Barion Brown Is Emerging as a Late-Round Sleeper
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Barion Brown has gone from interesting camp name to somebody worth considering late in deeper drafts. The sixth-round rookie kept making plays through the first two weeks of camp, then caught four passes for 53 yards in the preseason opener. Jordyn Tyson's hamstring injury opens the door a little wider, too, with the first-round pick expected to miss up to two months. Brown still has to earn those snaps. Devaughn Vele is ahead of him, and Bryce Lance, Kevin Austin Jr. and the rest of the room aren't just going away. But Brown has one thing nobody has to project: speed. He ran a 4.30 at the combine and has already shown New Orleans can use it beyond the return game. There isn't enough here to call him a standard-league target yet. In deeper formats, though, Brown has played his way into the late-round sleeper mix, and Tyson's absence gives him a real shot to matter early.
