The New England Patriots already have their quarterback for the future, or so it seems.
Drake Maye seems to be their guy, and they’re reportedly fully committed to him.
However, they also have a promising and sought-after gunslinger.
According to a report by Mark Daniels (via Savage Sports), the Patriots have fielded multiple calls and trade inquiries about Joe Milton III.

This is far from a surprise, especially considering how weak this NFL Draft class is at the position and the high upside he showed in limited action last season.
Milton has already been in the league for one year, and even though multiple teams are keeping tabs on him, he might not cost other teams that much.
He’s got one of the strongest arms in the league, and his athleticism and speed are more than evident.
The Patriots, however, might be better off letting him go.
As much as some competition is always positive, and as much as they’ve stated that they’re ready to roll with Maye for years to come, perhaps having him there will put some unnecessary pressure on him.
Teams like the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers look like logical destinations for Milton.
Perhaps the Los Angeles Rams or Las Vegas Raiders could also be in the mix, and while the New York Giants have already signed two veterans, they could also be interested in his services.
Milton is very talented, and it would be a big surprise to see him stay in Foxboro past this year’s NFL Draft.
