[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 1010480, member: 12283"] If the Packers don't bounce back in a major way after the bye week, they should look to be sellers at the deadline. These are the players that I think it makes sense to trade away for draft capital, in that they could/should have value, they don't fit the long-term vision of the Packers, and their contracts don't make such a move impossible: [B]Rasul Douglas: [/B]I've floated the idea of trading Jaire, but I don't think that's altogether realistic with his contract.

Furthermore, you would ideally like to use a developmental season to get a look at younger talent on the roster, especially Stokes and Valentine.
