Patriots Young QB Linked to Cowboys in Trade Proposal

The New England Patriots are going to have to do something with Jarrett Stidham. He has underachieved since the team selected him in the fourth round of the 2019 NFL Draft.

At 24 years old, he should coming into his own as a starting quarterback, not battling Brian Hoyer, rookie first-round pick Mac Jones and Cam Newton for the starting job in New England, let alone a roster spot.

Stidham will begin training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, which isn’t a permanent thing, but it just might be the first step before a final decision is made on his future with the Patriots.

Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald fired up a potential trade the Patriots could make with the Dallas Cowboys to give Stidham a fresh start, and New England a young wide receiver.

Trade Proposal: Stidham to the Dallas Cowboys for WR Cedrick Wilson
It doesn’t appear as though the Patriots are going to keep 4 quarterbacks on the roster in 2021, and most see Stidham as the most likely to be traded or released.

No way!!!

Cedrick Wilson has proven to be a bonafied very good backup WR who can start a few games if needed. Plus, he's a good special teams contributor.

Stidham is a total bust!!!

Jerry had best not even take any trade offers for that stiff! We need to keep Wilson. The Patriots are trying to use the anti-Cowboys media to peer pressure the Cowboys into possibly falling for such a scam of a potential trade.

I haven't watched Stidham enough to vouch for him.

But the staff has brought in several young WRs that they are excited about….adding to an already loaded WR room.
There is a REAL chance Wilson does not make it.

So a Boston sportswriter comes up with a trade that favors New England?

Color me shocked.

I can do the same thing too. I think we should trade Wilson and Cannady for Gilmore.
What???

I wouldn't. Gilmore is super old (will be 31 in September)! Patriots would have to throw in some young stud with potential as well if they want to trade for Cedrick Wilson.

Post Edit: Forget this trade! We need to keep Cedrick Wilson. Period!

The Patriots are trying to rob us of a very good and young talent. No way should Jerry even consider the thought of trading Cedrick.

Wilson is not a lock to make the roster. At $2M and in the final year of his contract, Cowboys have a tough decision if other WRs show something.

Stidham is not a lock to make the roster.

It wouldn’t surprise me if both are moved. Not necessarily traded one for the other.
Somebody would have to have an amazing camp and Wilson would have to stink.

He’s proven he can make plays on offense, can return kicks, can give Lamb breaks on punt returns. People forget the value of a player who can consistently field punts properly.

He’s a guy you can bring back cheap next season when Gallup leaves
