Ian Hardit selected Amon-Ra St. Brown at pick 108 as a foundational WR1 pick, emphasizing consistency and effectiveness. Hardit notes St. Brown is "locked in," "incredibly consistent with his scoring," and "incredibly effective." St. Brown had a career-high in targets last year and is described as "a machine." While St. Brown has never had a WR1 overall season, Hardit projects he could reach that tier this year. The pick keeps options open in round two while securing a high-floor wide receiver with both consistent scoring and spike-week upside. Hardit stacked St. Brown with Jared Goff, Amon Rice, and Sam LaPorta, indicating confidence in the Lions WR as a value play when paired with multiple Lions pass catchers. Hardit's starting wide receivers are Amon-Ra St. Brown and Amechi Eggbuka, and he projects St. Brown to finish as WR1 overall for the season, expressing strong enthusiasm: "I love that combination. I love that synergy."PositiveRoleJul 19, 2026
