This makes a lot of sense (Adams wanted a trade, LV needed to get something for him), but it also makes no sense and perfectly explains why teams like NYJ and LV are usually bad.

Next year they'll have Rodgers, Garrett Wilson, Adams, Lazard, Hall, etc. there and hire some hotshot like Ben Johnson... and then ignore the OL again, get Rodgers killed and still stink because they have to play a backup QB like Brett Rypien for half the season.

Also - Rodgers came very close to breaking 300 yards! That Hail Mary sure helped his numbers.
As not an AFC East fan, this looks like the owner or GM playing Madden and wanting to make moves because they look cool.

Fire the head coach? Likely looking to next year.
Trading for a previously-top WR to pair with your previously-top QB? Win now.
Giving a quality DL permission to seek a trade? Likely looking to next year.

I don't know what kind of shape Aaron and Davante will be next year, but it won't be as good as their best Packer seasons.
