"The further we get into the season, the more it truly looks like the New England Patriots have turned a corner, and it's all thanks to first-year head coach Mike Vrabel. Under Vrabel's leadership, this team has an identity. They have clear direction. And, with just a few weeks to go before the league's trade deadline on November 4, Vrabel and the Patriots could be eyeing a massive move to help put them over the top and become a real threat going forward."
"Trey Hendrickson could be there for the Patriots' taking before the NFL trade deadline First, the Bengals would have to lose a couple of games, which is very possible. The recent trade for Joe Flacco proves that the Bengals aren't exactly giving up on the year without Joe Burrow. But, will Flacco move the needle all that much? It's not likely."
The New England Patriots have developed clear identity and direction under first-year head coach Mike Vrabel. The team may pursue a major trade before the November 4 deadline to become a more serious contender. Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson is a potential target if the Bengals falter and decide to sell. Hendrickson has 4.0 sacks in five games and fits Vrabel's preference for gritty, disruptive defensive ends. The Bengals' refusal to extend Hendrickson increases the likelihood he would test free agency and opens a window for New England to offer a long-term contract. A stronger pass rush would help the Patriots compete with the Buffalo Bills.
