Potential trade price revealed for Patriots DT Christian Barmore
The Patriots are reportedly open to trading veteran defensive tackle Christian Barmore.
The New England Patriots might be considering trading veteran defensive tackle Christian Barmore before the November 10 trade deadline, according to NFL insider Albert Breer. Breer stated that the Patriots could be interested in acquiring a fourth-round draft pick in exchange for Barmore, who is set to earn $13.3 million in salary for the current season.
This potential trade is due to Barmore's high contract salary and the likelihood that his performance may decline in the following seasons. Barmore has played in seven games this season with 3.5 sacks, eight quarterback hits, and a forced fumble. However, his snap count has decreased behind Milton Williams and Cory Durden, who have been performing well.
The Patriots are looking to build a younger and cheaper roster, which may lead to trading some established players.
