Brown...sure...Julio...sure...after that, when you take into account production and the contract they are currently under...I see no one...
The guy gets open. He catches the football. Pretty good speed. Bigger than normal body for a slot WR. 3rd in the NFL in receiving yards. Straight up playmaker.
If we're going dollar for dollar... I don't know that you could take Antonio Brown or Julio ahead of him because of their big salaries. Thielen is making a fraction of what those two are making and is still producing like a top 10 WR. He's 3rd in the NFL in receiving yards... is the ONLY WR in the NFL to have 5+ receptions in every game this season... and is one of THREE WRs to have multiple 150+ yard receiving games this season (Brown and Hilton have 3 to Thielen's 2).
Or I'll put it another way, after Brown and Julio (maybe Green) is there another receiver you'd trade Adam straight-up for right now?
