Matt Bowen Jeremy Fowler Aaron Schatz Ben Solak Seth Walder Cameron Wolfe Field Yates are eight ESPN experts proposing trade deadline deals. The NFL trade deadline is three days away with major moves already completed. The Colts traded guard Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks and defensive tackle De Forest Buckner to the 49ers.
The Bears sent a package including two first-round picks to land Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons. J. J.
McCarthy went to the Giants and Jacoby Brissett joined the Ravens. With the 4 p.m. ET deadline approaching, experts pitch realistic offers for remaining players. Judy Battista proposes the Minnesota Vikings acquire RB Jonathan Taylor from the Indianapolis Colts using a package of 2027 second-round, third-round and fifth-round picks.
She argues the Vikings need Taylor's home run threat to pair with QB Kyler Murray's explosive rushing ability, as their offense has been stagnant despite Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Other experts propose deals for players including Pollard, Woolen, Brown, Downs, Ojomo, Suamataia and Taylor. Each expert outlines specific compensation and explains why the deals would benefit both teams ahead of Tuesday's deadline.
