Real life trades have fantasy consequences. As NFL teams wheel and deal on deadline day, players gain and lose value in the shuffle. We'll break down what the deadline means for key players on the teams making deals.
This post will be update throughout the day as more trades are made.
The first trade made on deadline day was a doozy, with the Broncos sending Demaryius Thomas to the Texans. Thomas’s fantasy value gets a slight bump, due largely to the quarterback improvement. Case Keenum was an obvious upgrade from the likes of Trevor Siemian and Brock Osweiler, but he wasn’t able to carry over his Minnesota magic to Denver this season.
