Baltimore Ravens

  • LB Patrick Queen
  • QB Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Ravens handed a massive contract to 2022 trade acquisition Roquan Smith. They have Lamar Jackson’s situation to figure out. With other positions needing to be addressed, there’s no way Baltimore is going to have two linebackers as high-priced as Roquan Smith. With Queen’s long-term situation in Baltimore a question mark, he could very well be on the move.

And then of course, there’s the elephant in the room: Lamar Jackson. I just don’t see any trade happening there during the draft, but maybe. If I’m the Ravens, I might prefer 2024 NFL Draft capital anyway…

Cincinnati Bengals

  • OT Jonah Williams

After the Bengals acquired Orlando Brown Jr. in free agency, Jonah Williams requested a trade out of town. He apparently doesn’t want to play right tackle. The Bengals might need to draft their replacement right tackle before making a deal here, but teams that miss out in the first round might be willing to send something nice the Bengals’ way for the former first-rounder out of Alabama.

Cleveland Browns

  • RB Nick Chubb
  • CB Greg Newsome II

The Cleveland Browns don’t pick until no. 74 overall. They might be interested in getting back into the top two rounds of the draft and these two players could certainly help them do that.

Nick Chubb has been the subject of some non-substantive (so far) trade rumors this offseason, but you never know what’s being cooked up behind the scenes. Greg Newsome II, on the other hand, has been very vocal about trade rumors. Some were very strong in the direction of him wanting out of Cleveland, and others with Newsome himself recanting the request, stating he wants to stay in one place his whole career. We’ll see if the Browns hang onto him.
