The Green Bay Packers have made a few big moves this off-season to address their offensive line and secondary. Nate Hobbs and Aaron Banks were both signed to monster four-year deals. However, Jaire Alexander still being in Green Bay would suggest they’re not done making moves this off-season.
Now there could be whole new starter on the trade block.

The Green Bay Packers could potentially trade starting wide receiver Romeo Doubs as the NFL draft approaches in 2025:
To avoid a yearlong mystery with the two of them, Pro Football Focus’ Bradley Locker suggested the Packers could instead look to trade Doubs before the 2025 draft, calling him their “best trade asset” as they continue their search for a bona fide No. 1 receiver.
While Doubs might fetch the most value on the trade market, though, the risk might be too great for the Packers to take without a clear succession plan in place for him.
The Packers would still have Watson, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Bo Melton and Malik Heath on their roster without Doubs, but consistency has not been a hallmark of the group. Reed is promising and finished just shy of 900 receiving yards in 2024, but his usage has varied from heavily involved to virtually absent over his first two seasons.
There is also Watson, a deep-threat speedster, but he could miss the first half of the 2025 regular season for the Packers as he recovers from his season-ending knee injury.
