With the NFL Draft just around the corner and most top-notch free agents already signed, it’s about time we assess how teams fared in the offseason.
Some got significantly worse, while others look much improved ahead of the upcoming campaign.
Still, even if all teams made some moves, a handful of those transactions stand out from the rest of the pack.
With that in mind, former NFL QB Dan Orlovsky listed his top-five best offseason moves thus far (via Get Up).

At No. 5, he has the Detroit Lions signing former Cincinnati Bengals DT DJ Reader to strengthen that defensive line, and he certainly will bring the toughness that coach Dan Campbell loves to see from his players.
Then, he talked about the Pittsburgh Steelers getting two starting-caliber quarterbacks in Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, and they should be significantly better with that much-improved quarterback room after moving on from Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph, and Mitch Trubisky.
On the same note, he has the Atlanta Falcons winning the Kirk Cousins sweepstakes at No. 3, which is far from a surprise, as they should now be expected to win the NFC South Division.
Then, he has the Philadelphia Eagles stealing Saquon Barkley from the New York Giants, making some noise in the NFC East Division, and adding one of the best running backs in the game.
However, he has the Houston Texans getting both Danielle Hunter and Joe Mixon as the best string of moves in the offseason, and it’s hard to argue with that statement, as this up-and-coming team added two proven veterans to fix two of their most glaring needs.
