Patriots Hold Off on A.J. Brown Trade

0:00It's April 4th. This is NFL News Today, AI-powered stories from around the league. I'm Cory with the story. Patriots been chasing AJ Brown from the Eagles all offseason through these trade rumors, but Philly's holding firm on their price tag. Reports say they're demanding at least the first round pick, plus some extra draft capital, what insiders call a, one in change. New England hasn't bitten yet, keeping things at a standstill. Ben Vollen dropped the details in the Boston Globe after chatting with NFL owners at their meetings. A general manager in the wide receiver hunt confirmed the Eagles' ask hasn't budged, even as talks cooled off for now. Fans and analysts see Brown as a game-changer for the past passing attack, pairing him with their young guns. But the cost feels steep when you've already got Romeo Doves locked in this offseason. He's got that breakout number one potential to lead the squad. Discussions are unhold until after June 1st, when Brown's contract cap hit lightens up for Philly. That deadline might shake things loose, possibly lowering their demands or reopening the door.

1:04Patriots smart to keep tabs, but pulling the trigger only makes sense if the Eagles drop that first rounder ass-built smart, not splashy, and let. Doves cook in the meantime.
