Desmond Ridder Will Fly in Arizona While Rondale Moore Joins the Dirty Birds

The Cardinals secure their backup quarterback while the Falcons aim for upside acquiring wide receiver Rondale Moore.

The Atlanta Falcons have been super active in free agency acquiring quarterback Kirk Cousins and signing wide receiver Darnell Mooney. With Desmond Ridder not being a scheme and archetype fit for their new offense, the Falcons are sending Desmond Ridder to the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for wide receiver Rondale Moore.

 

This is a win-win real life NFL trade and a trade that could be made in your Superflex Dynasty leagues. In Desmond Ridder, the Cardinals get a quality backup who can play to some of the skillset with which Kyler Murray operates the offense, albeit to a lesser degree. For the Falcons, Rondale Moore can be utilized in the short area passing game, end-arounds, and carries from the backfield.

 

This trade is neither a threat to Kyler Murray or Bijan Robinson, rather it gives both the Cardinals and Falcons extra versatility in their roster construction. With the kindling of this NFL trade, you can now use this short window to include Desmond Ridder and Rondale Moore into some cross-positional Dynasty trades with larger pieces serving as the meat shield to hide your intentions.
