With another week of NFL action completed, we may finally be getting a handle on which teams are good, which are not, and where some of the biggest needs reside.

We're also inching ever closer to the November 5 trade deadline. Between now and then, we're likely to see quite a bit of movement on the trade market.

While the NFL trade deadline has been quieter traditionally than in other pro leagues, we've seen more activity in recent years. With the cutoff date being pushed back another week in 2024—it'll fall after Week 9 this year—we could see the most active deadline to date.

While it's still too early to know exactly who will be on the move a month from now, it's not too early to identify logical candidates.

Here, you'll find our 10 top trade targets entering Week 5, based on factors such as player upside, past production, positional value, contract status and any relevant recent buzz.

The Selection Process

Each week, we begin the board-building process by examining 15 players who have already been the focus of trade buzz or who would be logical trade candidates due to contract status, roster situations and/or team outlook.

Legitimate contenders won't be trading any key contributors, regardless of other factors.

Those players are then ranked based on past production, upside, positional value and the likelihood of being traded to reach our top 10.

New to the list this week are Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Devin White and Las Vegas Raiders receiver Davante Adams.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Raiders have informed teams that they would consider trading Adams for a "package that would include a second-round pick and additional compensation."

White has yet to see the field for Philadelphia and was listed as inactive for Week 4 for personal reasons.

To make room, we've removed Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders—whose trade value continues to dwindle—and Indianapolis Colts linebacker E.J. Speed. The Colts picked up their second win of the season on Sunday, which reduces the likelihood they'll be interested in moving a key defender.

Our Week 5 honorable mentions, in no particular order, are:

• Daniel Brunskill, OL, Tennessee Titans
• Harrison Bryant, TE, Las Vegas Raiders
• D.J. Jones, DT, Denver Broncos
  
• Treylon Burks, WR, Tennessee Titans
• Russell Wilson, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers
  

10. Devin White, LB, Philadelphia Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles signed linebacker Devin White to a one-year, $4 million contract this offseason, but they have yet to make him active for a game.

His inclusion on our list is a simple case of "if they're not going to use him, why not trade him?"

The unknown here is just how valuable White can be at this point in his career. He saw a reduced role with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers toward the end of last season and hasn't been a Pro Bowler since the 2021 season.

After sitting for the first month of his 2024 campaign, the 26-year-old may not be ready to jump right back into a starting role.

That said, White is a former Pro Bowler (and a second-team All-Pro in 2020) with 75 starts, 23 sacks and six forced fumbles on his resume.

A trade back to Tampa could make some sense, given his familiarity with the defensive scheme and the Bucs' struggles against the run. They have allowed an average of 5.0 yards per carry through the first four weeks.

White could also be an option for the Jacksonville Jaguars, who recently placed Foyesade Oluokun on injured reserve with a foot injury.

The winless Jags probably won't be buyers at the deadline if they don't turn things around quickly, but a spirited performance against the Houston Texans in Week 4 does provide some hope.

Potential Suitors: Jacksonville Jaguars, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

9. Bryce Young, QB, Carolina Panthers

If the Panthers are truly done with 2023 first overall pick Bryce Young, they'll likely look to get him out of the building sooner than later. For now, though, an offseason trade feels more likely than an in-season move.

"Although the Panthers have said they don't plan to trade Young at this time, sources around the league believe it is only a matter of time before Carolina completes a deal involving the second-year quarterback -- with the most likely time coming at some point in the offseason," ESPN's Adam Schefter wrote on September 21.

Carolina could, and probably should, give the 23-year-old another chance to play this season for evaluation purposes. The last thing the Panthers will want is to abandon the Alabama product early only to see him have a resurgence elsewhere, a la Sam Darnold or Baker Mayfield.

If a strong offer comes in before the deadline, though, Carolina could be tempted to make a deal.

The New York Jets could pursue Young as a potential successor to the 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers—they're certainly not dealing for the next player on our list.

The Los Angeles Rams are in a similar position with 36-year-old Matthew Stafford and could look to add a possible heir on the cheap—they did, after all, take a flier on Mayfield a couple of years ago.

Potential Suitors: Los Angeles Rams, New York Jets

8. Zach Wilson, QB, Denver Broncos

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix hasn't played particularly well this season.

However, he has won each of his last two starts, and the longer the Broncos remain competitive with the rookie under center, the less likely it is that third-string quarterback Zach Wilson will see the field.

The 2021 No. 2 pick has dropped a couple of spots because he isn't the only logical trade candidate at his position, but he tops our list of quarterbacks because of his combination of youth and experience.

While Wilson hasn't played at a high level in the NFL, he has started 33 games. This makes him a better potential bridge/spot-starter than Young. He's also just 25 years old, which gives him more long-term value than Russell Wilson.

