If all you'd get would be a fourth round pick, then it seems a useless trade. By all accounts Flynn has improved greatly and would be a fine backup for GB this year.
What the hell would you do with a fourth? Draft another QB to develop and leave yourself - as the team did two years ago - with no backup QB who has any experience whatsoever in the NFL? Sign Daunte Culpepper so you can draft a project in the fourth round?
Nah, doesn't sound good. Give Flynn one more year to increase his stock, draft a young buck in this year's draft, let the young guy sit at the #3 spot this year, then see what happens.
And now that Clifton's re-signed, trading Flynn and Hawk for Joe Thomas wouldn't even make sense (that's my crazy-fan-trade-of-the-day, though I prolly should've written "Joe Thomas and Josh Cribbs").
