Rams Out on A.J. Brown, Trade to Patriots Likely?

Saturday, March 14, 12:11 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles are expected to move wide receiver A.J. Brown this offseason, with Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk now describing a trade as "inevitable." At this point, it sounds like it's truly a matter of when -- not if -- Brown will be dealt. June 1 remains a popular date being thrown around, as trading Brown after that point would result in significantly fewer salary cap consequences for the Eagles. As a result, we may see trade rumors continue to run rampant for another two-and-a-half months. Which teams might be in on Brown, though? Florio reports that the Rams, who were previously seen as a top landing spot, have "tapped out of the talks." It would have been an interesting fit anyway, given that Los Angeles already has Puka Nacua and Davante Adams on its roster. Instead, Florio writes that the Patriots are viewed as the favorite to acquire Brown, with one NFL source predicting "that the Patriots will be the eventual destination." That would make more sense than the Rams; although New England signed Romeo Doubs this offseason, they're still in search of a No. 1 receiver after releasing Stefon Diggs. Reuniting Brown with head coach Mike Vrabel would pay dividends for the Patriots' offense, and it would also solidify quarterback Drake Maye's status as a top-three quarterback in fantasy football.

Travis Hunter News

Is Travis Hunter Now an IDP-Only Asset?

Saturday, March 14, 4:59 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars two-way player Travis Hunter (knee) saw nearly a 2:1 offense-to-defense snap-count split in his rookie campaign and appeared to be on the verge of a breakout before an LCL knee injury ended his season in Week 7. With reports out of Jacksonville that Hunter will spend year two as a full-time defensive back with part-time offensive usage, the 22-year-old has slipped outside the top-100 dynasty players in consensus rankings. The Jaguars remain adamant that they will not trade receiver Brian Thomas Jr., creating a bit of a bottleneck at the position with Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington, and making Hunter more valuable to the team on defense. Even in IDP formats, cornerbacks often rely on outlier seasons to gain fantasy relevance, and Hunter's limited work at receiver might not be enough to make him anything more than a late-round upside-play.