The caveat with the latter point is that the veteran will be a free agent in 2025.

Still, Zach Wilson could be an option for multiple teams, regardless of whether they're seeking a short-or long-term solution.

The Rams, as mentioned, could take a flier on a young quarterback as they work out a succession plan behind Stafford. The Jets, on the other hand, aren't going to want Wilson back.

The BYU product could also be a sensible target for the New York Giants, who have seen exactly one good game out of Daniel Jones this season and still don't know if he can be their future.

Potential Suitors: Los Angeles Rams, New York Giants

7. Darius Slayton, WR, New York Giants

Wideout Darius Slayton had his best statistical game of the season against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, finishing with three receptions for 56 yards.

While the New York Giants can't really afford to tear down Daniel Jones' supporting cast, Slayton's long-term outlook remains cloudy.

The 27-year-old is likely less of a long-term building block than younger New York receivers Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt.

Slayton, who is entering the final year of his contract, is a proven contributor at the NFL level. He's been one of New York's more reliable pass-catchers since his 2019 rookie campaign, and he has topped 700 receiving yards in four of the past five seasons.

The Arizona Cardinals might want to consider the Auburn product if they're interested in salvaging their 1-3 start to the season. They have found a No. 1 receiver in rookie Marvin Harrison Jr., but they lack reliable depth at the position—with all due respect to Greg Dortch.

The Kansas City Chiefs should also be in the receiver market after top target Rashee Rice suffered a knee injury in Week 4.

According to Schefter, the 24-year-old "is feared" to have suffered a torn ACL. Slayton wouldn't outright replace him, but he could provide depth for Kansas City, which also has Marquise Brown on injured reserve.

Potential Suitors: Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs

6. Budda Baker, S, Arizona Cardinals

If the Cardinals aren't able to turn things around before the trade deadline, standout safety Budda Baker will become a logical trade chip.

The 28-year-old is entering the final year of his contract and has been the subject of trade chatter ever since he requested a trade during the 2023 offseason before settling for a revised contract instead.

Baker would undoubtedly bring the Cardinals a strong return. He's a six-time Pro Bowler who can provide positional versatility at safety and is still playing at a high level.

So far this season, the Washington product has tallied 39 tackles and three tackles for a loss—though with a 121.5 opposing passer rating, he hasn't been as reliable in coverage.

The Eagles could be interested, given their ongoing struggles in the secondary. Philadelphia worked to upgrade its defense in the offseason but has seen mixed results. C.J. Gardner-Johnson, for example, has surrendered three receiving touchdowns in four games and has an opposing passer rating of 153.3.

The Detroit Lions could be interested in Baker as well. They are chasing a title and recently placed safety Ifeatu Melifonwu on injured reserve with an ankle/Achilles injury.

Melifonwu hasn't played yet this season, and the Lions have a solid safety tandem in Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph, but it's not hard to envision them finding room for Baker in their secondary rotation.

Potential Suitors: Detroit Lions, Philadelphia Eagles

5. Robert Woods, WR, Houston Texans

Houston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods will continue to rank high on our list for as long as he remains an afterthought in their offense.

The Texans didn't have Tank Dell (chest) against the rival Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4. Yet, Woods still only saw three targets in a game in which C.J. Stroud attempted 40 passes.

Woods played a season-high 72 percent of the offensive snaps against Jacksonville but finished with just one reception for 10 yards. He's caught three passes for 28 yards on five targets in 2024.

Houston can save $6.5 million in 2024 cap space by trading the 32-year-old, and it could flip him for a player it would actually use.

The Rams remain a logical landing spot for Woods because of their need at the position and his experience with the franchise. Puka Nacua is still on injured reserve, while Cooper Kupp continues to be sidelined by an ankle injury.

Woods previously spent five seasons in Los Angeles.

Like Slayton, Woods wouldn't fill Kansas City's need for a No. 1 receiver., but he could give Patrick Mahomes a capable and experienced target on the perimeter, where the Chiefs suddenly lack depth in a big way.

Potential Landing Spots: Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams

4. Amari Cooper, WR, Cleveland Browns

Trading for Browns receiver Amari Cooper would give the Chiefs the No. 1 target they'll lack with Rice sidelined.

Cooper has been a productive and largely reliable receiver at every stop—he played for the Raiders and Cowboys before joining Cleveland—and he's coming off of a 1,250-yard campaign.

The Browns have also made the five-time Pro Bowler an affordable option by restructuring the final year of his contract. Under the new terms, he carries a base salary of just $1.2 million this season.

