Add a league for Mock Drafting, Draft War Room & In-season sync
The Patriots are trading WR Ja'Lynn Polk to the Saints for a swap of draft picks, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. New England is sending a 2028 seventh-rounder with Polk and getting a 2027 sixth-rounder in return.
That compensation -- a draft selection two years from now -- confirms just how far out of New England's plans Polk has fallen. But his current status also likely played a part.
The Patriots put Polk in season-ending IR ahead of the season for a shoulder injury that required surgery. The 23-year-old arrived as a second-round pick in 2024.
Odds still stand against Polk rebounding to make any fantasy impact. There's potential opportunity, though.
Rashid Shaheed's current contract runs just through this season. Chris Olave's rookie deal runs through 2026, after New Orleans exercised the fifth-year club option.
Polk's rookie contract runs through 2027. We'll see whether he can work himself into the 2026 offensive plan next offseason.
