TL;DR (or for those without a subscription): The Packers provided Favre and Rodgers with plenty of veteran help in their early years at the OL, TE, and WR positions. Gute tried going young on offense so the players could develop together and it hasn’t worked — in fact, they have regressed through the first six games. The team also risks losing the locker room if everyone thinks the front office is only worried about winning two years from now and not today. For those reasons, Gute must add veterans before the trade deadline next week.
Some (not all) trade candidates Silverstein mentions are: DeAndre Hopkins, Hunter Renfrow, Jerry Jeudy, Derrick Henry, and Mike Evans.
Hide the checkbook from Gute and sell Alexander and anyone with perceived value now to build draft capital. Packers have had one top 5 pick in 31 years. It’s hard to get the best of the best always picking in the late 20’s. Time to admit it’s finally our turn to tank and get a stud like Aaron Donald, Myles Garrett, Bosa type player instead of picking a RAS guy and hoping our shitty coaching can turn him into a gem.
