So this is all about cap space because we lack a pass rush and smith was one of the better ones this year. We can pretty much chalk this season up.

I think losing CB Douglas last year hurt more than DE Smith this year and they turned the season around after trading CB Douglas, so I'm not sure we'll see a huge difference and as long as the DEs stay healthy, I'm not sure our odds of winning has changed that much.

I don't know his cap number, I know he has not generated as much pressure, but neither have our other edge guys.

He is the only one who consistently set an edge.

I thank him for his time with us, and wish him the best in all non-Packer games

Go Packers!!!!

The Packers traded Preston Smith prior to Tuesday's deadline--a move that will give Mosby and Cox more snaps moving forward as the Packers search for more pass rush juice.

I've been reading/hearing people say this was going/should happen for a while.
Personally I am sorry to see him go. I was hoping he would be able to retire as a Packer. He has had some good seasons in GB. 2024 wasn't one of them.
Seeing what we can get out of the younger players will be interesting.
The bottom line is they were going to release him at the end of the year because of his contract in 2025 and 26. They restructured him a couple of times to get him in line with his on field performance.
In a twisted away it is sort of like trading him for Willis. Packers are out 1/2 a year of his services and gained 2 years from Malik.
