NFL scouting marks an unofficial start to the 2025 season, with trade rumors starting from there. Indianapolis acts as an incubator for trading. It’s natural for everyone to talk about the store, with so many team executives in one place. You can watch potential stars in upcoming drafts and teams, and start shaping draft boards, or at least narrow your targets. That is, picks begin to be coveted in a concrete way.
There are several big names in the market in 2025, and there are deals that are too meaningless.
Miles Garrett of the Minnesota Vikings
There’s no shortage of teams doing the Browns’ pass rush Miles Garrett deals, but the Vikings make all the factors involved, too.
Minnesota ranked fifth in the NFL last season thanks to the monster season of Jonathan Greenode and Andrew Van Ginkel, but anyone who has seen this team play would have an individual greatness. Not knowing that the majority of the pressure was manufactured according to the brilliance of the scheme.
The Vikings’ advance will be a dominant defensive team that can lean against Brian Flores’ brilliance and put pressure on JJ McCarthy, assuming they are the starter in 2025. The Viking system, where his athletic abilities and all abilities become Flores’ ultimate weapon.
Away from the field, this deal also makes a lot of sense. The Vikings have an incredible amount of cap rooms to play, assets in the form of draft picks, and young players like Jordan Addison and Dara Sterner who could hang in the trade. With the fact that Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah served as VP of the Browns’ soccer OPS, you have the familiarity you need to get the deal done.
If Cleveland breaks down and respects Garrett’s trade demands, the Vikings are too obvious to land.
Coop p to the Pittsburgh Steelers
It’s no secret that Pittsburgh is in another WR market. The Kup will have a really solid fit alongside the George Pickens.
There is a lot of uncertainty in Pittsburgh’s quarterback position, but Kupp is basically a plug-and-play receiver that can be meshed for any situation. This is a move that allows the Steelers to fill the required WR gap without investing in draft capital that they can spend in other positions.
The move also gives the 31-year-old receiver a legitimate opportunity to compete with the playoff team, and it appears to be in the Rams spirit when he approaches players. This could work well if Pittsburgh made the right choice in QB.
Matthew Stafford of the Tennessee Titans
From a soccer perspective, there are meaningful transactions, some of which depend on business. At this point, Titan is thinking more about the latter. If the former works well, it has more power.
Tennessee is giving Titans the largest taxpayer subsidies in the history of sports to build a new stadium for their teams, and the annual mediocre ones aren’t going to cut it down. It’s in Titan’s winning mode and in Soft AFC South you can quickly turn things around.
Stafford’s trading goal is not to win a Super Bowl like his deal with the Rams, but to stabilize the ship. It’s clear that Levis is not a man. This is no. It’s a bad draft to get a quarterback with an overall pick of 1. .
Stafford is 37 years old. Realistically, he has two, perhaps three years’ top. That allowed him to reunite with Brian Callahan (who was Detroit’s QB coach in 2016 and 2017), transforming Titan into a team of over 0.500 and opening the team in 2027 to the sunset. I’ll ride it. The team then needs to be in a position to develop succession plans to move forward in QB. Stafford is the jump start they need.
Davante Adams to Washington Commander
In hell, there is no way for Davante Adams to stick with the Jets at this point in his career. It was a mess for him since he left Green Bay. And he wasn’t chasing Aaron Rodgers into New York. Currently, the course revisions are available at Aarongren.
The Commander is a great landing spot for Adams because of the cap space, competitive ability and the opportunities they offer as players. With two years of deal remaining, he has to run to see another deal, and is under attack by Kliff Kingsbury with Jayden Daniels and Terry McClaurin.
Washington already boasted one of the most explosive and deep threats in the NFL last season, but it is clear that he has not received any weapons other than McClaurin as the commander transformed from a regeneration project into a legal candidate It’s become.
Adams allows the attack to take the next step. The commander must continue to pour gas into this fire and see how far it goes.
Devosa Muel to the Carolina Panthers
There are many places Samuel can go, but in the above scenario he finds himself looking for many potential landing sites, but the Carolina is a really good fit.
The Panthers need receiver help. It’s trendy to ock the wide receiver with the pick of No. 8, but despite filling countless holes, they’ll need to take a back-to-back receiver with their top pick. Tackling WR and giving Bryce a younger stylist, the Panthers can find a pass rusher in the draft and move Adam Thieren into the slot.
The team loves players with local roots, and the native and former gamecock in South Carolina fits the bill. What’s more, he is the perfect mentor to the heir, Xavier Leggett, another former game cock who boasts a big body similar to Samuel, and a playstyle of everything.
Sprinkling the fact that there is a solid trade history between the Niners and Panthers, this transaction makes a lot of sense for both teams.
