Insider predicts Patriots' asking price for Kayshon Boutte trade

The New England Patriots went from being quite thin at wide receiver to having a bit of a logjam at the position.

Trading for A.J. Brown gave them a blue-chip go-to guy, and Romeo Doubs might be the perfect complement.

As such, and with no new deal on the horizon, Kayshon Boutte may have become the odd man out in Foxborough, and he'd benefit from a trade.

Considering that, and given that Boutte has also talked about wanting a bigger role, NFL insider Albert Breer believes the Patriots could gladly let him go for a fifth-round pick.

“I think the plan all along has been to ‘do right by’ Kayshon Boutte," Breer said. (H/T Savage Sports) they’ve tried to do their best to find a new home for him. If somebody called with a 5th round pick over draft weekend, he’s gone… I do think eventually he’s going to be somewhere else.”
