All-Pro Weapon Could Be Offseason Trade Target; 3 Destinations Emerge

1. New England Patriots

Far and away the most likely spot on this list is the New England Patriots. Following a promising rookie season, the UNC product is in the thick of the MVP race despite having unremarkable options in the passing game. If he can lead the league in EPA/dropback with Kayshon Boutte and an older Stefon Diggs, imagine what he could do after a Justin Jefferson trade.

The Patriots have the resources to make a big move like this. They’re currently projected to have over $49.2 million in cap space next year and they have 11 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft. The Patriots Super Bowl window is wide open, and it’s time for them to go all-in and capitalize on Maye’s rookie contract.
