Best landing spot for Hall? (1 Viewer)

Seriously, why would they do that?
He's a playmaker on a rookie contract
What would anyone trade him for that they couldn't recoup when he leaves after the season?

Presumably the acquiring team would sign him to a new deal before agreeing to the trade. That's what tends to happen unless you're the Jets.

Did I miss some news?
In theory, a chance to see if Allen/Davis is a good enough backfield to move forward with. Its also possible (though I haven't heard anything about it) that Hall is a problem behind the scenes about his contract. I mean, just because he's not holding out like Cook, doesn't mean he's just accepting his lack of extension.
I could see a contender trading a 3rd rounder, or a team that at least thinks its a contender. That's more than they'd get as a comp pick, and they'd get it a year earlier.
As far as interesting teams go:
Bears and Cowboys jump to mind, but 2 really sneaky teams would be Washington (they've shown they know they have a Daniels window, and are open to dealing picks) and Houston (Stroud window, Mixon health may be worse than we know)
ETA: Haven't seen anything suggesting Hall is on the block, but given his usage, the offseason talk, and the lack of extension, I can see the reasons to speculate.

First I'm really hearing of him wanting a trade or the Jets wanting to trade him
I can remember his rookie season there was a lot of folks posting about him being a Top 3-5 RB
He's fallen hard it appears, I'm a little shocked we're at this point, didn't see it all summer in news but that doesn't mean it's not true

I don’t think they’re trading Breece. It sounds reasonable in fantasy football, but from a real NFL perspective, I don’t think the Jets would believe they’re better off nor would they get a big enough return to make it worthwhile. Maybe they’d consider at the deadline if they’re out of playoff contention.

His talent profile and usage down the stretch 2 years ago suggests that he is in fact a very, really very good running back.
However it’s been made clear that the injury seems to have taken something away from his top form.
He’s probably wanting to prove that he’s elite because he knows what he’s capable of. But who knows what about whether he’ll ever be back. Proof is in the pudding Breece.

Tony Pauline reported today that "people close to the situation" speculate Hall could be traded by the trade deadline. Hall also posted a cryptic tweet a few days ago saying "Time will tell." That's probably what's fueling the speculation. I imagine at this point it's mostly "ifs and buts" considering the season hasn't even started yet.
If he is available, Texans seem like a great fit. Mixon's injury could potentially linger and we know little about how severe it truly is, he turns 30 next year and the Texans can save $8.5M cutting him. Early practice reports have been less than glowing on Chubb unfortunately. Texans transitioned back to a power run, gap scheme this year to help with the offensive line woes which (I believe) is a good fit for Hall's style. A minor thing, but G Laken Tomlinson for the Texans blocked for Hall with the Jets a two years ago. HOU has extra picks in the 2nd & 4th next year as well giving them trade ammo. They're middle of the road cap space-wise but could easily free up plenty with some cuts/restructures. As a Texans fan, I can daydream can't I?

It would be a huge boost to Hall's redraft and dynasty value that's for sure.

Hall is such an easy buy for me in dynasty at current valuation (RB10-12).
One way or another I think the talent shines through. If it’s for the Jets, fine. We’ve seen what that can look like. If he gets traded or signs a big contract elsewhere he will still be just 24-25 years old and in line for a starter workload on a new team that likely has a better offense/QB.

If I were building a team around Justin Fields, I certainly wouldn't be trying to get a guy like Breece Hall off my team.

Google AI: Some analysts believe the Jets might move Hall by the trade deadline if they're not in playoff contention, potentially using Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis as their primary backs.
I'd question whether ownership is willing to admit not being in playoff contention before the season starts. I wouldn't put it past them, but the fan base would pitch a fit.
FYI, in the subscriber contest Allen is $10 and Davis is $4.
