Patriots former director of player personnel and Current Texans GM apparently wants the Patriots backup quarterback.

The Patriots fought to and nail to keep Nick Caserio from the Texans. Denying him the chance to be a general manager, only to eventually lose him to the Texans. Caserio was a coveted scout or with the title director of player personnel. Patriots Nation respected the crap out of his opinion and understood how valuable he was.

Now Caserio in 2021 is the general manager of the Houston Texans. Which means the Texans know all about how good and bad the players left over from the 2020 season are. 

One such player is Jarrett Stidham, a former fourth round quarterback from 2019. Majority of Patriots fans view Stidham as a bum, a bust; Cam Newton with a lesser running ability. However, as previously stated, fans like the team, also respect Caserio's opinion of players.

Caserio apparently has had his Texans calling the Patriots about trading for Jarrett Stidham. If the Patriots make the trade, it's highly unlikely that the Patriots have their 2022 backup quarterback left on the roster. Leaving a hole to be filled in 2022.

Furthermore, if fans are right that Stidham is garbage, than why would Caserio want him? General managers and scouts can be wrong on occasion but is this something you're willing to gamble on, even with Jones being the future? We all know that good backup quarterbacks are hard to acquire.

The question fans must ask themselves is do the Patriots wanna risk trading a potential starting quality back up or do they want to risk hanging on to a developmental quarterback that could be a bust. It's a gamble that could backfire.

Remember fans didn't see practices. They only saw television broadcasts and not coaches tape. Fans have no idea how good or bad the players really are or what the opinion of the players are by coaches, scouts, and exes. 

So forget everything we've seen from Stidham. Ask yourself this, do you really wanna give your former director of player personnel the ability to nitpick and take players he wants off your roster, and how much are you going to charge him.
