"Drake Maye is playing at an MVP level, Stefon Diggs is rejuvenated, and the defense is suffocating. On top of playing well, the management is making some phenomenal trades. Earlier this year, they managed to get draft capital back for Davon Godchaux and Ja'Lynn Polk, both very ineffective players. The bloated contract of Kyle Dugger was shipped off to Pittsburgh on Tuesday, and they also nabbed a draft pick for Keion White."
"The Pat McAfee Show discussed the Patriots adding to their juggernaut defense, which has allowed just 186.3 passing yards per game since Week 3. Looking at Garrett's contract, McAfee said, "The contract kind of looks tradable." While that may seem an odd thing to say, it's important. Garrett requested a trade this past offseason but eventually signed a four-year, $160 million deal with Cleveland. He has ten sacks to this point in the year, with a career-high five coming against New England in Week 8."
New England sits atop the AFC East and second in the AFC while combining an MVP-level performance from Drake Maye with a rejuvenated Stefon Diggs and a suffocating defense. Management recovered draft capital for Davon Godchaux and Ja'Lynn Polk, traded Kyle Dugger's bloated contract to Pittsburgh, and acquired a draft pick for Keion White. The defense has allowed just 186.3 passing yards per game since Week 3. Pat McAfee noted that Myles Garrett's contract "kind of looks tradable." Garrett requested a trade this offseason, signed a four-year, $160 million deal, has ten sacks this year, and posted five sacks against New England in Week 8. A Garrett trade would demand multiple first-round picks and additional assets.
