As the 2024 NFL trade deadline approaches, many teams are looking to strengthen their rosters. The deadline is set for 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Nov. 5, and so far, there have been several notable trades that could impact the playoff landscape.
The Buffalo Bills made a significant move by acquiring wide receiver Amari Cooper from the Cleveland Browns. This trade brings a true No. 1 receiver to support quarterback Josh Allen as they push for the top spot in the AFC. The Bills received Cooper along with a 2025 sixth-round draft pick in exchange for a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 seventh-round pick. Analysts are already discussing how this addition could enhance the team’s offense.
In a major deal the next day, the New York Jets secured wide receiver Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders. The trade is for a conditional third-round pick that could potentially convert into a second-round pick. With the Jets taking on Adams’ salary, this addition strengthens their receiving corps significantly, giving them a better chance at playoff contention.
Additionally, the Seattle Seahawks made a move to improve their defensive line by acquiring defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris from the Jacksonville Jaguars. To get him, Seattle is sending a 2026 sixth-round pick to Jacksonville, bolstering a unit that has struggled recently.
Another notable trade involved the Minnesota Vikings, who re-acquired running back Cam Akers from the Houston Texans. This marks Akers’ second stint with Minnesota, as the teams swapped conditional draft picks.
As the trade deadline nears, speculation continues about other possible moves. Carolina’s wide receiver Diontae Johnson is a name being tossed around, but team leadership is not keen on making any deals. As teams analyze their needs, the coming days will be crucial in shaping the remainder of the NFL season.
