Three realistic ideas for the Green Bay Packers to trade for Khalil Mack.

There have been some rumblings in recent days that the Packers could be a team to watch if indeed the Raiders end up fielding offers for superstar pass rusher Khalil Mack.

Here are three proposals that the Raiders could seriously consider.

1. Packers get: Khalil Mack

Raiders get: 2019 first-round pick, 2019 second-round pick, Brett Hundley

The Oakland Raiders reportedly showed interest in trading for Hundley back in March, but were only willing to deal a late-round pick. The Raiders’ backup quarterback situation is somewhat up in the air as Connor Cook continues to show inconsistencies as the main backup to Derek Carr.

The Packers own two first-round picks in next year’s draft after they traded the 14th pick in this year’s draft to the New Orleans Saints, but they shouldn’t part with two number one picks if they are also sending the Raiders a quarterback who they may be looking to keep on the roster as an insurance policy for Aaron Rodgers.

Two high draft picks and a competent backup quarterback might just be enough for the Raiders to let go of their generational pass rusher. With DeShone Kizer in the fold, the loss of Hundley will sting much less and allow Green Bay to go ahead with Tim Boyle as the third-string quarterback.

2. Packers get: Khalil Mack

Raiders get: 2019 first-round pick, 2019 third-round pick, Ty Montgomery

The Raiders don’t necessarily need a running back given their depth chart at the moment, but they could definitely use a runner with more experience as a receiver. Marshawn Lynch is not the world’s best receiver out of the backfield, while Doug Martin figures to mostly be a backup for the second team at this point in his career.

Montgomery is slowly becoming more and more expendable for Green Bay. Entering his contract year, Montgomery is facing a critical point in his career. With Jamaal Williams as the likely starter along with Aaron Jones in the rotation, Montgomery’s role with the Packers is slowly diminishing. The Packers have a ton of free agent decisions to make next offseason, and with Montgomery’s contract up at season’s end, the Packers may be wise to ship him out while they still can if it can net them Khalil Mack.

3. Packers get: Khalil Mack, 2019 seventh-round pick

Raiders get: Two 2019 first-round picks

Two first-round picks is quite a lot to give up for anybody in the NFL. The Packers passed on the opportunity to draft Derwin James and several other top level prospects in exchange for the future first-round pick. The Raiders probably won’t be thrilled with trading Mack in exchange for almost anything, but having three first-round picks in the same draft can be a franchise-changing reality.

Green Bay should understand that while unloading two first-round picks is tough to swallow, adding arguably the best defensive player in the world in his prime is pretty much priceless.

The Packers have been desperate for even starting-level defensive talent for years, and adding Mack would be quantum leap towards getting their defense on a championship level. Aaron Rodgers will turn 35 in December. The clock is ticking.
