Winovich on the Trade Block?

Why NFL Insider Thinks Patriots Might Trade Chase Winovich

Chase Winovich has a lot of competition for playing time, and NFL Media's Mike Giardi thinks there's a chance he is moved in a trade.

I know Steelers wanted him badly and traded down when we picked him.
Doesn't seem to be a great fit.

He can rush the passer I say keep him, let him go to work on 3rd downs obvious passing downs.

I'd like to see the Patriots keep him and find a consistent role for him. But he seems to be the "free-spirit" type -- both on-field and off -- that doesn't last long in New England.

 

[borisman]

If BB is sick of him and can net a 3rd rounder , he’s a goner. I’m sure plenty teams are interested but may not be willing to pay the price. We shall soon see. It’ll be done one way or another in a week.

Dude loves New Hampshire.....

I think he sticks around.

 

[amfootball]

I hope not.

 

[Love The Drake]

He can rush the passer consistently that has worth.

I mean, we have a lot of good competition for snaps on the edge. But let's consider some of those on an individual basis:

Judon is a lock for a big role. High priced free agent who's done nothing to change that value thus far.

Van Noy is the other presumptive "starter" on the edge, but he's over 30 and may not be a guy you throw out there for 80% anymore.

Uche looks good, but has been nicked up thus far and still needs to prove consistent value in real games.

Jennings hasn't shown any more in camp this year than he did in the season last year.

Perkins is a rookie.

Anderson and Wise play a much different role. If they're getting snaps, it's because the matchup wouldn't call for a player like Winovich anyway.

So while I like this group and think it has the potential to be really good, I wouldn't say that Winovich has an impossible climb for snaps if he sticks around.

Heard the Jets need pass rush help. Winovich to the stanks for 2 first rounders and nothing less.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

Every year at this time there are threads and comments about trading this guy or that guy. It rarely happens.

 

[holyredeemer]

Hell yeah. Let’s trade one of our better chess pieces when it comes to rush packages. Who needs ‘em. I’d rather keep guys like Jennings around to keep the bench warm.

 

[Simpelton]

Didn't he get more than his fair share of hurries last year? Not many sacks, but consistent pressure, which helps the defense look good and the opposing offense look not-good.

Besides, what I've seen when I watch Winovich is a very opportunistic player who's willing to contribute in a number of areas. Not keen on losing that.

Depends on his value to other teams. A 4th round pick is probably where I wouldn't be sure what call to make, with any better offers being an automatic take and any worse offers being an automatic leave.

He might not be a complete player, but he can contribute as a member of a rotation. He's probably closest to Uche in his role, and Uche seems to get hurt a lot.

He led the team in sacks, QB hits and was # 2 in tackles for loss.

The only way I trade is for a good WR. Not another Dorsett or 5hitbum like that.

Living in Mass tends to do that.

After losing Carl Lawson to a season-ending torn Achilles, the Jets now are looking for ways to acquire a pass rusher to help fill the void, per sources. A trade before the season is being explored.

LB/EDGE
Hightower, Bentley, Judon, Van Noy, Uche, Perkins

DL
Wise, Guy, Godchaux, Anderson, Barmore

I have us with two more roster spots in the Front Six. I could see Belichick wanting someone other than Jennings and Winovich.

Options include Adams, Davis, Spence and Cowart.

2019 - 3rd round pick. Id take a 2nd.

Winovich is a fire hydrant against the run. But pass rushers on the other hand have huge value in today’s nfl!

I would move winovich for a good cornerback immediately!
