Chargers Trade for A.J. Brown: Game Changer?

0:00On April 9th, the Los Angeles Chargers are looking to level up this off-season, and one wild trade idea has folks buzzing, snagging Philadelphia Eagles. Why do receiver AJ Brown? The proposal floats sending their 22nd overall draft pick and wide-out Quentin Justin to Philly, in exchange for Brown, plus A-20, 27th Rounder. With Justin Herbert slinging it, this could supercharge their attack. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel Scheme loves in-breaking routes in yards after the catch, and Brown crushed that last year, ranking 6th. In receiving yards, over-expected on those plays, Chargers sit third in salary cap space leak wide, so absorbing Brown's big contract ain't no sweat. It had let them flip Justin, and build around proven talent. Fans and analysts see this pairing Brown with young stud Lad McConkey as a nightmare duo for defenses, top tier at every level. Herbert's early career fireworks could return, opening up the whole offense, like old times.
