Every trade and signing calls take
151–175 of 974
Byron Murphy to move to Seattle Seahawks
his option will obviously get picked up, and there's a good 99% chance he's extended when his time comes up. Expect that extension to carry him through 2032
Theo Benedet to move to Chicago Bears
Benedet isn't likely to receive an incentivized deal, but a $5 to $6 million deal isn't out of the question. It certainly is if he doesn't beat Jones out for the starting job, though. He'd be looking at a contract in the range of the one he signed this offseason (which is near-veteran minimum salary) if that comes to fruition.

Someone is likely to pick him up and give him a shot after his latest showing.
Sean Tucker to move to Tampa Bay Buccaneers
the Buccaneers may choose to rely on Irving and Gainwell "as their one-two punch" by releasing "the short-yardage and goal-line specialist" running back Sean Tucker in favor of second-year running back Josh Williams.
Dyami Brown to move to Washington Commanders
The Commanders will likely not get a lot in return, but a late-round pick, or even a decent pick swap or decent interior line help, would be better than just cutting him.
Jordan Magee to move to Washington Commanders
If Peters gets the sense another club would claim or pursue Magee after cuts, it makes more sense to explore a trade before giving that team the chance to get him for free.
Cole Kmet to move to Chicago Bears
Sam Roush could hasten the departure of one Bears veteran ... If his development continues at this pace, he could even force the Bears into a tough conversation regarding veteran Cole Kmet's future with the franchise.
Tyler Steen to move to Philadelphia Eagles
If Steen continues on this trajectory, he will be in line for a significant contract extension whether with the Eagles or elsewhere.
Lane Johnson to move to Philadelphia Eagles
Lane Johnson took a week away to ponder his future (this will more than likely be his last season)
Odell Beckham Jr. to move — “could be released this weekend”
we also decided to take a look at 20 big names that could be released this weekend. The list includes Odell Beckham Jr.
J.J. McCarthy to move to Minnesota Vikings
Vikings QB: JJ McCarthy. ... McCarthy's overall potential might be enough to compel a team to make an offer to the Vikings for his services
J.J. McCarthy to move to Minnesota Vikings
NOTE: Even if he doesn't get traded, Tyler Sullivan still thinks the McCarthy is done in Minnesota and he explained why here
Josh Sweat to move to Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals EDGE Josh Sweat. ... there would be a large market for Sweat if the Cardinals decided to put him on the market.
Joey Porter Jr. to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. ... Pittsburgh general manager Omar Kahn has made several surprising player transactions in the past.

J.J. McCarthy to move to Minnesota Vikings
A split between J.J. McCarthy and the Vikings seems almost inevitable at this point .

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Aug 27, 2026 Kayvon Thibodeaux to move to New York Giants
It may also help compel a team to make a run at acquiring him before Week 1.
Anthony Richardson to move to Buffalo Bills
Richardson could be a good addition for a team that needs to strengthen its quarterback depth. The Bills could be a potential trade option, where Richardson would get to play behind and learn from former league MVP Josh Allen.
Joey Porter Jr. to move to Pittsburgh Steelers
Khan could do so now with Porter if a team is willing to give the Steelers some considerable capital in exchange for one of the NFL's top young cornerbacks.
J.J. McCarthy to move to Minnesota Vikings
McCarthy's overall potential might be enough to compel a team to make an offer to the Vikings for his services, more than likely as a backup.
