The front office has already made news by making a deal with Kansas City to acquire running back Knile Davis this week — but it’s a lack of talent in the wide receiver role where the concern is developing.
Many believed that the return of Jordy Nelson would make all things right again, but the group as a whole is playing poorly. This unit isn’t getting separation from defensive backs and now with troubles in the running game, even more pressure will be on the passing attack in the foreseeable future.
With the trade deadline quickly approaching, rumors are buzzing on social media of potential deals management could make to help with the situation. The latest from Matt Urben of Fan Sided suggests Cleveland Browns Terrelle Pryor could be the answer.
Despite entering the NFL as a quarterback, the 27-year-old has converted to playing on the outside this season, despite playing with four different quarterbacks in Cleveland.
Pryor has become a force in the league this season and his size would be a welcome advantage for Rodgers and the Packers offense. With 33 receptions for over 400 yards and three touchdowns already this season, his potential could really blossom playing with one of the games best under center and a move to a team in playoff contention.
Several sources have indicated the Browns could be looking to move several players in the next few days. The team is trying to rebuild once again and are hoping to pick up several draft choices to help in the process.
It seems this season has a few more trade rumors than normal and with teams looking for that one player to help turn things around. This deal would definitely help Green Bay this season, but the trade could also land Cleveland that young player or two that helps turn things around for the struggling franchise, making this a win-win situation for everyone involved.
