Zolak & Bertrand: Could the Patriots still trade for Jerry Jeudy?
On Wednesday’s edition of Zolak & Bertrand, Beetle questioned whether a trade for Jerry Jeudy could still be on the table for the Patriots.
I haven’t heard anything, but…
Marc Bertrand: Bert (Breer) seems to indicate there are some calls happening. A skill position player that the Patriots could add in a trade and he singles out receiver and tight end.
Scott Zolak: I mean, receiver makes sense to me because you’ve tried to bring other guys in. You’ve tried to bring DeAndre Hopkins in. That’s an indicator that, man, we need help here.
Marc Bertrand: I’ve got to a name. And I didn’t talk to Burt. I did not talk to Burt after the interview. But I started to think about the guys that I think Bert speaks to and I think it’s a name you’ve heard before. What if the Broncos are open to trading Jerry Jeudy again?
Scott Zolak: Wow.
Marc Bertrand: It’s just a shot in the dark. Total guess. It’s a name that’s been linked to the Patriots before. Now, Sean Payton’s gone through spring and summer with Jerry Jeudy and I don’t know, I have not even read anything about how his summer has gone.
Scott Zolak: That’d be a massive trade. I would consider that a massive one. You’re not bringing in a third or fourth tight end or sixth receiver. Jerry Jeudy would be coming in here to sort of be in the field with you for week one. That would be a big one. I think hat’s big wishing right there.
Marc Bertrand: Sean Payton two weeks ago said of Jerry Jeudy, he’s picking up what we’re doing. You see his explosiveness. He’s pretty savvy. We’re playing him probably a little too much at Z and F. I’d like to see him a little more at one of those spots, but overall, he’s doing well. Hmm.
Scott Zolak: Sounds like he’s keeping him.
Marc Bertrand: I’m just throwing a name out there, I’m just saying, like, who are the coaches? You know some of the coaches that Bert talks too. But that’s what I’m thinking. Like it had to be one of these teams that told Bert like, hey, we got a call from New England about so-and-so.
