The NFL trade deadline arrives November 10, and contenders are already circling. Joey Porter Jr. and Marvin Harrison Jr. have switched teams, but bigger names could still move.
DraftKings lists eight true contenders with sub-+2000 odds: the 49ers, Rams, Bills, Ravens, Chiefs, Seahawks, Jaguars and Bengals.
The 49ers need receiver depth with injuries piling up. Jauan Jennings knows Kyle Shanahan's system and is not playing much in Minnesota.
Buffalo's slot corner is a problem. Dee Alford has allowed 12 of 17 completions for 197 yards inside, per PFF. The Chargers' Elijah Still has held opponents to 7 of 12 for 53 scoreless yards in the slot.
Kansas City lost Tyquan Thornton to injury and lacks a deep threat. Jacksonville's Brian Thomas Jr. has played under 62% of snaps this season with Josh Cameron emerging.
Seattle cannot run the ball. Tony Pollard has four straight 1,000-yard seasons and would upgrade their backfield.
The Jaguars' defense needs safety help. Arizona's Budda Baker, with two years left on his deal, would elevate Jacksonville immediately.
Baltimore's pressure rate sits at 35.1%, 20th in the NFL per Tru Media. Khalil Mack could help there.
Cincinnati bolstered its front seven and safety spot, but corner depth behind DJ Turner II remains a concern.
Mickey's Angle: Contenders with clear positional holes—Buffalo's slot, Kansas City's speed, Jacksonville's safety—offer the cleanest betting narratives if they land their targets.
