I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

#22 and Waller for Davante would've been a pretty blockbuster deal. Are we allowed to just trade them their 2nd round pick back for Waller? I feel like that is circumnavigating the rules or something. I love the idea of Waller but he missed a lot of time last year and I didn't realize he was going to be turning 30 around beginning of next season. Would be an interesting gamble but one I would understand, the upside is massive.
My guess would be based on technicalities they’d send #59 and maybe a 7th rounder
Do it for Chuck

Adam Silver will find a way to block it.

I don't think there are rules against trading a pick back to the team you got if from.
And the difference between #53 and #59 would require a 4th and 5th round pick.

Jordan Love rumors heating up. Atlanta keeps being brought up and saw some reports on twitter that they are putting on a full court press for him. If they blew us away with an offer, sure... but I'd rather hold onto Love for now.

I think their 2nd rounder strait up qualifies

As soon as Rodgers signed the extension I started to wonder why Love is on the roster. I'll be disappointed if he's not traded by Saturday.

A second or the option to package him with 1 or both our picks for #8. I'm not as quick to want to get rid of Love as some are. I don't want to just dump him for something like a day 3 pick.

Plus, If Love goes out (song title there....), Kurt Benkert, and Danny Etling are the current in-house backups. That won't work. The Pack would still need to bring on another QB from somewhere.

If Atlanta offers a second for Love the pack would be foolish to turn that down.

It would be "funny" if Love turned into a reverse Favre trade with Atlanta.   Although Favre cost us a first.

Instead of Love for a second would u package Love and one of our firsts to move up?

Exactly and this is why the Pack should trade him. They have to decide on his pricy fifth year option next spring so the clock is ticking on trying to recoup some value on that pick.
Take a second and sign some vet off the street as the backup.

Sure, but I also don't see many players worth moving up for. Jermaine Johnson and Jordan Davis are two that I see mocked in the teens that I'd go up and get.

How about our first and Love for Pitts? Don't think it would happen, but would allow Atlanta to get a QB and pair him with a WR with our pick.

Trade up and then trade down again, we already did it in the past years.

Like MM posted above, don'nt dump Love for some Day 3 junk. If the pro talent evaluators rank him above the current draftee crop, then he ought to scare up some good offers.
Also, from an eval perspective, Love has been in a quality pro QB program for two years, working with real pro receivers too
