Every trade and signing calls take
276–300 of 1,947
Brian Thomas Jr. to move to Washington Commanders
Washington Commanders — Commanders receive: WR Brian Thomas Jr. Jaguars receive: 2027 fourth-round pick, DT Shy Tuttle
Jonathan Taylor to move — “traded by the Indianapolis Colts”
All signs point to the Indianapolis Colts trading Jonathan Taylor, and it should be easier to add his replacement now rather than after the trade is complete.
Tyler Warren to stay with Indianapolis Colts
You're not gonna go get Tyler Warren from him. He's one of the few players we're gonna keep around and build around.
Jonathan Taylor to move to Seattle Seahawks
I could see Seattle giving up a first or a second round pick, um, and upgrading to Jonathan Taylor
- PendingIsaiah PintoTrade and Signing Calls2026 season
Tony Pollard to move — “deal him to a contender”
With the NFL trade deadline nearing on November 10, Pollard's breakout performances may lead the Titans to deal him to a contender.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 3, 2026 Daiyan Henley to move to Detroit Lions
The Lions may need a starting-level rental and Henley could be a good fit in Detroit,
Khalil Mack to move — “should find a new home soon”
Their unwillingness to discuss trade options may have narrowed the potential trade partners for Mack but he should find a new home soon.
Dalvin Tomlinson to move to Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jaguars were already rumored to be looking into adding defensive line depth before the injury, now it is all but certain.
Keaton Mitchell to move — “teams in search of a change of pace back could find value in bringing in Mitchell”
As running backs go down around the NFL, teams in search of a change of pace back could find value in bringing in Mitchell.
Donte Jackson to move to Detroit Lions
The Lions are also in need of defensive back help and could make sense for Jackson.
Isaiah Williams to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
Third-year wide receiver Isaiah Williams is among the players who could be moved in the coming days... If they attempt to trade him and recoup the best return before the trade deadline, one potential destination stands out as the best first-call option for Mougey & Co. Jets should call Steelers about a potential Isaiah Williams trade
TreVeyon Henderson to move — “ends up on the move in less than two weeks”
Some teams are looking for running backs at the deadline (the 6-1 Minnesota Vikings is one that remains a top buyer at that spot), and so maybe Henderson ends up on the move in less than two weeks.
Brandon Aiyuk to move — “the 49ers trade him before the Nov. 10 deadline”
With the NFL trade deadline steadily approaching on Nov. 10, he's aiming to be reinstated quickly and have the 49ers trade him so he can revive his NFL career. ... The 49ers can easily dangle Aiyuk as trade bait for those desperate teams.
Jacoby Brissett to move — “obvious trade candidate”
While Brissett becomes an obvious trade candidate as the third QB, LaFleur did not directly answer when asked if he's expecting Brissett to be with the club beyond the Nov. 10 trade deadline.
Saquon Barkley to stay with Philadelphia Eagles
I don't think they trade Saquan Barkley. I think it would take a lot to get Saquan Barkley out of there, but I do think that they'll listen.
Budda Baker to stay with Arizona Cardinals
"Budda Baker? That guy's been such a stud. I don't know if Budda Baker's going to be traded, I don't think Arizona wants to move on from a guy who has meant so much to that franchise, who is such a baller"
Jacoby Brissett to move — “could be dealt”
Arizona could also see faces such as Josh Sweat and Jacoby Brissett dealt as well.
Josh Sweat to move — “could be dealt”
Arizona could also see faces such as Josh Sweat and Jacoby Brissett dealt as well.
Jonathan Taylor to move — “seems he's gonna get traded”
Jonathan Taylor seems he's gonna get traded. I don't know if he's gonna go for a first round pick.
Josh Downs to move — “the two sides settle in on, like, a fourth round pick for Josh Downes here in the next eight days”
I know the Colts have asked for a third round draft pick... maybe the two sides settle in on, like, a fourth round pick for Josh Downes here in the next eight days.
Kirk Cousins to stay with Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders... they're not looking to trade their players... Kirk Cousins, I don't see as an option.
Breece Hall to stay with New York Jets
Even if it means Hall won't be on the trade block.
Jonathan Taylor to move — “a Jonathan Taylor trade feeling inevitable”
With a Jonathan Taylor trade feeling inevitable, Giddens and current backup Seth McGowan are the likely candidates to take over the Colts' backfield.
Josh Allen to move — “not changing teams”
it's not like Josh Allen's changing teams
Brock Purdy to stay put
Brock Purdy is not going anywhere.
