For a '27 5th rd pick and a '28 1st rd pick. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy he's out of the NFC East.

Cannot disagree with that, although I think the Pats might have overpaid a little and I hate seeing Philly getting anything that seems like a deal. He wanted out pretty badly, after all, and he turns 29 this month.

They are banking on Smith, Lemon, and Hollywood at wr. Just think Brown is a bigtime receiver who you should not trade but as you said he wanted out and situation in Philly may have gotten untenable. It will be interesting to see how fares with Maye v. Hurts.

Agreed all around. I hope Lemon is a lemon. Hurts really banked on Brown muscling his way open and bringing in contested catches. Without that, I hope their offense takes a real hit. Four OCs in as many years too - a bit of an indictment of Siriani, I’d say.

It’s amazing how intensely I dislike all the teams in our division.

A.J. Brown is the real deal. Nearly impossible to stop with man coverage. You do not trade players like him unless he's become a malcontent which seemingly occurred here. Just glad he' out of Philly again. Huge season coming up for Hurts and Sirainni.
