What others said about the same people
- Albert BreerTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100Breer argues the Jaguars should be taken very seriously, seeing a path to 13 wins and the AFC's No. 1 seed with a first-round bye, and he expects the Jacoby Brissett trade to Baltimore to be completed within a day.
- Nathan JahnkeTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100In a Week 9 recap, Jahnke expects Mark Andrews to remain Baltimore's lead tight end but says rookie Matt Hibner is more likely than Josh Cuevas to eventually overtake him, and he anticipates the Ravens acquiring Jacoby Brissett to start at quarterback. He also suggests Brian Thomas Jr. may have played his final game for Jacksonville ahead of the trade deadline.
- John BreechTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100Breech picks the Jaguars to blow out the quarterback-depleted Ravens on Thursday night, and in Week 9 takes the Bengals to outlast the Falcons in a Madrid shootout. He also expects Jacoby Brissett to be a Raven within 48 hours and to make his first Baltimore start in Week 11.
- Myles SimmonsTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100Reporting on the Cardinals' quarterback depth chart decision, Simmons suggests Jacoby Brissett becomes an obvious candidate to be traded as the third quarterback ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline.
- John BreechTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100In his Week 8 grades, Breech argued the Bills should be considered the AFC's team to beat if their defense keeps playing well, and suggested the Buccaneers now look like the best team in the NFC South. He also floated that the Colts could move on from coach Shane Steichen, that Arizona might shop Jacoby Brissett before the deadline, and that Raiders back Mike Washington will keep out-snapping Ashton Jeanty.
- Jason La CanforaTrade and Signing Calls · Jacoby BrissettHit · 100La Canfora reported that the Cardinals are tanking for 2027 and will probably trade quarterback Jacoby Brissett if they can, and that Josh Sweat wants out of Arizona with Dallas expected to pursue him aggressively in a crowded market.
More trade and signing calls
The same kind of call, about other players and teams.
- Parker HurleyTrade and Signing Calls · Jessie BatesMiss · 0Hurley argues a Jessie Bates trade to San Francisco is unrealistic because Atlanta remains in the weak NFC South race and likely won't sell, and he expects 49ers safety Ji'Ayir Brown to depart in free agency after this season.
- Doug JoubertTrade and Signing Calls · Kendre MillerHit · 100Joubert doubts Taysom Hill will return to the Saints for financial reasons and believes Hill has retired from the NFL. He also expects CJ Donaldson to get more carries while the Saints move on from Kendre Miller.
- Randy GurziTrade and Signing Calls · Taylor RappMiss · 0Gurzi argues that, given Brandon Beane's fondness for reunions, recently released safety Taylor Rapp is a realistic option to return to Buffalo for safety depth — though only if the Bills fail to land a starting-caliber safety at the trade deadline.
- Sean PaytonTrade and Signing Calls · Taylor RappHit · 100Payton said there is a better than good chance safety Taylor Rapp re-signs with the Broncos, and expects it to happen sooner rather than later.
- Joe MarinoTrade and Signing Calls · Taylor RappHit · 100Marino argues the Bills should and almost certainly will release safety Taylor Rapp to save cap space, saying he'd be stunned if Buffalo kept him.
- Randy GurziTrade and Signing Calls · C.J. Gardner-JohnsonHit · 100Gurzi argues the Bills should cut ties with safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson after his spitting ejection, saying the team needs to release him to show discipline and accountability matter.
