NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero says Round 1 could see multiple trades in the 2026 draft, with the Jets likely to stay at No. 2 while the Cardinals and Titans are open to moving. The Saints (No. 8) and Chiefs (No. 9) are among teams weighing up-moves, aided by several clubs owning two first-round picks, and a mid-first round run on offensive linemen plus late-QB intrigue could fuel more wheeling and dealing.
With opening night in Pittsburgh looming, Around the NFL analysts propose six trades that could shake up Round 1: the Chargers acquire Dexter Lawrence from the Giants (giving up a first-round pick, with Quentin Johnston as a potential sweetener); Dallas would leap to No. 4 to take Sonny Styles; the Jets move up to target a WR; the Lions jump from 17 to the top five to grab Spencer Fano; the Raiders move up from 36 to No. 23 to land Omar Cooper Jr.; and Cincinnati tries to leap into the top five for a difference‑making defender.
