The Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver room is now stocked with talent after the team selected both Matthew Golden and Savion Williams in the NFL Draft, which could result in the Packers ultimately making a trade to clear out the depth chart.
Romeo Doubs seems to be the most obvious trade candidate based on the fact that he is entering the final year of his contract and already expressed displeasure with his role last season. Plus, he should be in relatively high demand if Green Bay decides to move him.
Here are three trade destinations that make perfect sense for Doubs.
Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers are in dire need of receiving help, particularly following the retirement of Mike Williams. Outside of Ladd McConkey, Los Angeles does not really have any other reliable options at the position. Quentin Johnston has been a disappointment, and Tre Harris and KeAndre Lambert-Smith are both rookies.
Doubs would fit perfectly alongside of McConkey, representing a big-bodied, outside target that would also represent a vertical threat for Justin Herbert.
The Chargers have been a bit stingy when it comes to paying for top receiver talent, but Doubs shouldn’t exactly break the bank with his next contract. Seems like a natural fit in LA.
New England Patriots
The Patriots have definitely worked hard on improving their receiving corps this offseason, but they still need more talent at that spot. That’s especially considering that Stefon Diggs remains a major question mark in his recovery from a torn ACL.
New England has a glut of receivers heading into training camp, but whether or not the Pats actually have a serious No. 2 behind Diggs is debatable. Perhaps it’s DeMario Douglas, Kayshon Boutte or rookie Kyle Williams, but the Patriots could stand to add a more proven option.
Enter Doubs, who would instantly give Drake Maye a much-needed dependable option. Maye was throwing to the worst group of wide outs in football last season, so to be able to add Doubs to his arsenal would be a significant coup.
Cleveland Browns
Other than Jerry Jeudy, the Browns are bereft of reliable wide receivers. Cedric Tillman and Jamari Thrash are interesting breakout candidates, but neither has proven much of anything yet. Then there is Diontae Johnson, who played for three different teams last season.
Cleveland will likely be employing a rookie quarterback at some point in 2025, whether that’s Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel. Do the Browns really want to start a first-year signal-caller off with such a poor group of targets?
If Cleveland can add Doubs and partner him with Jeudy, it would suddenly have something, especially if rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. steps up in Year 1.
