2024 NFL Trade Block Big Board Entering Week 3

The Broncos have gotten barely serviceable play out of rookie quarterback Bo Nix so far this season. However, they’re probably not going to turn to third-string quarterback Zach Wilson at any point in the near future.

Head coach Sean Payton has tied his job security to Nix, and if the rookie somehow misses time, Jarrett Stidham is the top alternative.

This makes Wilson—another impending 2025 free agent—a prime trade asset for the Broncos. The 2021 first-round pick didn’t pan out for the New York Jets, but he still possesses upside and has 33 starts on his resume.

A week ago, we pegged the Green Bay Packers as a potential suitor, but they got surprisingly efficient play out of backup Malik Willis on Sunday. With Jordan Love (MCL sprain) possibly close to a return, the Packers are probably out of the quarterback market.

The Miami Dolphins, however, may not be. They lost Tua Tagovailoa to a concussion last Thursday. While Miami recently signed Tyler Huntley off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad, it might want additional depth if Skylar Thompson proves incapable of bridging the gap to Tagovailoa’s return.

The Panthers may also want to consider Wilson now that they’ve turned to Andy Dalton. No matter what happens the rest of the way this season, going back to Young will be difficult. The second-year quarterback’s confidence is undoubtedly shattered.

Acquiring Wilson wouldn’t mark the first time Carolina has tried to make it work with a former first-round pick. Before drafting Young, the Panthers tried running with both Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield.

Potential Suitors: Carolina Panthers, Miami Dolphins
