From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
I have read several tweets claiming the Packers are looking to be BUYERS in the trade market, actively seeking a vet RB and/or a vet WR.
I swear, if this FO throws away meaningful assets on a junk trade in the middle of a lost youth experience building season, I may lose it.
...unless it's Davante Adams. I could live with that.
I was typing out a message of agreement, but then I thought that, while we should just take our lumps this season, it wouldn't be a bad idea to lock down a RB or WR who will be viable for the next 5 years or so (to the extent RBs can be viable that long ofc). We are lacking a superstar WR and with every game, Watson is making me doubt him more and more. Aaron Jones is obviously great, and frankly I wouldn't mind continuing to resign him as long as he is good. But we really need 3 NFL-caliber RBs ideally and we only have 1. Would rather just draft like 3 fast RBs in the later rounds of the 2024 draft (because that seems to be how to get good RBs), but depending on who is available I would possibly make a trade.
With the Davante talk heating up, it sounds like he asked for a trade thsi month and the Raiders said no. Makes sense, they've have over $30M in dead cap if they got rid of him. He's stuck on the Raiders for another year unless someone is willing to give up major picks for him.
I actually really like that move for the Bears. Theyre building a foundation and banking on the Panthers to continue to suck so they can still get a QB.

Can’t really say I do.
Decent pass rushers are valuable, but there always appears to be plenty available in FA at his level.
Might as well get one for free if you gotta pay fair market value for him either way.
