Fantasy Tiers

Amon-Ra St. Brown: Tier 1 (Elite) WR (ranked #4 at the position). Tyreek Hill: Tier 3 (Flex/Starter) WR (ranked #20 at the position). Among the top 50 wide receivers this season, Amon-Ra St. Brown is producing at 71% of elite pace and Tyreek Hill at 49%. That ranking gap means Amon-Ra St. Brown carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Amon-Ra St. Brown vs Tyreek Hill: The Full Breakdown

Deciding between Amon-Ra St. Brown and Tyreek Hill is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Detroit Lions wide receiver put up 15.6 PPG in 2025 over 17 games; Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins averaged 10.8 in 4. A 4.8-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 4.8 points favors Amon-Ra St. Brown, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one wide receiver to the other.

Target volume is the story here. Amon-Ra St. Brown saw 172 targets in 2025, while Tyreek Hill drew 29. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Amon-Ra St. Brown, even in weeks where Tyreek Hill posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.

Both share a Week 6 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking wide receivers this deep on your bench, plan your replacement wide receiver early.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Amon-Ra St. Brown is a buy in trades where the other manager is chasing upside at a different position. Tyreek Hill is a hold unless you can flip him for a positional upgrade elsewhere on your roster. Dynasty outlook: Amon-Ra St. Brown (age 26) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Tyreek Hill (age 32) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining.
