Patriots 2026-27 Off Season

Non-rhetorical question:  how much better is Brown than Diggs when both are focused? 

Statistically, they were very similar last year, but that doesn't mean a lot.  And, Brown has the clear edge going forward due to age.  But, I'm curious for this year only how much the Pats will be improved versus if they'd kept Diggs and used the #1 to upgrade elsewhere.

If he plays every game, I expect Brown to have 1300+ yards and 7+ TDs with Maye. So quite a bit better. I don?t think Hurts is very good.

I think Brown at this point is much more of a "go and get it" guy than Diggs.  Diggs did some really tight window stuff last year on shorter routes and was amazing at it.  I actually think they'd complement each other really well if they can figure out a way to get Diggs back at a bargain.
