Yes, we continue to wait on the Aaron Rodgers trade and yes, it’s starting to sound like a broken record that it will get done soon. That said, a prominent NFL insider says this will get done before the draft.
Responding to a reader in a mailbag article, Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated not only thinks a trade “certainly will happen before the draft” but also thinks a trade “could happen as early as this week.”
Breer notes the connections between general managers Joe Douglas and Brian Gutekunst — both were scout togethers in their early years — and head coaches Robert Saleh and Matt LaFleur, who are very close friends.
