GREEN BAY, Wis. The NFL trade deadline is just hours away. By 3 p.m. Tuesday, the Green Bay Packers will have either acquired a player to make a move in the NFC playoff race or acknowledged that their season is going nowhere.It really comes down to opportunity, coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday, a day after the 27-17 lo s to the Bills. If the right opportunity presents itself, I know that Guteys all on board of trying to upgrade our roster. Youre always trying to do that. But were not just going to do a silly deal.Here are the pros and cons that general manager Paul George Jersey Brian Gutekunst must have been weighing over the last week or two.BuyDuring their four-game losing streak, the Packers have averaged 17.5 points per game. That used to be a pretty good first half back in the good old days when Aaron Rodgers could throw the ball to Davante Adams.Following the trade of Adams, everyone knew it would be a transition on offense. Perhaps not to this extent, though. With eight games in the books, the Packers are 26th in scoring with 18.1 points per game. They are a woeful 26th in yards per pa sing play (6.14 yards). Because of it, they are 22nd on third down (37.4 percent) and 32nd on fourth down (18.2 percent). Of 35 qualifying quarterbacks, Rodgers 4.32 air yards per completion ranks 34th.Pro: The only way the Packers are going to turn around the season is by acquiring a receiver, whether its a Avery Bradley Jersey legit, every-down weapon such as Houstons Brandin Cooks or someone who can at least stretch the field. Allen Lazard and Cooks would be a legit one-two punch. Mix in Randall Cobb (when hes healthy) and the rookies, and the Packers might have something. Con: At some point, the Packers will have to rebuild. A draft pick used to acquire a receiver means one fewer draft pick to retool the roster. Moreover, while one receiver could vault the team into the playoffs, will it be enough to get to the Super Bowl? Gutekunst didnt construct this roster to go 9-8 and sneak into the playoffs as the No. 7 seed.SellIf Gutekunst sees the roster that he built is fatally flawed, Rodney McGruder Jersey is there any reason to mortgage any of the future for a receiver thats not going to move the needle in January? Just roll with Lazard and the young quartet of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Samori Toure and Amari Rodgers to see who youve got for Rodgers (or Jordan Love) to throw to in 2023.Pro: Imagine the kings ransom the Packers could get for trading Aaron Jones. His cap number for next year is a whopping $20 million. The Packers could restructure it to le sen the blow but that would only be compounding the teams future cap problems. So, if the Packers are going to release Jones at the end of Kawhi Leonard Jersey this season, why not get something in return? The Panthers, for instance, got second-, third-, fourth- and fifth-round picks for Christian McCaffrey. McCaffrey may or may not be better than Jones; Jones absolutely is the more durable and reliable player.The Packers could also try to dump safety Darnell Savage, the former first-round pick who is having a bad season. Rudy Ford could be a competent replacement. Scroll to Continue I hope not, LaFleur said of selling. But you never know. Con: For the Packers, selling would be tough. With an exception here and there, all theyve done is win for three decades. Trading a star like Aaron Jones would be the white flag of surrender. Moreover, if the Packers are going to give up on this season after eight games, then they should have traded Aaron Rodgers in the offseason rather than signing him to a new contract.Do NothingDoing nothing is the Packers typical approach to the trade deadline. With a 3-5 record, it would be an admi sion that this season isnt going anywhere, though Gutekunst could at least use the excuse that Jerome Robinson Jersey the asking prices were too high to justify a trade.Pro: None, other than future draft picks wont be sacrificed.Con: Like selling at the deadline, doing nothing would send the clear me sage to the locker room that this season is over. In either aspect, it will be interesting to see if LaFleur can keep the team together. Would Aaron Rodgers go rogue in recognition that hell almost certainly leave the Packers without a second Super Bowl ring? Will there be a mutiny on defense?Related Stories: Packers at Bills
