The New England Patriots have made a significant move by trading quarterback Joe Milton III to the Dallas Cowboys. The deal involves Milton and a seventh-round draft pick in exchange for a fifth-round pick, which has caught the attention of many in the NFL community. Speculation had been rife regarding Milton's potential trade value, with expectations that the Patriots could obtain a fourth or even third-round pick due to his perceived potential. However, the final return—a fifth-round selection—has left some analysts questioning the team's strategy, considering Milton was a sixth-round pick just a year ago.
