Ronnie Brown

Miami Dolphins

RBBC

The 'Fins have their RBBC entering the final years of their respective contracts in '09.  Ricky Williams is 32, but because of his love of the sticky does not quite have 32-year old mileage.  Ronnie Brown is young at 27, but has not proven he can handle a full load at either the college or NFL level.  There have been no signs from the Dolphins front office of a desire to extend either back before their contracts are up.  Why would they?  Ricky Williams has probably 2-3 one-year contracts left in him, and Ronnie Brown is only one season removed from ACL surgery and will be forced to prove that he is worth a many million dollar investment.  This is the perfect scenario for fantasy owners to realize a return.

Truth in Numbers

Ronnie Brown bulls beware; he is not an every down running back... or at least not so far in his career.  You would think at 6'0" and 230 pounds that he could handle a full load.  He split carries throughout college with fellow pussy, Cadillac Williams, and has yet to crack the 300 touch mark in his four years in the league.  The numbers he put up in '08 are a bit misleading.  The 1,170 yards on 247 touches are serviceable.  The ten TDs are impressive, up until you realize that he scored seven of them in the first five games of the season when teams were still looking for their "Wildcat" playbooks that were buried in storage.  He did nothing in the 2008 fantasy playoffs against three weak defenses.  In fact, he has never registered a TD in his career in the month of December.  Do we play to make the playoffs, or play to win in the playoffs?  Guys who can't produce because they are tired in December are worse than useless.  They get you used to playing them all season, then drop a nice set of dog balls on your forehead when the season is on the line and leave you right between the hawk and the buzzard.  Torturous.

2009 Fantasy Outlook

For all of the venom we just spewed about this guy, we think he can produce solid returns on draft day 2009.  Contract years tend to have that effect.  All Ronnie needs to do is condition himself this off-season ("Ronnie Brown showed up to camp in the best shape of his career" rumors are rampant on fantasy newsbreaker sites all over cyberspace), hope not to get injured, and rack up about 1,400 total yards and he is looking at a 20 million dollar contract.  NFL GMs still don't get it.  This doesn't ensure that he will stay productive for 16 games, but if there was ever going to be a season he pulls it off, this is the one.  Make Brown the 32nd RB off of draft boards this summer, and you could be looking at top-10 RB returns.

Contract

Back in August of 2005, Ronnie Brown ended a three-week holdout by signing a five-year deal worth around $35 million.  This is the final year of that contract as Ronnie will become a free agent next season:


2009 - $3.6 million


2010 - Free Agent

Injury Report

Green

Brown is now a full year removed from his ACL surgery and real close to his pre-injury form. Considering he played in all 16 games last year, he looks to be a go for 2009.

Breaking News

Miami puts Ronnie Brown on injured reserve expand +

The Miami Dolphins have put running back Ronnie Brown (foot) on injured reserve, thus ending his 2009 NFL season.

Pyro's Take:

This is really too bad, as Ronnie was having a real nice season both in real life and in fantasy football. The injury is suspected to be a Lisfranc fracture in the midsection of his right foot, which could keep him out of action all the way through to 2010 training camp.
He can safely be dropped from all fantasy teams except those in dynasty leagues.

Ronnie Brown could miss rest of the season expand +

Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown (foot) will definitely miss Thursday night's game against the Panthers, but according to Profootballtalk.com, the team fears it could be a lot longer, and possibly the rest of the season.

Pyro's Take:

Brown still needs to see a specialist and have a rehab schedule set up, so these fears could be unfounded and all for nothing. We'll see what the doc's advice is and go from there. For now, keep Ronnie at the end of your fantasy football bench and hope for the best.

Ronnie Brown already ruled out for Thursday game expand +

Dolphins coach Tony Sparano confirmed on Tuesday that running back Ronnie Brown (foot) has been ruled out and will not play against the Panthers on Thursday.

Pyro's Take:

This news was expected. Ricky Williams becomes an extremely interesting fantasy football RB until Brown comes back, as he can confidently be started as an RB2 now in pretty much every league regardless of format.

Ronnie Brown sits out practice Monday expand +

Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown missed practice on Monday, and according to FOX Sports' Jay Glazer, the team is more concerned with the foot injury Brown suffered on Sunday than the ankle injury.

Pyro's Take:

Certain foot injuries can keep a player out for multiple weeks, so we'll have to keep you posted on the exact nature of the injury. Either way, Ronnie won't be playing on Thursday which makes Ricky Williams quite an interesting fantasy football player again.

Ronnie Brown likely out for Thursday game expand +

Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown left the game early on Sunday with an ankle sprain, and though the X-rays came back negative, he was seen leaving the locker room on crutches and is likely to miss the Thursday game against the Panthers.

Pyro's Take:

The team doctors still have the MRI results to look over, but it doesn't look good right now for the 'Fins leading RB. He's expected to miss a little bit of time, though his season is not believed to be in jeopardy. Keep him on your fantasy football bench until further notice.

Ronnie Brown shows his stuff while Ricky loses ground expand +

Miami Dolphins starting RB Ronnie Brown had himself a nice preseason game against Carolina Saturday night rushing the ball seven times for 31 yards while adding three receptions for 43 yards and a TD. Brown's backup, Ricky Williams, ran for 21 yards on just three carries and caught one ball for seven yards.

Pyro's Take:

Ronnie put up 74 yards of combined offense in just one quarter of action against the Carolina first-team defense. It looks as if the reports about Brown being back to form are true, which doesn't bode well for the 32-year old Ricky Williams this season. These two should still be handcuffed together on draft day, but it looks as if the Miami RBBC might be leaning a little more towards Brown's favor this season.
