"It's another offseason, and the Patriots are connected to wide receiver AJ Brown for the one-millionth time, and that has only heightened since Mike Vrabel became the head coach. Because r umors continue to circulate about Brown's possible trade, fans are getting worked up over the idea of him finally becoming a Patriot, but they're not exactly on board with most of the trade proposals that could get it done."
"Moton believes the Patriots could get a deal done for Brown by sending a 2026 third-round pick and CB Carlton Davis III, a much lighter deal than anyone has projected over the last two years. And although that's certainly beneficial for the Patriots, fans are not entertaining the idea. The mock trade was posted on Twitter for Patriots fans to consider, and the overwhelming negative response"
AJ Brown remains frequently linked to the Patriots amid ongoing trade rumors, and interest intensified after Mike Vrabel became head coach. Bleacher Report's Moe Moton named New England a top landing spot and proposed a trade sending CB Carlton Davis III plus a 2026 third-round pick in exchange for Brown. The proposed package is lighter than prior projections, but Patriots fans reacted negatively, mainly because the deal would cost a starting cornerback. The reaction reflects the defense's strong late-season performance despite inconsistent production from Davis during 2025, and acknowledges Davis's prior standing as a top free-agent corner.
