Picks + Emmanuel Sanders

The Green Bay Packers have an arsenal on offense.

Between Davante Adams and Aaron Jones, they make up two of the best at their position. However, outside of the two of them, their depth has really relied on the accuracy and precision of Rodgers.

It is a similar situation to the reason that random receivers under Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and other Hall-of-Fame quarterbacks made names for themselves. If they could add another talent like Emmanuel Sanders, they would be setting Jordan Love up for success.

In addition to Emmanuel Sanders, the Saints would also offer the Packers their 2020 first-round pick which isn’t high by any stretch of the imagination. Along with their first, they would offer them a fourth-round pick as well.

A trade like this would allow the Saints to seamlessly move on from Brees into the Rodgers era and for the Packers to seamlessly move from the Rodgers era to the Jordan Love era. It would definitely be a win-win for both sides.