The 30-year-old has jumped up our list for a couple of reasons. For one, the injury-plagued Browns fell to 1-3 on Sunday, and their chances of turning things around appear slim.

Secondly, things simply aren't clicking between Cooper and Deshaun Watson this season. The receiver has topped 40 receiving yards only once, and he's already been credited with six drops through four games. He had another big one during Sunday's loss in Las Vegas that turned into a Raiders interception.

The Washington Commanders may also want to inquire about Cooper after they host the Browns this weekend.

Washington is building an exciting offense around rookie sensation Jayden Daniels. Part of the plan has involved surrounding the quarterback with seasoned veterans like Austin Ekeler and Zach Ertz. Adding Cooper would follow that plan and give Daniels another top-tier target opposite Terry McLaurin.

Potential Suitors: Kansas City Chiefs, Washington Commanders

3. Azeez Ojulari, Edge, New York Giants

New York's Week 4 loss to the Cowboys pretty much erased any momentum the team obtained during its win over the Browns the previous week.

While the Giants aren't in panic-selling mode yet, that could change by early November.

They will face the Seattle Seahawks, Cincinnati Bengals, Eagles, Steelers and Commanders between now and the trade deadline. A 1-8 record at that point isn't unrealistic.

Pass-rusher Azeez Ojulari would be a logical trade candidate if New York continues to struggle. The 2021 second-round pick had eight sacks as a rookie and another 5.5 sacks in his second season but has fallen out of the game plan over the last two years. He's now a rotational player behind Kayvon Thibodeaux and Brian Burns.

The Buccaneers would be a sensible landing spot for Ojulari, as their pass rush has been inconsistent at best. While Tampa logged an impressive six sacks against the Eagles in Week 4, they had just two over the first three games.

The 24-year-old would also be a logical target for the Raiders. Las Vegas has also recorded eight sacks this season, but standout pass-rusher Maxx Crosby has been battling a high ankle sprain that kept him out of Week 4.

Raiders defensive coordinator Patrick Graham held the same position in New York during Ojulari's impressive rookie campaign.

Potential Suitors: Las Vegas Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

2. Davante Adams, WR, Las Vegas Raiders

Adams has jumped near the top of our list because he's available for a price and is actively looking for a new team. According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, the six-time Pro Bowler has informed Las Vegas that he would prefer to be traded.

However, Adams doesn't quite claim our top spot for a few reasons. He'll turn 32 in December, he's dealing with a hamstring injury, he won't come cheaply, and his contract situation beyond the 2024 season gets complicated.

Adams' base salary will balloon to $35.6 million in 2025.

That said, Adams is a legitimate difference-maker when he's healthy, and he'd provide a huge boost to virtually any receiver-needy team.

The Chiefs are probably out of the mix because A.) Las Vegas won't want to help a division rival and B.) Kansas City has just $4.6 million in cap space available. The Steelers, though, might want to make a play.

Pittsburgh tried to acquire Brandon Aiyuk from the San Francisco 49ers during the offseason, and it still lacks reliable receivers behind George Pickens and Calvin Austin III. Adding Adams to the mix might just make the Steelers a serious Super Bowl threat.

The Jets are another logical suitor, given Adams' history with Rodgers. New York's offense has shown glimpses of potency this season but still hasn't found its identity with Rodgers healthy and under center.

Adams might provide the spark that the Jets desperately need.

Potential Suitors: New York Jets, Pittsburgh Steelers

1. Haason Reddick, Edge, New York Jets

We'll keep our reasoning here brief. Pass-rusher Haason Reddick, who logged double-digit sacks in each of the past four seasons, will likely remain in our top spot for as long as he refuses to suit up for the New York Jets.

The 30-year-old is a proven playmaker at one of the NFL's most premium positions. Full stop. There should be no shortage of teams interested in acquiring him.

The Cowboys, who are dealing with injuries to both Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence, apparently are one of the few logical suitors who aren't interested. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, trading for Reddick "isn't a viable option" because of the cost.

Presumably, the two-time Pro Bowler will want the new contract he's not getting in New York to agree to play for another team. Dallas has $25.7 million in cap space but will, at some point, need to extend Parsons.

The Cardinals have $22.5 million in cap space and would be a sensible landing spot for Reddick. Arizona has already lost B.J. Ojulari (torn ACL) for the season and employs head coach Jonathan Gannon, who was Reddick's defensive coordinator in Philadelphia two years ago.

Reddick would also be a logical trade target for the Lions, who recently lost edge-rusher Marcus Davenport to a biceps injury.

Adding Reddick would give Detroit a high-end complement opposite Aidan Hutchinson and would help shore up a defense that showed some vulnerability against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 4.

Potential Suitors: Arizona Cardinals, Detroit Lions
