Today is the day for the madness to begin.
Call your shot! Who is it gonna be?
Big name or role player? FA signing or trade agreement?
Let's hear it!

My shocker prediction is George Pickens is a Packer by the end of the week.
I also wouldn't be surprised to see Rasheed Walker moved for a mid-round pick/mid-tier player to make room for Jordan Morgan.

I really think the Packers might be somewhat quiet. My latest gut feeling/dream is that they trade up in The Draft for Tetairoa McMillan... like mid-teens.

The Packers will sign a CB. Let’s go with Byron Murphy.

thing is this wouldn't be overly shocking though, actually I think it's very possible.

Ahem.
shocker /shŏk′ər/
noun
One that startles, shocks, or horrifies, as a sensational story or novel.
Agent noun of shock: one who shocks; a person or thing that shocks or startles.
I'd have even settled for this...

I would argue any FA Gute signs Day 1 qualifies as a shocker

Mine is that we sign Cooper Kupp on a really friendly 4 year contract where if it doesn't work out after 2 years, we have minimal dead money.

now this would be a shocking experience for me, many think he'll go as high as top 8 or so, others have Golden going top 15, Eqbuka or Burden might drop to us.
I only saw a small sampling of the combine and zero vids, so all I have are the draft services to go by, seems like the 2nd or 3rd rounds might have a player with speed we can use, but not the ideal size

Ok new shocker. Pack trades Malik Willis for George Pickens, then signs none other than Aaron Rodgers as Loves backup!
that's not a shocker, that's a nightmare

With the true FA's pretty much dried up already, there is still a trade market that could heat up between now and The Draft. Any shockers there?
Some shockers I would be all-aboard on for the Packers:
- Trading up in The Draft for Tetairoa McMillan
- Trading for Chris Olave (although the concussions scare me)
- Trading for Garrett Wilson
- Trading for Brandon Aiyuk
- Trading for Trey Hendrickson
Different motivations for each of those teams to move on from those guys.
Others?

With the whiffs at the WR position and how we constantly miss out moving up for one every year I cant possibly imagine being ok and staying pat where we are again. I think we either move up in the 1st for King Tet or Golden or we move up in the 2nd for Higgins and use Jaire to trade and get some late compensation to make up for the loss of draft capital.
Aiyuk just signed an extension. Its a $40M dead cap hit. No one is swallowing that... unless for some reason you draft a QB in the first round then extend your other QB for some reason and then trade him a year later showing a complete lack of a plan whatsoever... but idk why anyone would do that.
Wilson is a young asset on a team with a lack of assets. I dont think the Jets would trade him. They still have a lot of contractual control plus a franchise tag to use.
Olave is a legitimate option with him in the last year of his rookie deal minus the option that will likely be accepted. Could be a real AJ Brown type move but he is going to cost at least a 1st for sure.

We don't need another WR with concussion issues.
