Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

The Commanders' one-year, $3.3M commitment to Noah Brown represents a slight overpay for what amounts to a depth signing, earning a D+ CVI that reflects questionable value even at the lower end of the receiver market. While $3.3M AAV sits in replacement-level territory for NFL wideouts, Brown's unproven production profile makes even this modest investment hard to justify when the position is flooded with more accomplished veterans available for similar money. The 28-year-old journeyman has bounced between practice squads and limited roles throughout his six-year career, never establishing himself as a reliable contributor despite opportunities with multiple organizations. Washington's decision to guarantee $2.5M of the deal adds unnecessary risk for a player who profiles more as a camp body than a legitimate roster lock, especially given the Commanders' need to maximize every dollar as they rebuild their offensive infrastructure. This signing feels like the type of marginal move that teams make when they're grasping for depth rather than following a coherent roster-building strategy, and the D+ CVI reflects Brown's limited upside relative to his cost in an increasingly competitive receiver landscape.

Performance Analysis

Noah Brown grades as a rotational player among NFL wide receivers — a below-average player at the position. His strongest area is yards per reception at 16.6 (well above the NFL average of 12.7), ranking as well above average for the position. Receiving yards per game, at 20.8 compared to an NFL average of 50.0, is where he falls short relative to the position. His high yards per catch but low volume suggests a deep-threat role with limited target share.
