Should the packers be making an offer to the Jags for Ngakoue?

According to the nfl website Ngakoue is disgruntled and wants out of Jacksonville but jags refuse to part ways without proper compensation, apparently having turned down a pro bowler being offered due to “fit”. Do you guys think it’s worth trading for Ngakoue, he’s a 25 year old Edge rusher who had averaged roughly 9-10 sacks a year since 2016.

Of course, usually it's been the over aggressive Rams who have bought in, which they're now dealing with the lack of cap and their attempt to go all in basically has ruined any shot at the Superbowl for the next couple of years for them.

The Packers already have two big contracts at edge rusher and a high valued draft pick which they're trying to develop. The chances are slim and nine that they add another expensive pass rusher right now, none, when it involves trades as well.

The next questions are where does Clowney end up, and is there a season? Then maybe trades.

Wouldn't you have to trade one of the Smiths for him? I love to have depth at edge rusher, but there is a point where we need to get Gary involved and that won't happen with 3 established edge rushers. The guy is also on a 1 year deal worth almost $18M and a UFA next season. Seems like a very risky proposition.

No for all the reasons listed above.
I think Beast said (typed) it best when he said the chances are "slim to nine". Well said young man. Well said.

In response to Thrilla's query, no trade.

Na, just the cellphone typing and the i and o are right next to each other.

Also nillion is great, because does it mean billion or million, one key spot off from both.
