PATRIOTS NEWS OFFICIAL: Patriots Finally Acquire AJ Brown

[mayoclinic]

This trade was about AJ Brown, Howie Roseman, and Mike Vrabel.

Brown whined his way out of town, Roseman was willing to accommodate because of bad chemistry and bad knees if he could fleece someone, and Vrabel drove the Pats' willingness to be fleeced.

I watched Curran and Perry talking about the trade. Perry thinks a 28 1st is a mistake and that the Pat's would be better off with the pick two years from now than AJB.

My rebuttal to that is it appears there is this perception that the Pats will improve above and beyond other teams by virtue of their first round picks, when in reality, in today's NFL virtually all teams improve through the draft every year. This hypothetical 2028 likely late round pick has been romanticized as "The" missing piece. Just hold tight until then Drake. 2028 will be the year we make a run.

It’s funny because the majority of the people who claim the team is still rebuilding believes that Doubs and Boutte are more than capable of being number 1s here. The overrating of Boutte after one decent season needs to be studied.

The window is open now. It’s never ideal to give up a 1 but it’s necessary here

It’s an overpay and a risk. But so what? There’s no guarantee Drake Maye will be the NEP QB in three years. One way to keep him here is to give him as many weapons as possible to help him to succeed. He didn’t have that last year. They need a WR now and there is no one on the roster who is guaranteed to develop this year. Brown gives defenses someone to worry about; there was no one to worry about last year except Maye.

The Pats had no choice.

NE failed to address WR in the draft.
