NFL Trade Deadline tracker

The 2024 NFL Trade Deadline falls on election day, November 5th — but deals are already being made to improve rosters for contending teams, while simultaneously showing us which organizations are ready to punt on the season and rebuild.

This is the last best chance for teams to improve their rosters for playoff runs. The biggest position of need around the league is wide receiver, with lacking depth and injury causing a void where a large swath of teams with Super Bowl potential is in need of help at WR. That makes it a position to watch as we draw closer to November 5th.

Here is a full list of every trade that’s taken place ahead of the NFL deadline.

Cam Akers traded to Minnesota Vikings

Vikings receive: RB Cam Akers
Texans receive: Conditional 6th round pick (2025)

Minnesota are far more competitive than anyone gave them credit for before the season began, and this is a move to solidify their depth at running back. Aaron Jones has been fantastic for the Vikings, but the depth beyond that is iffy with Ty Chandler. Akers is a depth back who didn’t have a place in Houston.

Amari Cooper traded to Buffalo Bills

Bills receive: WR Amari Cooper, 6th round pick (2025)
Browns receiver: 3rd round pick (2025), 7th round pick (2026)

Cooper has largely been struggling in Cleveland this year, but the abominable play of Deshaun Watson has been a big factor in that. Now he gets a serious glow up to playing with Josh Allen on a team that could contend for the Super Bowl.

Davante Adams traded to New York Jets

Jets receive: WR Davante Adams
Raiders receive: 3rd round pick (2025) — Will improve to a 2nd round pick if Adams is named to an All-Pro team, or if Jets reach the AFC Championship game.

Aaron Rodgers gets his favorite target back on a Jets team that has boasted a stellar defense in 2024, but a horrific offense that simply can’t score. The hope is that Adams is the piece that allows more big plays, getting New York back on the right side of the ledger for a playoff push.

Roy Robertson-Harris traded to Seattle Seahawks

Seahawks receive: DT Roy Robertson-Harris
Jaguars receive: 6th round pick (2025)

Robertson-Harris became an odd fit in the Jaguars 4-3 defense, making the veteran defensive tackle expendable. Now he’ll fit in as a 5-technique DT on the Seahawks in a much better fit to seal the edge. The idea for Seattle is that the NFC West is wide open, which could lead to a playoff berth with a better line.
