Who Should I Start? Joe Milton III or Devin Leary

New England Patriots quarterback Joe Milton III made a good enough impression in his NFL debut in the Week 18 victory against the Buffalo Bills backups that he could become a trade chip this offseason. "I thought the Patriots would hold off on entertaining a trade of Joe Milton, who was drafted in the sixth round (193rd overall) last year, for at least another season, but there's increasing belief around the NFL that the Patriots are at least contemplating a trade of Milton this offseason," Boston Sports Journal's Greg Bedard wrote. This year's QB draft class is considered weak, and the Pats could fetch up to a third-round pick for Milton this year if QB-needy teams don't feel like taking their chances on QB prospects like Riley Leonard, Dillon Gabriel or Jaxson Dart. If New England doesn't shop Milton before the draft in April, they could revisit and look to trade him this summer.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Devin Leary was the only one on the team to find the end zone in the 16-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday. The rookie out of Kentucky completed six of his 10 passes for 37 yards and scored on a one-yard QB keeper in the fourth quarter which tied the game at 13. On the unofficial depth chart, Leary is listed as the third-string QB behind Josh Johnson, but he looked better than the tenth-year veteran. Leary will likely get some more work in the next couple of preseason games while fellow rookie Emory Jones could get a drive or two as well.
