Patriots \u201cGive Away\u201d Joe Milton in Lopsided Trade<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Eliot Wolf and Mike Vrabel traded 2nd Year QB Joe Milton and a 2025 7th<\/sup> Round pick #217 to the Dallas Cowboys for a 2025 Compensatory pick #171.\u00a0 This may be a worse trade than the giveaway of Ladd McConkey last year for Ja’Lynn Polk and Javon Baker.<\/p>\n

Milton apparently wasn\u2019t happy being a backup for New England, as he likely felt he was better than Drake Maye.\u00a0 He has one game of experience in the NFL, a win against the Bills that were playing their backups and not trying to win.\u00a0 However, he improved dramatically from the raw 6th<\/sup> round selection in 2024.\u00a0 Credit has to be given to Alex Van Pelt, QB Coach TC McCartney, and Ben McAdoo for his improvement.<\/p>\n

Where would Joe Milton be drafted in this year\u2019s draft now that teams have been able to see him against real NFL players that had made the Bills roster and not some pre-season camp fodder? \u00a0And a player that has drastically improved his technical flaws and still retains that high mobility, size and arm strength?\u00a0 Would that be a 5th-round pick and having to throw in your top 7th-round\u00a0pick?\u00a0 No Way!<\/p>\n

Milton has three years of control left on his rookie contract at $1.050M a year.\u00a0 That is a steal for Dallas, and the Patriots should have received more just on the value of his contract alone.<\/p>\n

Instead, they trade him to a team that he wants to play for, even though they had at least one offer that was better.\u00a0 Did Milton say something or was that much of a pain in the butt that they had to get rid of him?\u00a0 Why are they doing Milton a solid by trading him to a team he wants rather than a team the team would benefit?<\/p>\n

Bottom line here is they struck gold with Milton, drafting and developing him, and got less than a 1 round bump for him!<\/p>\n

Awful.<\/p>\n

I’m angry at this trade, and Patriots fans should be as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
