Marked on every NFL front office calendar, the November 4 trade deadline is just around the corner, a day when we might see some league-altering deals that shake up our fantasy football rosters.
It might also alter your approach to building your PrizePicks Lineup, making it nearly as important to you as what's going on inside the head of your favorite team's General Manager.
Here are seven stars (or semi-stars) whose names have been bandied about in Rumor Land and have us asking, When is the NFL trade deadline?
When Is the NFL Trade Deadline? And Who's on The Block?
Saints RB Alvin Kamara
The veteran back has made his stance clear: He’s not interested in being moved.
When asked about the possibility, he said, “If I was a GM, I guess I would go to the player and say, 'Hey, we're trading you, just so you know.' So if [Saints GM] Mickey [Loomis] comes down and says that, I'm going to go drink a piña colada somewhere.”
There’ve been some rumors about him possibly joining a Super Bowl contender like the Kansas City Chiefs, which might be enough to keep him from retiring if he gets traded out of New Orleans.
Raiders DE Maxx Crosby
The Dallas Cowboys have reportedly shown interest in Crosby, seeing him as a superstar who could step in after moving on from LB Micah Parsons this offseason. And if the deal goes through, don't be surprised if Cowboys owner Jerry Jones will call it a masterclass and insist it was part of his plan all along.
Jets RB Breece Hall
The Chargers running back room is a veritable hospital ward — Najee Harris is out for the season and Omarion Hampton will be sidelined for a significant stretch — so L.A. may look to make a move and Breece Hall could be the guy. He’s in the final year of his rookie contract, with an affordable $3.4 million salary and a $4.3 million cap hit.
And take this how you will, but a recent Instagram post said “#Free20,” a clear reference to his jersey number.
Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers
Jakobi Meyers was disgruntled with the Las Vegas Raiders before the season even kicked off.
The Pittsburgh Steelers make the most sense as a landing spot for the vet, as they were uncharacteristically active this offseason and still need a dependable pass catcher to pair with WR DK Metcalf.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle
The Miami Dolphins are fading fast, and you have to wonder if Jaylen Waddle is looking for the lifeboat before things sink.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills are in desperate need of a true WR1. Their current WR group contains Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, and Joshua Palmer, none of whom have topped 250 yards through the first seven weeks.
Waddle could step in immediately and give Josh Allen the dynamic, reliable target he needs to get the Bills — losers of two in a row — back on track.
Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson
Rumors are swirling around Trey Hendrickson, but he's currently injured, 30-years-old, and carrying a one-year, $29 million contract. If a trade does happen, don’t be surprised if the Philadelphia Eagles are in the mix. The Bengals are asking for a young player and mid-round pick, which may not be worth the investment.
Saints WR Chris Olave
The New England Patriots are still searching for a true No. 1 receiver and Chris Olave’s future in New Orleans is looking uncertain. Can't you imagine Pats QB Drake Maye having fun with the former Ohio State star?
