Josh Downs, who has somewhat absurdly requested a trade ahead of next Tuesday's deadline. Although Downs has rather convincingly failed his latest fantasy test, he could still resuscitate his WR3 case if he ends up in the right landing spot.

Downs requests trade after failing fantasy test; WR3 upside elsewhere.

Downs, the Colts' No. 3 wideout, has requested a trade ahead of the deadline and received a pity touchdown against Jacksonville. The source notes he has 'rather convincingly failed his latest fantasy test' but could resuscitate his WR3 case if he ends up in the right landing spot. The Colts don't need to keep him around for the rebuild.
