They're not wrong either.

During the 2025 NFL regular season, A.J. Brown posted one of the elite drop metrics in the league, displaying exceptional reliability across his targets. Depending on how tracking services calculated specific pass catchability, his regular season drop metrics ranged between 0.8% and 3.6%: [1, 2, 3]

• PFF Metric: He dropped just 1 pass on 120 targets and 78 receptions, registering a 0.8% drop rateand ranking among the absolute best in the NFL. [1, 2, 3]
• Alternative Tracking: Other advanced analytics charts marked him with 3 drops on 127 targets, giving him a 3.6% drop rate, which still tracks significantly safer than the wide receiver league average (≈ 5.5% - 7.0%). [1, 2]
• Catch Rate Over Expectation: He finished the year +6.8% (6th among all NFL wide receivers), making highly difficult catches look routine.
