Patriots Paid About 299-429 Points for A.J. Brown as Bills Gave 270 for DJ Moore

New England’s trade for A.J. Brown cost the equivalent of roughly 299 to 429 Jimmy Johnson chart points, versus 270 points for Buffalo’s March deal for DJ Moore.
That gap hinges on how a 2028 first-round pick is discounted: valuing it as the last pick of Round 2 puts Brown’s package at 299 points, while a mid-second-round valuation lifts it to 429.
The Patriots also sent a 2027 fifth-rounder, while the Bills received a fifth-round pick back with Moore, making that Day 3 swap the clearest difference between the two deals.
Brown has been the better receiver, but the article argues the two AFC East teams paid broadly comparable prices, with New England giving up only a modest premium for the stronger player.
