If you really want to pair every PHB feat...
O5E Martial Adept -> A5E Martial Scholar
Learn two maneuvers and gain the resource to use them (1 Super Die vs. 3 Exertion)
Even without checking that all Battle Master maneuvers are available, it's still the closest we're gonna get.
 


On a general note regarding 5E feats, I think the 5.5E feats are better balanced and more consistent. The A5E feats were designed in the 5E context, so many of them lack the +1 ability point that was added in 5.5E. As an example of this, the A5E Battle Caster feat and the 5E War Caster feat are on the weak side as a feat in my opinion, and weaker than the 5.5E War Caster version.

I understand that feats are valuable, as are ASIs, but to say that 5e War Caster is on the weak side as a feat suggests that some casters aren't getting hit enough while they had concentration spells active 😆

5.5e just added stat bonuses to ?all?most? feats, so yeah they're going to be better filled out and less niche, since at the least you're getting a valuable stat boost on top of the actual feat features.
