NFL Trade Verdict
New England Patriots Win
San Francisco sent Trent Brown and a fifth-round pick to New England for the third-round pick that became Tarvarius Moore. Brown immediately started for a Super Bowl champion, and Ja'Whaun Bentley added more Patriots value. New England wins the trade.
New England Patriots Received
- player Trenton Brown
- pick 2018 5th round pick (143rd overall, Ja'Whaun Bentley )
San Francisco 49ers Received
- pick 2018 3rd round pick (95th overall, Tarvarius Moore )
Trade Analysis
Moore gave San Francisco some value, but New England received the better package. Brown became a starting left tackle during the Patriots' 2018 title run, and Bentley became an additional useful piece. That outweighs the 49ers' return.
