The only one to say it was sent into the league was Justo, so it probably was never sent to the league. Personally, I'd be embarrassed if our GM and FO didn't know the rules of the league they've spent their entire lives working in.

I bet they discussed Waller, but it never went further than that.

I'm Justo's source. He thinks I'm a GM. 

(He'd probably fall for it too)

You think it's a dead issue with Waller, his agent and his ego? The team tried to trade you! That does not sit well with players. Plus, he wants a new deal and the Raiders are probably privy to the asking price of that new deal.

This may not happen with the Packers, but I find it hard to believe he's going to be a Raider if the asking price was only a 2nd round pick. 

They didn't try to trade him, they wanted the best WR in the NFL and the Packers said "here is the price."

"Hmmm I got a message from Norm Gutekunst, must be Gute's brother. What a source!"

Got it from a pretty solid source, Packers v. Giants October 9th in London. 

Not guaranteeing it or anything, but I think you can pencil it in.

I heard from two of my sauces that "GB is looking to do something BIG during the draft.  Stay tuned and please click the link."

I hope this is accurate because I want to go.

And they agreed to it! You are arguing semantics, but reality is the Raiders were willing to trade him.

Based on what?

There's a difference between trading a guy and shopping a guy. That isn't semantics. If the Packers had a shot at Aaron Donald, but the Rams demand Kenny Clark in the trade and the Packers do it, doesn't mean the Packers wanted to trade Clark.

Old Guy lives in his own reality, I've been there once, it's frightening.

I feel it. I was going through it on that first day of free agency.

Based on a beat reporter who has connections. He could be completely wrong but the reporter is standing by his report and said Raiders and Packers were discussing Waller and it was agreed until the league said no.

And the confusion on the rule was because it was added during Covid where you can’t trade a guy with a contract for a player who hasn’t sign his tag.

So it’s based on reporting… everyone can take it with as much or as little salt as you want. But the report is claiming Waller was part of the original deal.
