Every trade and signing calls take
401–425 of 1,053
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Carthon predicted that Donald might wait to return until AFTER the season starts. "I don't know that we see him early in September" ... "I think, if the season is going well, we'll see him, let's call it the middle of September, early October."
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
BREECH PREDICTION: With all of that in mind, this seems to set up a situation where Donald returns between Aug. 9-16. ... If I were going to predict an exact date, I'd probably go with Aug. 10.
Jahmyr Gibbs to move
That's not even to mention Jahmyr Gibbs, who is likely to sign his own historic contract sometime this offseason.
D'Andre Swift to move to Chicago Bears
this upward trend for running back contracts will likely force the Bears into a split from D'Andre Swift after this season ... He's earned a payday that the Bears likely can't afford, which will drive him into free agency.
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Speaking on the Dan Patrick Show on Tuesday, Breer said he thinks Donald will suit up in 2026 and “play the whole season.”
George Pickens to move to Dallas Cowboys
With Pickens, the real question is whether the Cowboys will tag him again next year. At $27.298 million for 2026, the Cowboys could hold Pickens in place for $32.75 million in 2027 — still well below the top of the market. Surely, Jerry Jones will be inclined to do that.
Stefon Diggs to move to Washington Commanders
He is set to sign with the Commanders, per an ESPN report. The reported terms are a one-year deal worth up to $12 million, according to ESPN.
George Pickens to move to Dallas Cowboys
If all goes well for Pickens in 2026 and he indeed commands the kind of deal he believes he's worth, the most likely scenario is the Cowboys tag the veteran and trade him to the highest bidder.
George Pickens to move to Dallas Cowboys
the 2026 season will likely be his last in Dallas ... Next offseason, the Cowboys will likely end up either tagging and trading Pickens or allowing him to walk in free agency in exchange for a third-round compensatory draft pick
Trey Benson to move to Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals, in an ideal world, would trade Benson before cutting him for a late-round pick. There's plenty of running back-needy teams who would send a flyer to get Benson
Kayshon Boutte to move to Las Vegas Raiders
Because Boutte is on an expiring deal, a mid-round pick should be enough for the Raiders to get him through the door.

Matthew Stafford to move to San Francisco 49ers
Matthew Stafford signs with the 49ers to make a Super Bowl run

Matthew Stafford to move
I want Matthew Stafford to have one playoff run and it will only happen once he leaves the Motor City. Kyle Shanahan, take the wheel.

Mitchell Trubisky to move
Trubisky will likely head into next season in some other uniform
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 2, 2026 Stefon Diggs to move to Washington Commanders
Look, it can be difficult to play at home sometimes, but I think this situation may work out for both parties. One, the commanders need another receiver opposite ter McLaurin
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
it sounds the very optimistic that he's going to come. Back they're going through the. Process
Keenan Allen to move
But if the Colts are looking for a wide receiver who can contribute right away, the answer is easy: Keenan Allen.
Dallas Goedert to move
His stock will soar once Dallas Goedert leaves the team.
Bijan Robinson to move to Chicago Bears
keep an eye on Bjeon Robinson. With the Christian McCaffrey trade, is the blueprint... We had Bjon Robinson to Caleb Williams and it might be game over in the NFC North.
Jahmyr Gibbs to move to Detroit Lions
But I do think Gibbs is not going anywhere. Lions are not moving off him.
Baker Mayfield to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
I actually think Baker would fit perfectly in Pittsburgh with Mike McCarthy next year when Aaron Rodgers is on.

Bijan Robinson to move
So I'm I'm with Atlanta exploring a trade here... So get rid of Bijon, get draft picks... So make that trade.

Baker Mayfield to move to Tampa Bay Buccaneers
But it does feel like this could be the end of this sort of Baker Mayfield run in Tampa Bay. After the year's over

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Jul 30, 2026 Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
Maybe even getting, closer to Aaron Donald making an official decision to rejoin the team... I think this is happening.
Aaron Donald to move to Los Angeles Rams
part of me just thinks going through the process and just deciding I'm gonna go through a process means he's already decided... And it just seems like would he go through the process if he didn't wanna do it?
