Published: Mar 20, 2019 at 07:30 AM NFL.com Writer The free agency period was certainly frenzied, but the biggest blockbusters came in the form of trades, with some of the most notable names in sports (not just football) changing teams in the past week. Forget about baseball -- the NFL had the hot stove this year. Here's a look at the biggest swaps of the offseason thus far, along with my grades for each side involved. Steelers trade WR Antonio Brown to Raiders acquire: Brown acquire: 2019 third-round pick (No. 66) and 2019 fifth-round pick (No. 141) Grade for Keith Brooking Jersey Raiders: A+. If you look at the and Brown trades together instead of in a vacuum -- which is what I'm choosing to do here -- the walked away with Brown Dallas' first-round pick in exchange for Cooper, a third and a fifth. (I even saw some online writing that painted the trade , whichmade me wonder if the actually know what they are doing.) It will be interesting to see how this acquisition impacts quarterback . He's never been much of a downfield thrower in the NFL, breaking the top 20 just . But pairing him with Brown (who also landed a new deal with Oakland for three years and $50.125 million, including $30.125 million guaranteed) could change all of that. Brown averaged 11.2 air yards per target last season. Grade for Steelers: D. Brown is the best receiver of the past decade, so this was a disappointing haul for Pittsburgh, especially when you consider what Cooper and Jr. (see below) fetched in their own trades. Even at Brown's age (he'll be 31 when the 2019 season begins), this was underwhelming. One thing of note: The have landed guys like running back and tight end in the third and fifth rounds in recent years, so they do have a track record of finding value in the middle rounds. Browns and Giants make blockbuster deal acquire: WR Jr., DE Olivier Vernon acquire: OG , S , first-round pick (No. 17) and third-round pick (No. 95) in 2019 draft Grade for Browns: A+++. Unbelievable move for the . It's fitting that the team from the town would a semble the best super group since Temple of the Dog. All right, that was really bad, but this move is amazing. OBJ's 44 career touchdown pa ses and 5,476 receiving yards rank third and seventh in the NFL since he entered the league -- and you could reason that he hasn't even reached his full potential yet, because he played with a quarterback (Eli Manning) on the downside of his career in New York. QB broke Peyton Manning's in just 14 games last season, and he had the second-most pa sing yards per game in a rookie season ever (266.1). He was 12th in yards per pa s attempt in 2018, despite the having a six-percent drop rate. His red-zone pa ser rating was 116.5, and he threw 20 TD pa ses with no picks. His overall pa ser rating was 106.2 in the games after coach Hue Jackson was fired (Week 9 on). This is a great move. Maybe the greatest move the have ever Colby Gossett Jersey made. Grade for Giants: F (for now). It's easy to bash general manager Dave Gettleman for trading away a transformative and beloved New York icon. The optics are terrible, especially in March -- but Gettleman now has two first-round picks (Nos. 6 and 17 overall) to play with, plus an additional third to go with two veteran players (Zeitler and Peppers) that he desperately needed. Who knows, maybe he can get into the mix for , or, at worst, swing a deal for if the nab the Oklahoma QB? This is a PR hit, but I'll be willing to give Gettleman the benefit of the doubt. I mean, people made fun of the a couple of years ago, too. Bucs ship WR DeSean Jackson to Eagles acquire: Jackson, Mike Davis Jersey 2020 seventh-round pick acquire: 2019 sixth-round pick (No. 208) Grade for Eagles: B+. After trying for years to find a DeSean Jackson-type to replace the receiver who was unceremoniously dumped by former coach Chip Kelly in 2014, the organization did the right thing and just brought Jackson back to the fold (they also gave him a new three-year deal). Jackson led the NFL in air yards per target last year, with 19.1. That's well ahead of the No. 2 receiver, the ' (16.5), among receivers with at least 50 targets. Grade for Buccaneers: C. I mean, the fact that Tampa got anything for a player who was probably going to be cut loose anyway should be seen as a victory. Jackson and the Bucs had some nice times over the past two seasons (he posted a league-high 18.9 yards per catch last season), but the pairing never really lived up to its potential. Patriots acquire DE Michael Bennett from Patriots acquire: Bennett, 2020 seventh-round pick acquire: 2020 fifth-round pick Grade for Patriots: A. This is a typical move right here. After losing to free agency, they complete a cost-effective transaction to actually improve. How is this po sible? What's interesting to note here is that since 2014, only and have been better than Bennett at rushing the pa ser among edge rushers, according to ; Bennett generated 374 pre sures in that span, behind Miller's 405 and Mack's 386. Grade for Eagles: C. From 2009 to 2017, Bennett split his time between the Bucs and , but now, after one year in Philly, he's on to another new team -- the 33-year-old is at the mercenary stage of his NFL career. Bennett not only to stay with the , but he wanted a raise. So even though they're losing a player who recorded nine sacks last season, this move did make some sense for them. Broncos make deal with Ravens for QB Joe Vic Beasley Jersey Flacco acquire: Flacco acquire: 2019 fourth-round pick (No. 113) Grade for Broncos: D. Say what you want about GM John Elway, but he certainly has a formula. I mean, he's already won a with one former MVP coming off an injury, so why not try to capture that magic again? I mean, we all kee playing the same lottery numbers, right? And if Flacco does become Peyton Manning 2.0, I will be happy to apologize. Grade for Ravens: A. Baltimore has reaped a fourth-round pick for a quarterback they weren't going to keep anyway? I'm not sure you could have asked for much more than this. Redskins land QB Case Keenum in swap with Broncos acquire: 2020 sixth-round pick acquire: Keenum, 2020 seventh-round pick Grade for Broncos: C. It's like selling CDs at a garage sale. You have no use for them anymore, so at least you get something back for them. But then you get depre sed when thinking about the amount of money you first spent on them. In the ' case, they handed Keenum a two-year, $36 million deal last year, and he proceeded to compile a 6-10 record, 18:15 TD-to-INT ratio and a pa ser rating of 81.2; he'll also count for $7 million in dead money against the cap for them this year, . Grade for Redskins: C (for now). On one hand, Washington has added Keenum to a roster that already included . (Insert here.) But I'm willing to wait and see if the team drafts a quarterback or takes a run at Rosen if the draft Murray. Keenum would be an ideal bridge quarterback. Dolphins trade QB Ryan Tannehill to Titans acquire: Tannehill, 2019 sixth-round pick (No. 188) acquire: 2019 seventh-round pick (No. 233), 2020 fourth-round pick Grade for Titans: B. I don't hate this move. Quarterback has battled injuries in recent years, so what's the harm in having a credible backup? If the get creative enough, they could turn the former college receiver into the AFC South's version of . Grade for Dolphins: A. I mean, this is all just to say aloha to one of the top QBs in 2020, right? And the grab . Seriously, I can't wait for Calvin Ridley Jersey those three weeks when Fitzmagic is the best quarterback in the NFL -- followed by the week he throws six picks against the . It's going to be amazing. 49ers land OLB Dee Ford from Chiefs acquire: Ford acquire: 2020 second-round pick Grade for 49ers: A. Am I wrong for loving th Click hereClick hereClick here
