Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Jaron Brown is having himself quite the training camp and preseason. After making a pair of really nice plays in limited work in Friday’s 19-3 loss to the San Diego Chargers, Brown is now the subject of the latest Bruce Arians hyperbole.

“He’s the best wide receiver we have right now,” Arians told reporters after the game, according to ESPN’s Josh Weinfuss. “Most consistent practice, then shows up in games.”

Yes, Brown has been very good. He was underrated by many entering this year’s training camp, and even I was in that group, leaving him off my initial 53-man roster prediction.

But is he really the best the Cardinals have right now, when that receiving corps includes Larry Fitzgerald, John Brown and Michael Floyd?

Maybe.

Let’s dig into those Arians words. He said “right now.” So we can technically take John Brown and Larry Fitzgerald out of the picture because Brown is still out with a concussion and Fitz missed the game with a knee injury.

So basically Arians is saying Brown is better than Michael Floyd now. That’s a more reasonable thing to say. And perhaps it is a little foreshadowing. With both Floyd and Brown under contract only through the 2016 season, if the Cardinals are looking to bring someone back, Brown could easily replace Floyd’s production for a lot less money.

Brown has been a preseason monster for four years now. But he has certainly gotten better. Will he force himself into more than just a fourth or fifth receiver this season?
