STM Take

An elite high-volume receiver still in his prime.

The case for

  • Four straight Pro Bowls (2022-2025) plus three All-Pro selections at age 27; the back-end of his prime is just beginning.
  • Career 547 receptions through five seasons is one of the heaviest early-career volumes at the position.

The worry

  • 2025 second-team All-Pro is a step down from back-to-back first-team in 2023 and 2024; the production may have peaked.
  • Jameson Williams's STTM #6 finish in 2025 means Detroit's target share is no longer concentrated around him.

What to watch: Whether his 2026 stat line holds at AP-2 or above with Williams stealing more downfield share.

Full take and bio

St. Brown at STTM #5 tier 1 in 2025 closes a four-year stretch ranking tier 1 in three of the last three seasons. The 2023 and 2024 first-team All-Pros stand against a 2025 second-team All-Pro, a small step back but still elite-tier. The Detroit ecosystem (Goff at STTM #4 QB, Gibbs as RB1, Jameson Williams climbing) keeps the target share favorable.

St. Brown was born in Anaheim Hills to a German mother and bodybuilder father John Brown, holds dual American-German citizenship, and played three years at USC. Detroit took him 112th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. He has since made four straight Pro Bowls (2022-2025), earned first-team All-Pro in 2023 and 2024, and second-team All-Pro in 2025. Career line is 547 catches for 6,252 yards and 44 receiving TDs across five seasons.
