1st Round Pick (14th Overall): Traded to the Saints

Good thing about this trade, is we get to care about 2 games each week next season.  The Packers game and then root for whoever plays the Saints. Bit more value for my Game Pass. Good work Gute

Whats the realistic range this pick falls in next year 22 -26ish ?

They averaged 9 wins over the last 5 years, so you figure 10ish wins so anywhere between 20-24 seems like a fair estimate.

2012: 7-9

2013: 11-5

2014: 7-9

2015: 7-9

2016: 7-9

017: 11-5

 

Or 8.3 wins over the last 6. It depends on if you think they are truly on the rise or that last year was a bit of smoke and mirrors combined with injury luck.

Honestly, if you're a believer in close wins/losses, they actually underachieved last year.  Either way, they're going as far as Drew Brees takes them.

They're going as far as that defense takes them. Drew has been a stud his whole career and they still stunk.

The NFL has film in that defense now and knows they can be good, can they keep it up another year. The NFCS is probably the best quarterback division in football so anything can happen really.

So GB moves down 4 spots in RD1, gives up a mid RD3 pick this year, and receives a RD1 pick next year that will likely fall somewhere in the 20+ range, I have no real complaints.  That's a trade GB can make every season as far as I'm concerned.
