Colin Cowherd Believes Patriots Should Target This Wideout Before Deadline

Colin Cowherd thinks that the Patriots should target a specific wideout before the trade deadline comes out. The Patriots are now coming off of 2 wins in a row. It looks like both sides of the ball are now getting the hand of things. Offensively, things started off pretty slowly with a rookie QB at the helm. It is clear that there are still some things to work on though. Some are wondering what the Patriots will do about the trade deadline.

Colin Cowherd is one of those people. He recently came out with some advice for Bill Belichick on who he should try to pick up.

“All that’s missing for this team is a deep threat. And by the way, OBJ (Odell Beckham Jr.) and DeSean Jackson both could be moved by tomorrow at 1 (o’clock) our time,” Cowherd said recently.

“I would strongly look at, if I was New England, at DeSean Jackson,” Cowherd continued. “They’ve got enough possession guys. They have the coach, the special teams, the quarterback. He (Mac Jones) throws a beautiful deep ball, we saw it at Alabama. DeSean Jackson wants out of the Rams and well-coached teams, we’ve always said this, they get better like a well-run business over time, block by block. It’s masonry.”

“You start looking around the AFC, I mean we know Buffalo’s good… but there’s a lot of ‘Ehh I don’t know if I would trust them in a big spot,’” Cowherd said.

“New England now, the defense is a championship defense, the head coach is, the coordinator is, the run game is, the special teams, the offensive line,” he added. “They need a vertical dimension to this offense and they’re a team you want no business playing in the playoffs.”

Pretty interesting stuff from Colin Cowherd and he might actually have a point for once. The Patriots are missing an offensive weapon and this will be important as the season drags on. It is clear that they are getting some stuff figured out. There are still a few pieces missing.
