There’s disagreement among high-level Packers officials on whether the long-term cost of an elite receiver like Will Fuller would be worthwhile, Dianna Russini of ESPN.com tweets. The Packers have discussed Fuller with the Texans, but it’s far from a given that they’ll complete a trade before the afternoon deadline. 
Fuller, who is playing on a $10.16MM fifth-year option salary, profiles as an interesting rental option for the Packers. Through seven games, he’s been Deshaun Watson‘s favorite target, catching 31 passes for a team-high 490 yards and five touchdowns. Of course, acquiring him would mean giving up significant draft capital, especially since the Texans have insisted that they’re not keen on trading players with potential for 2021.
The Packers could certainly use a weapon like Fuller, given their lack of production at wide receiver. Davante Adams has been leading the charge with 43 catches for 502 yards and seven touchdowns in just five games. Meanwhile, the rest of the group has combined for a mere 38 catches, 622 receiving yards, and four scores.
The Packers passed on their opportunity to nab an elite wide receiver in this year’s draft, and they’re window to trade for one is on the verge of closing. The NFL’s trade deadline — 4pm ET/3pm CT — is just hours away.
“… only target”
fixed

Don’t do it GB. We need much more than a receiver to compete with the best this year. Maybe using our 1st rounder on literally any other position rather than QB/Special Teams to start…
For the life of me, I still dont understand drafting Love. Rookie deals are what 4 years? Well thats how many more years rodgers has. If you dont trade rodgers then basically Love is just an insurance policy should rodgers get hurt. Not what any team should be using a 1st or 2nd rounder on that is just a few pieces away from a superbowl. Love is going to be a free agent without starting a game and packers will be in a similar situation patriots were in with jimmy G. Either you let the guy walk as a free agent. Give an unproven QB big time money to be a backup. Or you trade him away for a late 2nd/early 3rd rounder 4 years from now. Either way i dont get it
The Love pick is less irritating than passing on Metcalf!
Both of you are right! I get SO pissed off every time I see Metcalf dominating in a game knowing he fell RIGHT INTO the Packers laps and they were too freakin stupid to realize that they had the opportunity of the century right in front of them. It drives me crazy! The Love pick was just plain dumb for the reasons outlined by Sportznut. Sure would’ve been nice to have some defensive help this year instead! Just a bunch of completely inept fools running the organization that I love and have loved for my 49 years on this earth. There is no excuse for the actions they have taken over the last year…other than plain stupidity. I can only thank god that Bill O’Brien was already under contract by Houston or these geniuses would’ve hired him instead of LaFleur to coach the team. Mark Murphy, Ted Thompson, and apparently Brian Gutenkunst seem to think they are smarter that everyone else in every room they enter, and that’s the true sign of a fool. I am just disgusted with this organizational “leadership”
How about being a Patriots fan and seeing them pass on both Lamar Jackson in 2018 and take N’Keal Harry over Metcalf in 2019. The Pats really need to take drafting decisions away from Belichick. He is horrible at drafting talent and his lack of draft success is really starting to show its negative effects here in 2020.
any clue what the price might be? They need to go for it with Rodgers playing like this but he’s probably not worth a #1
it’s a second round pick. that’s what houston wants for fuller
If it’s a 2nd round pick, take that and a 4th and try and get Quennin Williams, or take a 3rd and try to pry Dalvin Tomlinson away from the giants he is the exact player the Packers need. Big strong, tough at the point of attack as a NG or DT.
Idk I’d think maybe they would “want” a 2nd becuase he is on his 5th year option but Idk what I would pay. He is like many an elite potential but can he stay on the field in the cold weather he will be playing on a lot more? Gb really needs their picks as well. Idk if I could part with MAX a 4th rounder for him. But I’d really not offer more than a 5 given what the chargers got for their safety.
GB hasn’t surrounded Rodgers with weapons . they passed on a wr in the draft and they desperately need some . watching the game the other day his wrs dropped a ton that hit there hands u can win if u can’t catch. they focused elsewhere in the draft so now they need to trade for a wr then draft one in the next draft .
I wouldn’t consider Fuller “elite.” He’s definitely good but guys like Adams, Julio, and Hopkins are “elite” to me.
I was going to say the same thing. How in the world is Will Fuller elite???!
Compared to MVS and EQ Brown he’s Randy Moss.
The guy ja ALWAYS hurt. Stay away
Should aim at Ross and Njoku
Swallow your pride without having to publicly admit your brain fart: offer Love for Gallup
Ridley is the better target.
If that were the case I’d prefer we offer Love for Julio instead. Yeah he’s older but he’s proven. Having another actual elite wr would open up so much more of the offense and convince rodgers to not even contemplate potential retirement while he’s here.
Fuller is worth a third and late round upgrade. He’s solid though and I really like the fit. I think they should do it if the price is right.
Trade Love and Valdes-Scantling to ATL for Calvin Ridley
Can someone please find Superman and have him reverse time so the Packers can hire a GM with a freakin clue? And for god’s sake, it’s time for Mark Murphy to realize the game has passed him by…like 5 years ago. This regime is a complete joke
i wouldnt call Fuller “elite.” good, but not elite.
Typical Packers. Talk about everyone do NOTHING. Talk about a Inept franchise and throwing away 2 HOF QB careers. Look at their draft this year. What were they thinking??
