Patriots trade gives Brown top-5 WR ceiling with 15 FPPG upside
A.J. BrownWRNE
Since arriving in Philadelphia, Brown ranks 10th among receivers on passes 20+ air yards (min. 20 targets) in EPA/Tgt (1.06), 9th in Rec% (42.3%), and 10th in TD/Tgt (15.4%). For 2024-25 with Saquon Barkley in town, he ranks 10th in EPA/Tgt (1.14), 10th in Rec% (47.4%), and 17th in TD/Tgt (15.8%). Now traded to the Patriots, Brown is a great big-play option and terrific touchdown/end-zone threat. At worst he should be a backend WR1 in fantasy; with room for improvement, reaching 15 FPPG is plausible, giving him a top-5 WR ceiling.
