2022 NFL trade deadline: One deal each team should make; 32 scenarios for buyers and sellers

The 2022 NFL trade deadline is fast approaching on Tuesday, November 1. Some teams are already in the “buyer” camp. Some, like the Panthers, have already been confirmed as sellers. . However, all 32 teams were able to make some adjustments.

With that in mind, there are 32 different trade possibilities. One potential addition or subtraction to every team.

sell: WR AJ Green

The former Pro Bowler never got much more than a late-round pick for his last-leg rental, but even with Marquise Brown out, DeAndre Hopkins is back at receiving co-op. No specific role. Arizona needs to get into the business of letting go rather than chasing aging starters.

buy: Raiders DE Claryn Ferrell

The price tag for the former first-rounder should be lower thanks to his dominating performance in Vegas, and while the Falcons are secretly competitive in the NFC South, they’re still sorely lacking in the pass rushing division. When things change, Clemson’s products could score modest deals and stay in Atlanta well into 2022 and beyond.

buy: Panthers WR DJ Moore

Carolina shouldn’t, and probably won’t, trade its number one target, but that doesn’t mean the Ravens shouldn’t try their boldest. In addition, he immediately gave Lamar Jackson the best all-around receiver of the MVP QB’s career, helping to widely propel an unstable aerial offense that lacked true alpha.

buy: Commander RB Antonio Gibson

They failed to land Christian McCaffrey, but Gibson would be a solid consolation prize as a double threat with that of Starting Caliber. In Washington still Brian Robinson Jr.’s 2 In the second role, he should be available as a plug-and-play complement to Devin Singletary. As a bonus, he is under contract until 2023.

sell: LB Shaq Thompson

They need to retain their young building blocks, including DJ Moore and Brian Barnes, but they have plenty of players on defense (see Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, and others). $1 million in 2023, the final year of his extension.

sell: LB Rokan Smith

Now that they’ve done what they should have done with Robert Quinn months ago, it’s time to auction off his running mate in the front seven, who was visibly saddened by Quinn’s departure Wednesday. Yes, Smith is the heart of their ‘D’, but he’s heading into 2023 free agency, perhaps ready for greener pastures, and even more for Chicago’s rebuilding. I’ll be sure to collect your luggage.

buy: Commander DT Daron Payne

Joe Burrow is on the rise, but their defense can use reinforcements up front. There, DJ Leader is out indefinitely and a banged-up Trey Hendrickson needs help from the edge. Adding pain doesn’t come cheap in terms of rewards or inevitable extensions. Also, they’ve already tied up a lot of money in his place, but can’t get deep enough into the trenches.

sell: RB Kareem Hunt

He’s an elite number two returnee, but it’s Nick Chubb’s show and Hunt is a de facto shoo-in to leave via free agency in 2023. With Durnest Johnson still leading as a capable complement as DeShawn Watson’s first year of betting spirals into a non-playoff season, they get a head start by adding picks must.

buy: Panthers DT Matt Ioannidis

A bigger splash would be fun for the American team, but what about a plug-and-play depth piece for the defensive front that could get help from the inside for a better playoff potential? , is entering a contract year in Carolina after a solid six years in Washington. As for rentals with experience, you could end up far worse.

sell: RB Melvin Gordon

Even after officially rejoining the starting line-up, he’s been ousted by Nathaniel Hackett’s lethargic offense. More importantly, he’s close to free agency, with his 29-year-old running his back. In other words, Denver should be willing to take whatever it can get for the Vet while preparing for potentially big postseason changes.

sell: RB Jamal Williams

The former Packers veteran brings some spice to the backfield and has more work to do with Dandle Swift injured, but he’s in the final year of his contract with the team and will be out of the competition for at least a year. There is little reason not to buy him. He will make great secondary works for his competitors.

buy: Texan WR Brandin Cooks

This is the second year in a row that Green Bay has named Cook as an ideal target, but Aaron Rodgers is desperate for a proven pass catcher, not to mention someone who can burst downfield. If the Broncos entertain the offer, Jerry Jeudy will be a more intriguing long-term play, while Cooks is a quick learner who can add instant speed to the Packers’ slump offense.

houston texans

sell: LB Kam Gurja Hill

Lovie Smith’s team has been relatively competitive in an ugly game, but the defense remains largely a sieve and Grugier-Hill offers some value to a team hungry to start experience at the position. We can provide. He’s athletic, but doesn’t justify their long-term investment and will be a free agent within the year.

sell: DE Yannick Ngakoue

It’s tempting to say Matt Ryan, whose battered body has been demoted to the bench indefinitely. Who says not? Ngakoue, on the other hand, is a contract year and used to being traded. And they were able to use every pick they could get for their upcoming QB makeover.

sell: WR Marvin Jones Jr.

