The Dallas Cowboys will have a very difficult decision to make in the near future.

Cowboys superstar receiver CeeDee Lamb has been holding out as he looks to land a historic new contract. He could be a free agent at the end of the 2024 season and is looking for a new deal -- especially after fellow superstar Justin Jefferson just inked a massive one of his own.

While a long-term deal with the Cowboys should be considered the most likely option, some have speculated a trade could be on the horizon if the two sides can't agree to a new deal soon.

Bleacher Report's Brad Gagnon put together a list of four teams and hypothetical trade packages for the superstar and mentioned the Green Bay Packers as an option.

"Romeo Doubs or Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and 2nd-Rounder," Gagnon proposed. "The Green Bay Packers have a lot of good, though not great or well-established receivers. But in a huge year for Jordan Love and Co., the team might want to go bold with Lamb and sacrifice two of them because they've established the depth necessary to afford that swap...

"In this case, we're presenting the idea of Dallas landing one primary slot guy to more directly replace Lamb (Jayden Reed) along with one of two talented but generally disappointing outside figures. All come cheap right now, and the Cowboys would be foolish to turn away from them as well as some Day 2 draft capital ahead of such an odd-looking season."

A move should be considered extremely unlikely at this point, but if the Cowboys do somehow move Lamb, Green Bay should give them a call.
