Every trade and signing calls take
51–75 of 1,947
Evan Engram to stay with Denver Broncos
"Another TE on the radar is Broncos' Evan Engram, who has garnered interest. But he's considered unlikely to be moved in part because Denver doesn't have a replacement (though the Broncos have called around just in case)," Fowler reported on X.
Brandon Aiyuk to move — “likely will be cut by 4:00 p.m. ET today”
The 49ers likely will release Aiyuk. ... The only realistic option is to cut him.
George Pickens to move — “ends up leaving Dallas after the season”
Pickens is playing on the franchise tag this year, and there's a good chance that he ends up leaving Dallas after the season.

Ladd McConkey to stay with Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers still have zero interest trading away players like Mack, McConkey and Herbert.

Justin HerbertLos Angeles Chargers
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 10, 2026 Zach Sieler to stay with Miami Dolphins
The New York Giants also have been interested in D-tackle help, but again the Dolphins likely aren't moving Sieler.
Jarvis Brownlee Jr. to move — “isn't part of the team's current or future plans”
it's fair to wonder whether the Jets will simply move on from Brownlee... For now, it seems Brownlee isn't part of the team's current or future plans.
Harrison Phillips to move — “could end up being traded”
1. Harrison Phillips, DT — Phillips fits the mold that Cisco had: a player on an expiring deal who deserves to play for a Super Bowl contender... he would be the kind of veteran move that the Jets should make for his sake.
Will McDonald IV to move — “could end up being traded if a team offers as high as a second-round pick”
But if a team blows them away with an offer, especially one that rises to as high as a second-round pick, then the Jets should do everything possible to move the former first-round pick.
- PendingDan GartlandTrade and Signing Calls2026 season
Jonathan Taylor to move — “won't be a Colt for long”
Pro Bowl running back Jonathan Taylor knows he won’t be a Colt for long.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 10, 2026 Joshua Uche to move to Jacksonville Jaguars
Trade for Miami Dolphins EDGE Josh Uche ... We have been banging the drum for the Jaguars to trade for Josh Uche
Will McDonald IV to move to Jacksonville Jaguars
Trade for New York Jets EDGE Will McDonald IV ... What about a third to add McDonald and give them a top-level third-down package
Dorance Armstrong to move to Jacksonville Jaguars
Trade for Washington Commanders EDGE Dorance Armstrong ... Sending a Day 3 pick to add Armstrong to the rotation would be a legit boost.
Dontayvion Wicks to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh's top priority is wide receiver, and Wicks and Brown fill that need... Both would likely go for Day 3 draft picks.
Riq Woolen to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
As for Woolen, that's a bigger name who's still likely cheap... If they're not looking to spend much but still want to add a bigger name, Wollen is the easy answer.
Marquise Brown to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
For the Steelers, there are three names they can ask about - cornerback Tariq Woolen and wide receivers Marquise Brown and Dontayvion Wicks... Both would likely go for Day 3 draft picks.
Brian Thomas Jr. to move to Las Vegas Raiders
If the Raiders can land the 2024 first-round pick for a second- or third-round pick, Spytek should pull the trigger.
Maxx Crosby to move to Dallas Cowboys
It wouldn't shock me in the slightest if Dallas offers a first-round pick plus for the two-time All-Pro pass rusher.
Kirk Cousins to move to Minnesota Vikings
If Minnesota shows its desperation and offers a second-round pick, that deal should happen.
- PendingFantasyProsTrade and Signing Calls2026 season
Jonathan Taylor to move — “the Colts will move RB Jonathan Taylor before the deadline”
The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, and there's a good chance the Colts will move RB Jonathan Taylor before the deadline.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 10, 2026 Maxx Crosby to stay with Las Vegas Raiders
He isn't seeking or asking for a trade, and the Raiders aren't asking for or seeking offers... Nothing is imminent, nor is anything in the works at the time of this writing, but there is a market, there is interest, and that means in the NFL, it isn’t probable, but possible.
Jeremy Chinn to stay with Las Vegas Raiders
I think it would take at least a fifth-round pick for consideration, which I am unsure is possible, and a fourth would be a must for the Raiders. I don’t see that at all.
Kirk Cousins to stay with Las Vegas Raiders
With both of those goals on the table, while Cousins is certainly available for the right price, the Raiders are NOT shopping him, and there are no bargain deals for him.
Garrett Wilson to move — “not expected to be dealt; stays with the Jets”
The Jets have reportedly rebuffed Garrett Wilson trade interest : The Jets are not expected to deal their top wideout.
