"The NFL trade deadline is right around the corner, and the Patriots are among the several teams expected to be involved in making a deal or two, specifically to bring in new players. There was a good chance that wouldn't be the case, but since they have been playing well and are atop the AFC East, Mike Vrabel and Co. might be looking to improve the roster to remain competitive this season."
"For the last few weeks, there have been a lot of rumors surrounding the potential trade availability of Eagles' receiver AJ Brown. The Patriots have been connected to him since he was drafted, mostly because Bill Belichick infamously passed on him and others in favor of picking N'Keal Harry. His connection to Vrabel, who drafted him to the Titans when he was the head coach,"
The Patriots are actively pursuing a wide receiver trade before the NFL deadline to bolster rookie quarterback Drake Maye and sustain their AFC East lead. Insider Rickey Scoops reported that New England has been on the phone and aggressively seeking a receiver, noting he lacks official NFL accreditation but has a history of accurate early scoops. Potential targets linked to the Patriots include AJ Brown and Chris Olave. Vrabel’s prior connection to Brown from Tennessee and Belichick’s earlier decision regarding Brown factor into continued interest. The team evaluates multiple receiver options to improve offensive weapons as the season progresses.
