Every trade and signing calls take
176–200 of 1,043
Dante Fowler Jr. to move to Seattle Seahawks
Uchenna Nwosu and Dante Fowler Jr are both free agents in March, so there’s a decent chance both are gone for 2027 as well.
DJ Turner II to move to Cincinnati Bengals
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler noted on Wednesday that Cincinnati likely won't get anything done with Turner, while it doesn't seem like anything is close with Hill.
Lamar Jackson to move to Baltimore Ravens
now the franchise is on the cusp of Jackson possibly playing out a lame-duck season ... the QB seems perfectly inclined to pocket that $50M for this season and call his shot in 2027
Jacoby Brissett to move — “wearing another decal on his helmet by midseason”
because I fully expect Brissette to be wearing another, uh, decal on his helmet. Sure. By mid season
Braxton Jones to move to Chicago Bears
Yes, it'll eventually be his job, and Jones is certainly playing out his final year in the Windy City (although we admittedly said that last year).
Bobby Wagner to move — “sign with a new team right before the season”
Bobby Wagner, now 36, was always going to sign with a new team right before the season. It's time.
Maxx Crosby to move — “gets traded again before the deadline”
He might even get traded again before the deadline.
Joey Porter Jr. to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
For now, though, it sure looks and feels like Porter Jr.'s hold-in will continue.
Bobby Okereke to move to Carolina Panthers
Bobby Okereke will join once his contract is official.
Deshaun Watson to move to Cleveland Browns
Even if Watson played well this season, there is no way the Browns would re-sign him after finally getting out from under the disastrous, five-year, $230 million, fully guaranteed contract they gave him.
Dillon Bell to move — “there's a chance he does get claimed in the coming days”
Unlike Brosmer, though, Bell may attract some significant attention, and there's a chance he does get claimed in the coming days.
Decamerion Richardson to move — “some team might claim him on waivers”
some team that wants a special teams contributor who can add depth in the secondary might claim him on waivers
Anthony Richardson to move to Indianapolis Colts
Perhaps if some other team loses a quarterback in the final days before the start of the season, then he gets his trade, but otherwise, he'll be sticking it out for the final year of his rookie contract.
Christian Gonzalez to move to New England Patriots
I I can't imagine they don't they don't figure something.
Christian Gonzalez to move to New England Patriots
I'm retortless other than to say it's just it'll it'll get done.
Aaron Donald to move — “He's gonna play at least two years in Los Angeles”
Not gonna be his only comeback season with the Rams. Everyone thinks it's just for this year. Uh-uh. He's gonna play at least two years Okay. In Los Angeles.
Jaydon Blue to move — “claimed off waivers by another team”
That could lead to Blue being claimed
Sam Williams to move — “fresh start elsewhere, possibly another team's practice squad”
Williams would be best served to look for a fresh start elsewhere, and he's flashed enough potential to earn that, even if he has to begin on another team's practice squad.
Braiden McGregor to move to New York Jets
players who celebrated making the team could very well pack their bags 48 hours later. Do not be surprised if McGregor is that player.

Tyreek Hill to move to Washington Commanders
I predict they'll take a flier on Diggs, Tyreek Hill and DeAndre Hopkins (currently a WR coach at Georgia Tech) by season's end.

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 31, 2026 Will Levis to move — “claimed on waivers”
Tennessee cut Will Levis loose, and he'll almost certainly be claimed on waivers, but the teams that miss out on him and others they can get for free might give up a future draft pick to add a QB4
Gardner Minshew to move to Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals were always going to carry three quarterbacks on the active roster – at least for now. There's a possibility Gardner Minshew is traded near the trade deadline.
