blood cells don't oxygenate properly.

It's not just an issue of "when" quad will get better so he can return to play. But how long before he's out again. And again. I don't want any part of him because he'd spend the majority of the time on my bench injured. He's got virtually no trade value. Rough break for a talented young man, but he's damaged goods.

Sigh...Traded Joe Williams away for him a couple weeks ago. Don't think owners can do anything but hold at the moment and hope that they can figure something out. I will be actively looking to shop him should he do anything on the field this year. I don't want any part of him anymore.
