The Broncos' acquisition of Waddle for a first-round pick raises the cost for the Patriots to trade for A.J. Brown from the Eagles.
One of the more notable examples of that is offensive lineman Joe Thuney, who left the Patriots for the Chiefs in 2021, signing a massive five-year, $80 million contract that the Patriots very easily could have (and probably should have) offered. He has since won two more Super Bowls and is now continuing his career with the Bears.
