    NFL trade deadline 2024: Track the deals

    Seren Anwen Posted on

    The NFL trade deadline ends at 3pm CT, so I’m preparing for an onslaught of deals.

    Sure, the Chicago Bears have already made one. However, I can’t help but think that general manager Ryan Poles wants to do more besides trading running back Khalil Herbert. In the meantime, here is a summary of the trades that have taken place so far.

    NFL trade deadline postponement (2024)

  • The Baltimore Ravens signed cornerback Tre’Davious White in a trade with the Los Angeles Rams – NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero reports that Baltimore is bringing in Tre’Davious White, a two-time Pro Bowl cornerback, for the reported price of a seventh-round pick in 2027. My goodness. White was voted first-team All-Pro in 2019 and has been one of the NFL’s best cornerbacks since entering the league in 2017. White was a first-round pick of the Buffalo Bills in 2017. With the Rams, perhaps a change of scenery and a move to Baltimore will get him back on track. Sometimes it takes a big move – be it across town or across the country – to really get things moving again.
  • The Green Bay Packers are sending pass rusher Preston Smith to the Pittsburgh Steelers – ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that Smith, who is having a down year with the Packers (just 2.5 sacks in 9 games), is a seventh-round pick going from Pittsburgh to Green Bay. Smith racked up 25.5 sacks, 22 tackles-for-loss and 58 quarterback hits in 50 games from 2021-23. He even had a 12-sack season for Green Bay in 2019. Pittsburgh will be looking for the 31-year-old defensive end to recapture the Magic.

  • The Pittsburgh Steelers acquire wide receiver Mike Williams from the New York Jets – Just weeks after the Steelers beat the Jets on Sunday Night Football, Pittsburgh acquires one of New York’s wide receivers. Mike Williams’ presence was unnecessary after the Jets traded for Davante Adams. But one team’s afterthought is another’s dream addition. Williams, 30, has two 1,000-yard seasons. Unfortunately for him, Aaron Rodgers was never able to connect with the wide receiver. Maybe they should have retreated into the darkness together. NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reports that a fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft will be traded to the Jets.
  • The New Orleans Saints are trading cornerback Marshon Lattimore to the Washington Commanders – Marshon Lattimore goes from a 2-7 Saints team in desperate need of a hard reset to a 7-2 Commanders team that continues to rack up wins. It must be nice to have a general manager bolstering a team in the midst of the playoff chase.

    • Selected 11th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft, Lattimore has earned four Pro Bowl nods en route to building a reputation as one of the league’s best shutdown corners. The Commanders will need him to be the man in Washington when big games come later in the year.

  • Dallas Cowboys sign wide receiver Jonathan Mingo in trade with the Carolina Panthers – Jerry Jones making an unexpected trade should have been expected (if only because Jerry’s unpredictability is incredibly predictable). Still… the Cowboys shipping out a fourth-round pick (h/t ESPN’s Todd Archer) for a struggling Mingo means they traded more to get him than they did when they traded Amari a few years ago Cooper was traded to the Cleveland Browns. The Cowboys are in a strange position and I don’t envy this franchise one bit. They are chaotic.
  • Detroit Lions trade Za’Darius Smith in deal with Cleveland Browns — It’s official in Detroit:
  • We wrote about Za’Darius Smith’s return to the NFC North this morning when news of the trade broke. Don’t get me wrong. Smith is a menacing pass rusher and one of the best the NFL has to offer. However, I can imagine quarterbacks in this division breathing a sigh of relief that the Browns didn’t send Myles Garrett to the Lions.
