The Green Bay Packers still need to add another starting-caliber edge rusher to pair with Micah Parsons.
That's why Bleacher Report's Moe Moton proposed a trade that would send New York Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux to Green Bay.
"Green Bay can make a move for Kayvon Thibodeaux with the intention of pairing him with Parsons for the long term. It's a risky move given the four-year pro's inconsistent production, but he could benefit from lining up across an elite pass-rusher," Moton wrote.
Thibodeaux had a breakout 2023 season with the Giants, tallying 11.5 sacks in 17 games. However, injuries and overall inconsistencies have held the young pass rusher back since then.
Though Thibodeaux possesses a ton of talent, New York has already invested a ton into the edge rusher room, giving Brian Burns a mega extension and selecting Abdul Carter with the No. 3 overall pick in last year's draft. Thibodeaux just feels like the odd man out.
Thibodeaux's name has also come up in trade rumors so far this offseason, so it's not out of the question that New York could deal him in the near future.
Green Bay would be a logical landing spot for Thibodeaux. The 25-year-old would step in as an immediate starter on the Packers' defense, and a change of scenery with Matt LaFleur's squad could unlock his potential as a dominant pass rusher.
Additionally, playing alongside Parsons should also greatly help Thibodeaux. The superstar Packers edge rusher is targeting a Week 3 return from a torn ACL.
Green Bay must acquire a capable running mate for Parsons at edge rusher, and though Thibodeaux has struggled over the last two years, he's an electric talent and could be a possible game-changer.
