3 bold predictions for Green Bay Packers offseason after NFL Draft
By Scott Rogust
2. Trade Jordan Love
When looking around the league, there are not many spots open for quarterbacks looking to become a starter. Yet, that can always change throughout the offseason, especially if a team’s starting signal-caller were to pick up an injury.
There are big names that are on the trading block, such as Jimmy Garoppolo of the San Francisco 49ers and Baker Mayfield of the Cleveland Browns. But if a team were to want a young signal-caller, Jordan Love could be a name that generates some interest.
Love is entering the third year of his rookie contract, and the team will have to decide whether to use the fifth-year option on him in the 2023 league year. Meanwhile, Green Bay re-signed Aaron Rodgers to a three-year, $150 million contract extension this offseason.
There could be a team that is willing to bring in Love to see if he can be their starting quarterback of the future, especially if their starter were to go down with an injury ahead of the start of the season, and if they are willing to pick up the fifth-year option.
