What happened: The hypothetical move would give Buffalo another outside receiver while moving Chris Olave to a team with higher near-term expectations. Olave is discussing a new contract with New Orleans ahead of camp.

Why it matters: Buffalo's win-now window and New Orleans' longer roster timeline underpin the proposed exchange. The Saints would replenish draft capital, while the Bills could face the additional cost of a long-term contract.

By the numbers: New Orleans has already moved three selections from that draft, mostly from the later rounds.

What to watch: Progress in Olave's contract talks before camp will shape whether trade interest gains traction.
