At 4:00 PM ET today, the NFL's trade market slams shut — no more deals until the new league year. And if the league's general managers treat Tuesday anything like they treated Monday, the final hours will be chaos. One team in particular has already redefined what “buying” looks like: the Jacksonville Jaguars added three defensive starters in a single day. This page is our live-morning tracker: every confirmed deal, what it cost, the one superstar cliffhanger, and the honest state of play as the clock runs.
The Deadline: 4 PM ET Today
The mechanics are simple and unforgiving. Any trade must be agreed and filed with the league by 4:00 PM Eastern today, Tuesday, November 10. Deals reported after the deadline do not exist. Contenders are shopping for the one piece that changes January; sellers are converting veterans into draft picks; and as Monday proved, some teams are doing both at a scale nobody predicted. Everything below was confirmed as of Tuesday morning — expect this list to move before the buzzer, and we will update it as deals file.
Jacksonville's All-In: 3 Starters, 4 Draft Picks
The Jaguars' Monday will be studied for years. Jacksonville acquired defensive tackle Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles, safety Jessie Bates III from the Atlanta Falcons, and defensive tackle Davon Godchaux from the New Orleans Saints — three starting-caliber defenders, at three levels of the defense, in roughly 24 hours. Contenders usually add a piece. Jacksonville added a spine.
The reported prices show how serious this is. Davis cost a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-rounder — premium capital for a premium interior defender. Bates cost a 2027 second-round pick and a 2028 fifth-rounder, a real price for a proven ball-hawking safety. Between just those two deals, Jacksonville committed four draft picks, including its next first-rounder. Godchaux's terms had not been reported at publish time; what is clear is the philosophy. The Jaguars believe their window is now, and they have spent like it.
Every Confirmed Deal So Far
Jordan Davis, DT — Philadelphia Eagles to Jacksonville Jaguars — for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. The headline deal of the cycle: a franchise defensive tackle, moved for a first.
Jessie Bates III, S — Atlanta Falcons to Jacksonville Jaguars — for a 2027 second-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick. Jacksonville's secondary gets its quarterback on the same day its line gets its anchor.
Davon Godchaux, DT — New Orleans Saints to Jacksonville Jaguars — terms not yet reported. The third piece of the Monday haul, completing a defensive front rebuild in a day.
Jeffery Simmons, DT — to the Chicago Bears (October 29). The deal that started the defensive-tackle gold rush: Chicago paid up for an elite interior disruptor and set the market Jacksonville later shopped in.
Quenton Nelson, G — to the Seattle Seahawks (October 27), and DeForest Buckner, DT — to the San Francisco 49ers (October 27). An All-Pro guard and another star tackle moved on the same day — the week the trenches became the deadline's currency.
Also confirmed across the window: wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Houston Texans, quarterback Jacoby Brissett to the Baltimore Ravens, safety Andre Cisco to the Detroit Lions, and quarterback J.J. McCarthy to the New York Giants. Meanwhile, Monday brought non-trade news with trade-deadline weight: wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was reinstated — a storyline every contender's front office noted before today's calls.
Jonathan Taylor: The Cliffhanger
The biggest name in the rumor mill is the one that has not moved. Running back Jonathan Taylor has been linked to the New York Giants — but per reporting from Jay Glazer, the Giants have withdrawn their offer, leaving the star back in limbo with hours to go. A withdrawn offer is not a dead deal; deadline day resurrects trades hourly, and a seller staring at 4 PM sometimes calls back. But as of this morning, the team that wanted him has walked from the table, and every hour without a revival makes Taylor staying put the likelier ending.
Winners, Losers, And The Teams That Did Nothing
Winners, with the window still open: Jacksonville, obviously — no team improved its January ceiling more this week. Chicago and San Francisco bought elite trench talent early, before prices peaked. Losers, provisionally: every contender still shopping at deadline-morning prices, and any front office that watched the defensive tackle market explode while holding a need at defensive tackle.
The quiet teams deserve scrutiny too. Monday night's result — Buffalo's defense strangling Minnesota 23–6 — is the kind of tape that forces decisions by 4 PM: one team proved it can win ugly in January, the other left the field with open questions at quarterback and everywhere else. Somewhere this afternoon, a phone will ring because of that game. By 4:00 PM ET, the market closes — and the league's balance of power for the rest of 2026 is set. We will update this tracker as the final deals file.
