With the NFL draft done, it may feel like the 2026 offseason is over. Free agency is approaching the two-month mark, and teams are now focused on signing draft prospects instead of scouting them.
The trade market, however, is open and humming along. We saw that during the draft, as the Minnesota Vikings dealt former Pro Bowler Jonathan Greenard, and the Las Vegas Raiders moved 2023 seventh overall pick Tyree Wilson.
In fact, trade activity often picks up after the draft, when teams are prepared to offload expensive contracts in favor of cheap rookie talent.
Here, you’ll find our updated list of offseason trade targets, ranked based on upside, past production, positional value, contract status, likely availability, projected price point, recent roster changes, and any relevant buzz.
We’ll weigh the value and likelihood of being traded equally against overall talent, identify potential suitors based primarily on team needs, and project trade values based on factors such as position, player upside, player age, and any comparable deals.
