The Green Bay Packers are prime candidates to trade up in this year‘s draft. There are premium wide receivers that are projected to go in the top 15. Multiple teams who have a need for wide receiver pick twice before the Packers. The Jets, the Saints, and the Eagles all have two draft picks before pick number 22. This may prompt Green Bay to move up in the draft for either Chris Olave, Jameson Williams, Drake London, or Garrett Wilson. Reports have come out this afternoon that Green Bay is exploring these options:
Another team exploring a move up: the #Packers, who own Nos. 22 and 28 and may need to move up for their receiver of choice. https://t.co/aLHSr2PfSv

often times these type of reports are mind games. Just attempting to throw off the competition as to watch Green Bay may be interested in, however there are many occasions where these reports are accurate. This may be one of those times. Green Bay may be willing to part with a third round pick to move up in the draft, I don’t see them giving up a second round pick however. I think they are really happy with having four pics in the top 60. Having three packs and moving up in the first round is still a win.
