The New England Patriots' offseason was punctuated by a blockbuster trade with the Eagles that brought star wide receiver A.J. The Patriots showed they are in the game to win, and part of that entails providing top targets for Drake Maye. He's a consummate professional, and a season from Brown without his logging 1,000+ yards receiving is an aberration, not the norm. 1 last season in Stefon Diggs, but expect Brown to statistically exceed Diggs' 2025 season this year. During his NFL career thus far, the 28-year-old has shown over seven seasons that he's a bona fide top NFL receiver.
