Packers could cut ties with $47M receiver in blockbuster trade with Patriots | Sporting News

The New England Patriots added Stefon Diggs and Kyle Williams to their offense this offseason.

However, adding one more reliable threat could change the trajectory of their team.

Drake Maye was a Pro Bowler last season and will be expected to get even better in year two.

The Patriots had a busy offseason, adding key players to their team through free agency and the draft.

However, Maye's ascent will be the deciding factor in their success.

Adding Diggs and Williams will help, but FanSided's Wynston Wilcox suggests the Patriots trade for Romeo Doubs of the Green Bay Packers.

"Not that Doubs would be the immediate game-changer.

But having weapons like Diggs, Doubs, Williams and TreVeyon Henderson means Mayes margin of error is slim," wrote Wilcox.

"And New England needs to know if they have the right quarterback or not.

Maye is in a great position and the opportunity to add Doubs would only amplify that." Even though it's just his second season, Maye is going into an important year.

The Patriots need to know if they have another Mac Jones situation on their hands.

However, giving Maye all the necessary pieces will help them determine if he is a player worth building around.

The Packers' receiver room was already crowded before they drafted Matthew Golden and Savion Williams.

Doubs is in a contract year and has failed to break out as the team's No.1 receiver.

Jayden Reed looks to be a piece the team likes more than Doubs, making Doubs more expendable.

He has the most reliable hands of their current receivers, but the team may not see him as a player worth extending with so many young receivers on the team.