Investing in the continued growth of Trevor Lawrence is paramount, and while Jones is a respected member of the restocked WR Corps, he is their fourth target midway through the final year of his contract. Yes, Christian Kirk and Zay Jones are locked into long-term roles. Doug Pederson can afford to auction him off and feed Travis Etienne more.

buy: Saints DE Cameron Jordan

All-time saints and perennial Pro Bowlers aren’t available without a big push, but if New Orleans is in dire need of both cash and picks, giving Chris Jones another relentless running mate would be a huge win. It will be worth the Chiefs’ effort… for their title bid. Although pricey, the Jordans would be a von Miller-esque addition in one fell swoop.

sell: S. Jonathan Abram

No one will pay a premium for a box safe approaching free agency, but Abram, 26, hasn’t made any long-term plans for a while…a banging role.

buy: Seahawks CB Sidney Jones

Big money starter JC Jackson will miss the season this year, threatening the depth of an already fragile corner of the defense. Michael Davis may be an experienced alternate opposite Asante Samuel Jr., but Jones, who lost the snap in Seattle, should at least give them some extra insurance as they fight to stay in the AFC West race. will give

buy: Patriots OT Isaiah Wynn

Wynn has struggled since being inactive for the New England squad on Monday and transitioning to right tackle, but he has the flexibility to play multiple spots and Matthew Stafford has more protection up front. Needs. With a Van Jefferson restoration and a possible Odell Beckham Jr. still in the second half, the O-line takes precedence. Pat should be happy to do business with Wynn in his contract year.

buy: Lions S DeShon Elliott

With safety Brandon Jones headed into injury reserve and corner Byron Jones still out, now is the time for Miami to beef up its back-end tier, especially if the Dolphins intend to stay in the AFC East Race. After four years in Baltimore, with a solid run in Detroit, the Lions should be keen to sell.

buy: Jets CB Bryce Hall

Hall, which may help Kevin O’Connell’s team progress to the next level, but falls on the depth chart mainly because the Jets’ defense is rising thanks to ‘Source’ Gardner, fills in more I will need it soon. Viking could find help in corners, especially slots, and he could be a long-term bet for Kwesi Adfo Mensah.

sell: WR Kendrick Bourne

Inactive on Mondays and regularly active on the fringe of a deep WR corps led by Jakobi Meyers and DeVante Parker, Bourne should appeal to candidates desperate for pass-catching help. He’s a reasonable contract and a versatile receiver. New England won’t give up on the year, but Nelson Agholor and Tycan Thornton are also in town, so Vaughn is expendable.

sell: WR Jarvis Landry

To be honest, they should be happy to accept an offer from anyone. Landry, who has a history of injuries and is approaching 30, is unlikely to command much, but his experience could draw interest from playoff hopefuls. He is unlikely to be counted on, and Chris Olave is the star of the position.

buy: Broncos WR Jerry Judy

Denver shouldn’t necessarily have an incentive to sell Judy just two years after being drafted 15th overall, but even if Bryan Daball doesn’t have a legitimate WR, he’s going to be a good choice for Daniel Jones. New York is on call duty now that he has proven he can lead and Squon Barkley. Consistent situational success. Jeudy quickly became their top pass his catcher and has the potential to be a long-term success.

sell: WR Denzel Mims

If you don’t use him, why keep him? The former second-rounder made his 2022 debut with Elijah Moore on the bench in Week 8, but his advantage as a downfield threat was better utilized elsewhere. Good. With Garrett Wilson and Corey Davis topping Depth’s charts, there’s little reason to extend his rookie deal with him for more than a year.

buy: Ravens S. Chuck Clarke

They’ve already added CJ Gardner-Johnson and Marcus Epps is a great complement on the backend. But while Gardner-Johnson is a ball-hawk, the Philadelphia native Clark can offer hard-hitting and blitz ability as a third safety on stretch runs. , is no longer an asset in Baltimore, where Marcus Williams and Kyle Hamilton are in town.

sell: QB Mason Rudolph

It’s Kenny Pickett’s age and Mitchell Trubisky is a solid emergency option behind him. need not stay there anymore.

sell: S. Tarvarius Moore

Between Talanoa Hufanga, Jimmie Ward and Tashaun Gipson, their defense is set on the back end. Meanwhile, Moore, a 2018 third-rounder who once drafted Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl, may help them regain the pick from a big deal for Christian McCaffrey.

buy: Bears LB Rocan Smith

Chicago would be hesitant to deal with the centerpiece of its defense, especially after leading a Patriots upset in primetime, but after failing to secure a long-term deal and demanding a transfer, it was forced to sell to Monsters via free agency. Heading into payday. Never afraid to swing big for a defensive star, Seattle could use a thumper for a potential surprise playoff run.

buy: Dolphins TE Mike Gesicki

Bucs’ problem is far more serious than personnel. They already have Tom Brady’s elite skill talent. Rob previously occupied by Gronkowski, his one spot missing in killer production, feels like a frontrunner to bolt Miami for better pass-catching opportunities. You’ll get a big boost in Gesitzki. 2023.

buy: Jets WR Elijah Moore

Their draft day bet to essentially trade AJ Brown for Treylon Burks has yet to pan out. become.

Washington Commanders

sell: CB Kendall Fuller

Or just about anyone. William Jackson III is another of his names touted as his tip in the trade, and he and Fuller are in the same boat.
