NFL trade deadline 2022: 5 Most underrated moves

With the 2022 NFL trade deadline upon us, we’ve seen some huge deals made between teams up to this point. Franchises haven't been shy about spending money.

Some teams are trading away talent in return for draft capital, while others are trading for superstar players as they look to make it all the way to the Super Bowl.

Here are five of the best trade deadline moves of the 2022-23 NFL season.


#5 - Kadarius Toney to the Kansas City Chiefs

After losing Tyreek Hill, Patrick Mahomes still looked like his old self, but that didn’t stop KC from trading for Kadarius Toney from the New York Giants.

Toney, a first-round pick just a year ago, was traded to the Chiefs for a third-round compensatory pick, as well as a sixth-rounder.

The 23-year-old has struggled to stay healthy so far in his NFL career, but has bags of potential, and if anyone can unlock that it’s Mahomes and Andy Reid.


#4 - James Robinson to the New York Jets

The New York Jets were in desperate need of running back depth after rookie sensation Breece Hall went down with a season-ending ACL injury.

That's why they traded a conditional sixth-round pick to the Jacksonville Jaguars for James Robinson.

Robinson was a sensation for the Jags, but in 2022 found himself increasingly isolated in terms of carries in comparison to Travis Etienne. This deal seems to make sense for both franchises and could prove to be a win-win for all involved.
