Packers: Three trade-up targets in the 2020 NFL Draft

Three possible trade-up targets for the Green Bay Packers in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Green Bay Packers enter the draft with 10 selections, giving them plenty of flexibility when it comes to potential trade-up scenarios.

General manager Brian Gutekunst has used this to his advantage the past two years, trading up in both of his draft classes to date. In 2018, he initially traded down before jumping back up with the Seattle Seahawks to select cornerback Jaire Alexander. It was an incredible move that saw the Packers bring back a future first-round pick.

And he used that extra selection — No. 30 overall from the New Orleans Saints in 2019 — to trade up nine positions with the Seahawks to select safety Darnell Savage Jr.

Gutekunst also traded up for Oren Burks in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.

Clearly, Gutekunst has no qualms about trading up at any point in the draft if there is a prospect he believes won’t fall. It can be a risky move but for a team in win-now mode, it’s smart. By trading up, the Packers can target players they believe can help the team immediately.

After trading up twice in the first round so far, will Gutekunst do so again? Here are three potential trade-up targets for the Packers in 2020 — two in the first round and one in the second.
