Well, according to a report from Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the New England Patriots could be looking to trade CB Stephon Gilmore.
As noted by Dov Kleiman, the Patriots had conversations about trading Gilmore during the offseason and he could be available again.
#Patriots have talked about trading 2019 Defensive player of the year, CB Stephon Gilmore, per @AlbertBreer
They were in contact and had conversations with teams about trading him in August – Could be a trade target again with Pats going through a losing season without Tom Brady pic.twitter.com/I9SIYJexzP

In his report, Breer noted that he highly doubts the Patriots could get a first-round pick for Gilmore and that a second or third-round pick seemed reasonable.
We know all about Bob Quinn’s and Matt Patricia’s love for players from their former team and you can bet that they will at least have the discussion about trading for Gilmore to bolster their secondary.
Nation, would you give up a second-round pick for Gilmore?
