Rumors suggest the Patriots may be nearing a trade for AJ Brown, prompting AFC East rivals to hope the deal falls through. Dolphins fans are especially optimistic after reports that the Jaguars have inquired about Brown’s availability. The Jaguars may not strictly need Brown due to existing offensive talent, including Brian Thomas Jr., Travis Hunter, and Jakobi Meyers, though additional talent could still help a young quarterback. There is also speculation that the Jaguars could consider trading Thomas as part of a potential package. The Patriots remain viewed as the frontrunner, and Dolphins fans want Brown to land outside the division to prevent their immediate competition from improving.
"Even if the Dolphins aren't ready to compete for a title this year, you never want to see one of the best teams in your division get even better. There's still time before a deal gets struck, but everyone in Miami's building would love to see Brown get traded anywhere outside the AFC East. Seeing the Patriots strike out would also give Dolphin fans an extra reason to smile going into next season."
"Although the Jaguars don't necessarily need Brown, as they have former first-round pick Brian Thomas Jr., Travis Hunter, and Jakobi Meyers, surrounding your young quarterback with a plethora of talent is never a bad idea. On top of that, there has been chatter about their interest in trading Thomas, who could be a moving piece in this trade."
"The Patriots have remained the frontrunner for Brown, and a team like the Dolphins would hate to see that happen. They're not ready to compete for a championship the way the Patriots are. Still, they did trade Jaylen Waddle this offseason and revamped their offense, so seeing their immediate competition thrive is not at the top of their most wanted list, and their fans are making that very clear."
