TRADE 1: Eazy Coco Exchange

For the third year in a row, Carmel makes the first trade of the season, and for the second year in a row, their partner is Phoenix, as the teams exchange flex depth.

CARMEL AQUIRES: WR COREY DAVIS

PHOENIX ACQUIRES: TE EVAN ENGRAM

The Uprising started Cole Kmet in their first two games and his stat line came up snake eyes, a pair of zeroes. Putting a plea up on the trading block, Carmel offered Engram, who has put up volume results over the same time frame, catching 11 balls on 12 targets for 74 yards. They're not eye popping numbers, but he appears to offer the healthy safety net that Kmet's splatter could not.

In return Carmel gets Corey Davis, who was WR31 in 2020 and has shown a propensity for big plays in each of his first two turns in 2022, scoring 12.2 and 17.9 while confined to the Phoenix bench. The two players were drafted as neighbors: Davis going 275th overall and Engram 287th overall, so, we're looking at a pair of high pedigree veterans with the potential for a breakout season- or at least a contributing role at a position of need.
