Terry McLaurin wants to get out of the Washington commanders after the wide receiver asked for a job last week. Consequently, there will be no shortage of teams interested in having a large that has recorded five consecutive seasons of more than 1,000 reception yards.
Monday, Athletics analyzed five teams This could take a step for McLaurin, including the Patriots of New England. During the offseason, the Patriots brought Josh McDaniels back to be the attacking coordinator while adding Stefon Diggs as a target n ° 1 for Drake Maye.
Nevertheless, New England could add another veteran receiver to McLaurin to give Maye another weapon, so the 22-year-old takes the next stage of his development. So, what could the patriots offer Washington? Here is what athletics suggested:
The Patriotes get: McLaurin
Commanders obtain: 2027 Third round choice
“Patriots are an obvious option when a player is on the commercial block, since the list must improve and that it has the most ceiling space in the NFL,” wrote Chad Graff of the Athletic.
“That said, a business for McLaurin seems a little improbable for them. If it was before the project, they would probably have been very interested. But with Stefon Diggs now in the fold, if you add McLaurin, you risk boxing Kyle Williams, limiting its playing time and development.

“In addition, a move for McLaurin, who will be 30 years old soon, could make more sense for a team with an open championship window. The patriots are still rebuilding and could have better use for their ample hooding space according to the offseason rather than pursuing a 30 -year receiver when they are still a few years from the serious competition.”
Last season, McLaurin recorded a career summit in the touchdown with 13, the most since his recruit season when he took seven. In addition, it was the fifth consecutive season of the two times with more than 1,000 yards, he was therefore a stable and reliable target over half a decennia.
The product of Ohio St. was also productive with Jayden Daniels, who was a recruit, while perhaps the Patriots could see that McLaurin has the characteristics to work with a young quarterrier and would integrate into Maye.
