During today's NFL trade deadline, a few big moves were made, while some other mediocre teams decided to stand firm and be content

Well, things escalated quickly. Which teams made the best -- and worst -- moves before the NFL trade deadline? We're making sense of all the action.

New York dealt the two biggest stars on deadline day, moving cornerback Sauce Gardner to the Indianapolis Colts for two first-round picks and wideout Adonai Mitchell. Later, defensive tackle Quinnen Williams headed to the Dallas Cowboys for a 2026 second-rounder, 2027 first-rounder and DT Mazi Smith.

The Colts pay a steep price for cornerback Sauce Gardner. Have they set themselves up for a Super Bowl run? Here are NFL trade grades.

Cleveland did most of its dealing well before deadline day, though it moved up a round on Day 3 next spring thanks to the Joe Tryon-Shoyinka trade with the Bears. This year's rookie class has been promising for the Browns, and it felt like they could have offloaded at least another veteran or two for more picks.

The Indianapolis Colts moved up a bit in the odds to win the Super Bowl after landing Sauce Gardner. Did any other trade move the needle?

The Pittsburgh Steelers failed to pull off any moves at the NFL trade deadline, leaving fans upset about all the wasted hype.

Detroit Lions GM Brad Holmes did not make an NFL trade deadline move for the first time since 2021 despite injury problems on the OL.
