It's all speculation, but the rumors are suggesting that the Packers are looking at the following

SS DERWIN JAMES, FLORIDA ST.
CB DENZEL WARD, OHIO ST.
LB TREMAINE EDMUNDS, VIRGINIA TECH
ILB ROQUAN SMITH, GEORGIA

Since you said other rumor.... there is also a rumor that BG asked Bulaga to take a pay cut and he said no, thanks to that.

I'm guessing pretty much every team is "plotting" a move up, or a move down or is "plotting" to stand pat. In fact if a GM isn't at least considering it he is not doing his job. As a GM you make inquiries to test the waters and see who might be amenable to what.

When I read tweets like this sometimes I hope the opposite happens just to see how the twit reacts.

They'll find a way to maneuver around reality to say they were right. It's what they do, as well as certain commander in chief. (sorry couldn't resist)

Brian G conference he said they have about five people handling the phones and they have deals in place prior to the draft and prior to the pick. Depending on how things fall, they contact those previously agreed upon draft trades to see if the option is still available. This is news or headline worthy only because it deviates from what we've publicly heard from our GM in the past. This has been common with the Packers since Ron Wolf. They are still handling draft room stuff to his thinking. This is all stuff Brian G stated and John Dorsey.

If he trades up, he’s all sizzle and no steak. I will lose as much confidence in him as I’ve already lost in Murphy.

To me this is just due diligence and doing your homework.

There is not a lot of time between picks. It only makes sense for the GM to know what the asking price would be to move up should the other GM being willing to trade back.

This is frightening.

Wayyy too much info! False or otherwise.

Sending out misinformation usually signals draft room thinking because NFL front offices are not like about 40% of the American public that is just STUPID and accepts as fact lie after lie after lie.

Example: If the Bulaga “leak” is designed to get GMs to think GB’s looking to draft OL when we are not, this could trick fans and draftniks. But, NFL front offices have countless ways to learn just serious GB is from moving on from Bulaga. If GB is not, then 1265 just informed the other 31 teams that they are not looking OL.

Even more frightening is that 1265 is looking OL and this is designed as justification to placate a fanbase that will undoubtedly be disappointed.

You want to know how a GM should act leading up to the draft, ya look at the best: Wolf, Ted, Belichick, etc. A good GM controls his effing stupid kiddy bitch ego and insecurities and endeavors to STFU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This GM first not listening to his pro scout department on Graham [a move that pandered to fanbase] and we have one of the largest PSDs, and now this PC and Bulaga Leak. Folks, the evidence is mounting to support the idea that GB’s GM either an idiot or an insecure fan-panderer.

And 5 people on the phone? Really? There's 31 other teams, that's 1 person for 6 teams, just sitting there all day waiting for them to call? Or are they "robo calling" the other 31 teams? 😂 😂 😂 Gutey wont be able to make a trade this weekend, they'll be 31 restraining orders prohibiting 1265 from calling these teams. 😂 😂 😂 This is the most stupid thing a GM has ever said in the history of football.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
