It was an underwhelming value in return for the Patriots given the buzz surrounding Milton this offseason.<\/p>\n<p>NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported numerous teams were interested and that the Patriots even had a \u201cbetter offer\u201d on the table for Milton, but wanted to do right by the young quarterback. But Sports Illustrated\u2019s Albert Breer provided contrary information in a report later Thursday that detailed that trade offers for Milton \u2014 despite the various interest \u2014 weren\u2019t flowing in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne interesting piece of context \u2014 while there were talks with other teams, in the end, the Cowboys\u2019 offer was the only one the Patriots had for QB Joe Milton,\u201d Breer wrote on X. \u201cSo they took the bird in the hand, and moved the 2024 sixth-rounder.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Patriots probably wanted to make sure they offloaded Milton before it became too late and they were stuck with him this season. So, getting a deal done before the draft might have been imperative for them.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<p>Milton caught the attention of teams around the league due to his Week 18 performance against backups from the Buffalo Bills last season. Milton, who cost the Patriots the No. 1 overall pick by leading them to a win over their divisional rival, completed 22-of-29 passes for 241 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for a score.<\/p>\n<p>Patriots fans likely hoped that showing plus Milton\u2019s potential would score them a bigger return in a trade.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless if there was a better offer or not, the Patriots did a good job adding to their draft capital \u2014 they now have two fifth-round picks. And what they do with the pick they got from the Cowboys and how Milton pans out with Dallas will determine if the Patriots made a good decision with this trade.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports Illustrated&#8217;s Albert Breer provided new information on the Patriots trading Joe Milton that was contrary to a previous report.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19565,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-england-patriots"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
