There's a lot to like about the Green Bay Packers heading into the 2024 National Football League season.
Green Bay surprised some people in 2023 and even pulled off a playoff upset. Young Packers quarterback Jordan Love is one of the biggest reasons for the team's success and he recently inked a new deal and will be around for the foreseeable future.
The Packers are loaded with exciting, young talent and now have higher expectations heading into the 2024 campaign. One thing that could help take the Packers to an even higher level would be landing a bonafide No. 1 wide receiver.
It's easier said than done, but Bleacher Report's Alex Kay proposed an intriguing trade idea for Cincinnati Bengals superstar Ja'Marr Chase.
"Cincinnati Bengals receive: 2025 first-round pick, 2025 third-round pick, WR Christian Watson," Kay said. "Green Bay Packers receive: WR Ja'Marr Chase. Thanks to Jordan Love's emergence as a franchise quarterback, the Green Bay Packers came out of the 2023 campaign with hopes of contending for years to come. While the team has a bright future, the Packers could expedite their championship window and improve their Super Bowl odds significantly by bringing aboard one of the game's best receivers in Ja'Marr Chase.
"Green Bay has plenty of quality receivers on the roster, but none have broken out as a true No. 1 star. The team had four different wideouts record at least 28 catches for 422 yards and four touchdowns last year, but leading receiver Jayden Reed's 64 receptions for 793 yards and eight scores leaves a bit to be desired. Chase would immediately establish himself as the go-to option in the Packers' system. He's put up over 1,000 yards and hauled in at least 81 balls in all three of his NFL seasons, including in 2022 when he appeared in just 12 games due to injury."
Landing Chase may be extremely unlikely, but a deal would take the Packers' offense to another level.
