Intercepted: Recapping the trade deadline and previewing Packers-Lions

Was there really any receiver trade that made sense for the Green Bay Packers? Acme Packing Company’s Justis Mosqueda and Rcon spend most of the first half of this week’s Intercepted trying to answer that question.

The draft pick cost for Chase Claypool and Jerry Jeudy seemed too competitive for the Packers to pull the trigger. Brandin Cooks’ guaranteed salary in 2023 was too much for the team to take on. Calvin Ridley doesn’t “give the team a spark” in 2022. So why is everyone mad about the Packers’ lack of action at the deadline? Maybe this was the year to be “in the mix” and fall short of a move.
