In 2019, every NFL trade is plausible. Imagine if I'd told you this time last year that the Steelers would trade Antonio Brown for third- and fifth-round picks, or that the Giants actually dumped Odell Beckham Jr. and said Jabrill Peppers and first- and third-round picks were too good of an offer to turn down. You would have rightfully stopped reading this article. Yet, here we are.
Every April, I read well-intentioned mock drafts which don't include any trades amid their 32 selections. I know that it's the reality of constructing a mock draft -- it's difficult enough to project where prospects will go, let alone where trades might occur -- but it also leaves out a huge portion of what makes the draft fun.
