Eagels Got Good Value in Brown Trade

Four years after giving up a first-round pick and third-round pick to acquire Brown from the Titans, the Eagles traded him to New England and received a first-round pick and a fifth-round pick. The Eagles went to two Super Bowls during Brown's tenure, winning one championship. game-sweetbonanza.com

The Eagles negotiated the trade when they had limited leverage because Brown wanted to go to New England. By making the deal promptly on June 1, the Patriots gave Brown time to adjust to their offense before training camp, but still managed to acquire the star receiver.
