NFL Floats 10 Trade Deadline Deals as 27 Players Moved In-Season Last Year
3 articles · Updated · CBS Sports · Nov 8
Summary
Two days before the deadline, the latest trade watch centers on 10 proposed deals led by Derrick Henry to New England, Budda Baker to Buffalo and Kirk Cousins back to Minnesota.
The pitch reflects an already active market after Seattle added Quenton Nelson, San Francisco reacquired DeForest Buckner, Chicago landed Jeffery Simmons and Baltimore brought in Jacoby Brissett.
Buffalo's case is driven by a defense allowing 352.1 yards and 25.9 points per game, while Baker has 51 tackles, one interception and a career-high 3.5 sacks in eight games.
Henry is framed as a contender upgrade for the Patriots after posting 76.6 rushing yards per game and nine total touchdowns, with Baltimore portrayed as fading from the AFC race.
The speculation comes after 27 players were traded in-season in 2025 — the most in 25 years — including 12 moved on deadline day alone.
