Five players we could see getting dealt before or during the Draft
Every year players are traded before and during the NFL Draft, and we found five players we could see being dealt before the draft. Let’s get started!
Leonard Fournette – RB – Jaguars – Leonard Fournette ended the season on a bad note with the Jaguars and then he was arrested last week. The Jaguars have to be about sick of Fournette’s antics. I could see the Jaguars trading him for little to nothing just to rid themselves of a headache.
Andy Dalton – QB – Cincinnati Bengals – The Bengals have been looking at quarterbacks and this league is a QB driven league. Right now, if new coach Zac Taylor does in fact want to draft a QB then Dalton becomes expendable.
Cameron Brate – TE – Tampa Bay Buccaneers – The Jameis Winston security blanket could be sent off and imagine Tom Brady landing a Brate after losing Gronkowski. The trade makes sense and it could land the Buccaneers and additional draft pick.
Vic Beasley – DE – Atlanta Falcons – The Atlanta Falcons are paying him 12.8 million dollars. He just has not lived up to his 2016 season. Atlanta should move on and try to find another cornerstone pass rusher in the upcoming draft.
Emmanuel Sanders – WR – Denver Broncos – Sanders was having a nice bounce-back year before injuring his Achilles. Now he’s 31, coming off a major injury and carrying a cap savings of 10.25 million dollars. I could see the Broncos moving on before or during the draft.
