[Old 2020 thread] NFL Free Agency/Trade Rumors:

I’d definitely consider sending CIN a conditional 88th round pick for Ross...no question.

Should Patriots Consider This Hypothetical Trade For Bengals' John Ross? - NESN.com

John Ross has not lived up to expectations in the NFL, and a change of scenery might be what he needs. One NFL analyst suggests the Patriots.

I'd take Ross I suppose as a replacement for Jakobi Meyers...Don't know if he'd be an Upgrayedd over even Byrd at this point though...I prefer some of Barnwell's other trade ideas, such as Dede Westbrook for a 7th...

Don't see anyone beating the Chiefs in the playoffs now barring injury. Too many weapons.

We can.

The Patriots do not have a TE in the top 42 players.

Sad. David Njoku is wasting away in Cleveland exactly as Triumph predicted. 100% catch rate this season. NE should pull a trade for him.

When is the last time Bell played like peak Le'Veon Bell ? 3 years ago ? 2 years ago ?

At this point it is not even clear if the KC improved their starters by signing him. They definitely have more depth in case Helaire would hit the rookie wall or get injured but lets give it 4-5 games and see if this version of Bell is an improvement on what they already had.

He was seen with a walking boot around the stadium towards the end of camp. He is most probably still a couple games away.

Zack Ertz could be intriguing trade deadline target for Patriots

As the 2020 NFL trade deadline nears, is always fun to assess the Patriots needs heading into it, and potential players that could help. With the November 3 deadline looming, Nick “Fitzy” Stevens offered up his deadline wish list when it came to players who…

It's really considerate of PFR's advanced stats to list drop/target percentage rather than percentage of catchable balls dropped (drops/(drops+catches)), because the latter is really ugly here:

2018: 7 drops, 21 catches, 25% of catchable balls dropped
2019: 8 drops, 28 catches, 22.2% of catchable balls dropped
2020: 1 drop, 2 catches, 33.3% of catchable balls dropped

I think he is out for about a month with an ankle injury so that may kill his tradeability.

He cannot get on the field in Cincinnati but the cost might be worth the risk given WR depth.
