Was Joe Milton Traded Because Patriots Missed Out On No. 1 Draft Pick?

Did the Patriots trade Joe Milton to the Cowboys because they missed out on the No. 1 pick of the 2025 NFL draft? Milton is a promising young quarterback who was traded along with a 7th-round pick to Dallas for a 5th-round pick to provide some competition for Dak Prescott. In Week 17 of this past season, Joe Milton led the Patriots to a win over the Bills which ultimately cost New England the No. 1 draft pick. George Balekji & Travis Thomas debate over the Patriots’ decision to trade Joe Milton & if it was just a roster decision or retaliation for Milton’s part in New England missing out on No. 1 draft pick of the 2025 NFL draft.
