Latest A.J. Brown reports only give Eagles GM Howie Roseman a ticking clock to trade away star WR
The Eagles have a bit of a deadline to make this move if they choose to do so.
The Philadelphia Eagles are already creating some chaos this offseason. They are reportedly in the market for Las Vegas Raiders star pass rusher Maxx Crosby. There are sure to be plenty of interested teams trying to trade for him.
Additionally, a possible A.J. Brown trade still looms for the Birds. What’s the latest? How soon could a deal get done if general manager Howie Roseman receives an offer he prefers?
Eagles may need to trade Brown before free agency begins
According to Dianna Russini, the Eagles and teams involved in A.J. Brown trade discussions want the situation resolved in the next couple of days.
This would allow both sides, and any other teams involved, to move on to the rest of their offseason planning and identify other players on their wishlists via free agency or the trade market.
Potential teams showing interest in trading for Brown
There have been a handful of landing spots reported as interested in making this sort of trade so far. The Buffalo Bills had an eye on Brown before trading for Chicago Bears WR D.J. Moore earlier this week.
According to Russini, the Los Angeles Rams also checked in on trading for the Eagles wideout but are not longer in the mix.
The Los Angeles Chargers, New England Patriots, and Baltimore Ravens are the other teams who have Brown on their radar via a trade. The Eagles remain confident in their asking price and don’t want to bulge too much when it comes to a deal.
We will see if a deal gets done. Regardless, the Eagles would like to have this situation handled sooner rather than later, even if there are some salary cap implications they may not like with trading Brown ahead of June 1.
