That usually is not Thompson’s way. Green Bay did have a chance to trade with Dallas. Cowboys VP Stephen Jones talked with Alonzo Highsmith of the Packers late in the first round, offering Dallas’ 34th and 101st picks overall for Green Bay’s 27th overall pick. So Green Bay, by gambling that Clark would have been there at 34, could have dropped down seven spots, picked their guy, and had a high fourth-round pick in the swap. The Packers obviously didn’t want to risk moving down seven spots.
The trade would not have happened, as Lynch would have been gone, but there was apparently an offer on the table. The big question would be whether Denver called GB.
