5 NFL teams that got better at the 2024 trade deadline (and 3 that got worse)

The 2024 NFL trade deadline has come and gone. Over the past three weeks, we’ve seen a solid cache of big names dealt.

Early in the process, that meant veteran stud wideouts like Davante Adams and DeAndre Hopkins. Closer to the deadline, Marshon Lattimore left the New Orleans Saints roster he’d called home his entire NFL career and less impactful, but still notable, veterans like Tre’Davious White, Preston Smith and Mike Williams all relocated in quieter deals.

These moves changed the landscape where 23 teams remain in a playoff hunt that will only accept 14 of them. So which teams significantly improved their odds of making it to the games that count, and who went in the opposite direction?
