From the video
I got him at wide receiver 8... He gets traded to the Patriots... he's always consistently one of the best receivers on a route basis... When we look at New England last year, they're green across the board... I'm willing to wipe away a lot of what happened with AJ Brown last year and blame Kevin Patulo, their OC, and just the kind of like toxic locker room... he's in a new environment... I'm buying him.
STACKED’s take
Patriots' elite passing environment and Drake May's accuracy offer Brown first career upside.
Ranked WR8 in the source's rankings (ADPM has him at WR9) and traded to the Patriots. The source is excited about this landing spot, noting Brown 'is always consistently one of the best receivers on a route basis' and 'always up there top three statistically' in per-route metrics. The Patriots' pass rate over expectation is 'green across the board' with 'positive' passing rates in 'nearly every aspect of the field,' contrasting sharply with his entire career: Tennessee (−6% to −9% pass rate under expectation) and Philadelphia (negative passing rates all seven years). Pairing Brown with Drake May's elite accuracy (true completion percentage #1, pressured completion percentage #1, clean pocket completion percentage #1) creates significant upside. The source is 'buying him' based on this major offensive environment upgrade, willing to 'wipe away a lot of what happened with AJ Brown last year and blame Kevin Patulo, their OC, and just the kind of like toxic locker room.' This is framed as a fresh slate and the long-awaited opportunity for Brown.
