NFL Trade Deadline 2018: One deal each team should make
NFL trades have become much more common lately, and it’s a great thing. Here we look at a deal each team should make prior to the 2018 NFL Trade Deadline.
In the last few years, the NFL Trade Deadline has been more active than ever. From the most boring deadline in sports, to one of the most active, the NFL’s favorite Tuesday has become a must-see spectacle. Not as must-see as the NFL Draft, of course, but it’s actually almost getting there.
Thus, NFL fans everywhere are hopeful for their team to nab one of the biggest fish in the football pond. Well, either that, or they’re hoping to collect picks and ammunition to rule the draft boards come April.
This year, more than a few big names seem to be up for grabs, for the right price. Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson and New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. are two huge names being thrown around in trade talks. Everyone’s got a price these days, and with the way the NFL is trending, this isn’t going away any time soon.
Of course, there are more likely trades to be made. Minor moves might not be as eye-catching for the NFL, but one piece can be all the difference for a team on the brink. Mortgage the future in favor of embracing the now? Or keep trade chips in case of the future? All these questions will be answered by 4:00 p.m. ET on Oct. 30.
So, what are the moves, major or minor, that should be made? Let’s take a look at one deal each team should pull the trigger on before the deadline.
