Atlanta Falcons trade targets:
- Lamar Jackson, Quarterback
- Derrick Henry, Running Back
- Austin Ekeler, Running Back
- Montez Sweat, EDGE
- Quez Watkins, Wide Receiver
CBS Sports on why Lamar Jackson could get traded:
“No matter their mutual attraction from months past, Jackson and the Ravens are on shaky ground as the QB navigates free agency under the non-exclusive franchise tag. It's possible Baltimore could let the former MVP walk if another team actually makes Jackson an offer, receiving two first-rounders in return.But it's perhaps even more likely the Ravens would seek to move Jackson via a traditional trade; in that case, offers would likely begin at two first-rounders.”
Lamar Jackson Landing Spots according to CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin
- Indianapolis Colts
- Atlanta Falcons
- Detroit Lions
- Tennessee Titans

CBS Sports on why Derrick Henry could get traded:
“Whenever he's on the field, Henry carries Tennessee's offense; to this day, no one matches his combo of size (6-3, 245), speed and experience at the position. But he's topped 300 carries in three of his last four seasons, suffering a serious injury in between. In other words, the wear and tear is there. The Titans are in a rebuilding phase, or at least should be, and can save $6.3M by dealing the big man, who's entering a contract year.”
CBS Sports on why Austin Ekeler could get traded:
“Similar to Christian McCaffrey with his reliable high-volume pass catching, he's quite underpaid at $6.125M per year (13th among RBs) entering a contract year. The Chargers could gain $6.25M in savings should they deal him to a contender, however, and address the position with a handful of cheaper gambles.”

CBS Sports on why the Washington Commanders could trade Montez Sweat:
“In an ideal world, Sweat would build on a promising pass-rushing resume to earn a mega extension in Washington. But the Commanders are already paying top dollar to fellow D-linemen Daron Payne and Jonathan Allen, and Chase Young is also onboard. With 29 sacks in five seasons and a career-high 28 QB hits in 2022, he could fetch premium compensation (potentially for a future QB splash) even entering a contract year. His departure would also save Washington an immediate $11.5M.”
