Packers interested in trading down before targeting tight end in first round?

The Green Bay Packers might see trading down in the first round as the solution to the problem of taking a tight end so early in the 2023 NFL draft.

According to Albert Breer of SI.com, the Packers are a team that “would consider moving back” during Thursday night’s first round, with the thinking that a tight end such as Michael Mayer of Notre Dame or Dalton Kincaid of Utah would be the target after trading down from No. 13 overall.

“I’ve heard Green Bay linked to both of the top tight ends in the class – Notre Dame’s Michael Mayer and Utah’s Dalton Kincaid – and 13 would probably be a tad high for either of them,” Breer wrote.
