Packers 2021 NFL trade deadline primer: Trade assets
The most likely asset Green Bay gives up in any deal is going to be a 2022 draft pick. The good news is the Packers have a plethora of selections to deal next year. They have their own first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and seventh-round picks in addition to an extra seventh they received in the Ka’Dar Hollman trade. Additionally, they are projected to receive a fourth and a sixth-rounder as compensatory picks. The only pick they don’t have is their sixth-rounder which they sent to Houston in exchange for Randall Cobb.
