The Philadelphia Eagles’ 2026 season is spiraling. Jalen Hurts is out for the season with blood clots. They’re on a four-game losing streak and have the third-worst odds to reach the playoffs among NFC teams. The vibes are at an all-time low.
And with the Nov. 10 trade deadline nearing, there’s a real possibility that Howie Roseman and the Eagles are sellers.
But who would be on the trade block? What could those deals look like? Would the Eagles really trade Saquon Barkley?

Here are five deals that would make sense for Roseman and the Eagles — including a Barkley deal.
CB Riq Woolen to the Buffalo Bills
Eagles receive: 2027 fourth-round pick
Even though Cooper DeJean hasn’t played well, both of the Eagles’ 2024 All-Pro corners — DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell — will be eligible for extensions this offseason. It was always unlikely that Woolen would be more than a one-year rental for the Eagles. But the way this season has gone could mean he’s essentially a two-month rental.
Woolen, after a four-year start in Seattle, was signed to a one-year deal in March. So this would be his third team in eight months. But it won’t do the Eagles much good to keep him around while there are CB-needy teams out there.
The Bills are one of them. The AFC favorites rank 28th in defensive EPA per dropback, per Next Gen Stats. They’ve allowed 30+ points in three of their wins. The secondary isn’t cutting it. Adding Woolen would be an improvement.
OL Landon Dickerson to the Seattle Seahawks
Eagles receive: 2027 third-round pick
After Cam Jurgens was traded a couple of weeks ago, Dickerson discussed his future with the Eagles. He said whether or not he’s the long-term answer at left guard is a question for Roseman, not him. Dickerson would like to finish his career in Philadelphia. But with the Eagles already remaking their O-line — and Dickerson’s contract running through 2027 — a hard reset is a real possibility.
Dickerson has been ravaged by injuries. But with his 21-day practice window coming off IR opened, the three-time Pro Bowler could be a valuable addition to an OL-needy team.
Look no further than the defending Super Bowl champions, whose rotating offensive line has hurt their running game and left Sam Darnold constantly under pressure. The Seahawks have three third-round picks (their own, plus two compensatory picks). Parting with one would make sense.
DT Moro Ojomo to the San Francisco 49ers
Eagles receive: 2027 third-round, 2028 fourth-round picks
Ojomo is not expected to remain in Philly. That became clear this offseason when Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis signed lucrative contracts worth a combined $171 million in guaranteed money. Paying a third DT isn’t likely.
Ojomo, whose rookie deal runs out after this season, is good enough to land big money elsewhere in free agency. That could net the Eagles a 2028 third-round compensatory pick.
But if Roseman doesn’t want to wait that long, he could flip Ojomo to the 49ers, a Super Bowl contender with DT depth concerns, and get a premium for him.
TE Dallas Goedert to the Minnesota Vikings
Eagles receive: 2027 fifth-round pick
Goedert has been brought back on one-year deals in back-to-back offseasons. But after the Eagles drafted Eli Stowers in the second round, it feels unlikely that’ll happen again.
Stowers hasn’t made his NFL debut yet. After a disappointing preseason, he landed on the IR with hamstring and quad injuries. But Stowers’ 21-day window to return is open, and Zach Ertz is on the practice squad, ready to be signed to the active roster full time. That makes Goedert expendable.
The Vikings, an NFC contender thanks to a nasty defense, are thin at tight end. TJ Hockenson has a concussion, and Josh Oliver is on IR. Minnesota has three fifth-round picks to burn. Might as well send one to Roseman.
RB Saquon Barkley to the Houston Texans
Eagles receive: 2028 second-round, 2027 third-round, 2027 fifth-round picks
Roseman, when answering a question about the defense getting expensive (i.e. deals for Carter, Mitchell, DeJean, etc.), said the following in July: “I would say to our fans, if you’re wearing a jersey with some of those guys with those names on the back, we fully intend for those guys to be here on the long term.” That rationale could be applied to Barkley.
Barkley, the Pennsylvania native, former Penn State star and 2024 Offensive Player of the Year, is a fan favorite. Lincoln Financial Field is littered with No. 26 jerseys on Sundays.
Barkley’s also a fan favorite because, when healthy, he’s one of the best running backs in the league. That’s why Roseman gave him a two-year, $41 million extension after Super Bowl LIX. If Barkley is dealt on that deal, the Eagles would get hit with $26.5 million in dead cap in 2027 (something to consider).
But if someone sends an over-the-top offer for Barkley — a running back who will be 30 years old next season when the Eagles hope to contend again — Roseman is the type of GM that would consider moving on for the right price.
That brings us to the teams who would conceivably call about Barkley. The Seahawks and Vikings would be among them. But a deal with an AFC team — a team that wouldn’t directly be in the Eagles’ 2027 playoff path — would be an easier sell.
Roseman and Texans general manager Nick Caserio have completed seven trades since 2023. There’s clearly a good working relationship there.
There’s also a desire by Houston to contend in the AFC. After already sending a 2027 second-rounder to the Cardinals for WR Marvin Harrison Jr., the Texans could look to improve one of the worst rushing offenses in the league.
Barkley was initially interested in the Texans when he was a free agent back in 2024. Now, there’s a chance he could be sent to Houston for a haul — a move that would cause ripple effects in Philadelphia but signal that the Eagles are committed to a long-term retooling.
