The New England Patriots traded for A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles on June 2, giving up a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick. This transaction comes after the Patriots signed Romeo Doubs to a significant contract earlier in free agency. The possibility of signing Stefon Diggs remains a topic of discussion, as the team's current receiver depth includes Kayshon Boutte, who may be traded.
