If you don’t like the lyrics you can press fast forward.

Trade deadline came, trade deadline went. The Cowboys stood ten toes down, literally. Despite a ton of hype that was injected into the fan base when owner Jerry Jones hinted he was more than ready to give up some future draft capital to win now, Dallas didn’t take part in the most active trade deadline day in league history. In fact, not only did the Cowboys not add anyone, but they decided to move away from someone, releasing 2019 second-round pick Trysten Hill. Meanwhile, 15 different teams were involved in draft-day trades.

 

Calvin Ridley trade grades: Who won the deal between the Jaguars and Falcons?

Calvin Ridley doesn’t help the Jaguars in 2022. But he could be the WR1 Trevor Lawrence needs in 2023 and beyond.

Calvin Ridley wasn’t long for Atlanta. The Falcons’ All-Pro wide receiver sat out the bulk of 2021 while dealing with personal issues. Months later, he was suspended indefinitely — but for at least the entirety of the 2022 regular season — for betting on NFL games.

This tainted the value of a player who’d emerged as one of the league’s most valuable young wideouts. It didn’t make him untradeable. With an hour to go before the league deadline, he was dealt to the Jacksonville Jaguars — a team he’d bet against in one of the parlays that brought down NFL discipline — for conditional draft picks that could, at most, be worth a 2023 fifth-round pick and a 2024 second-rounder.

That’s a calculated gamble from a Falcons team with little to lose and a Jaguars offense that has been hamstrung in recent weeks by its lack of a true top wideout. So who got the better end of this deal?

One player each NFL team could trade before the deadline, from Chase Claypool to Melvin Gordon

Ahead of the NFL trade deadline, here are some players who could be on the move, including Chase Claypool, Melvin Gordon and Elijah Moore.

The NFL’s trade deadline is fast approaching, and there have already been some players on the move. That includes the Carolina Panthers recently dealing running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers and receiver Robbie Anderson to the Arizona Cardinals.

There are a number of contending teams that could be looking to shore up an area of weakness as they aim to make a postseason run. Not to mention, there are a number of struggling teams looking to sell some big-name players to acquire additional draft capital.

Ahead of the Nov. 1 deadline, let’s look at some other players who might be on the move, with one from every NFL team, as assembled by our NFL Wires staff.
