The Green Bay Packers and New York Jets are hoping to strike a deal for Aaron Rodgers before day one of the upcoming NFL Draft.
It will be important for both teams to agree on compensation prior to the draft, with the trade having huge implications towards each teams plans. The Packers are expected to receive two second-round picks for Rodgers, after originally being believed to receive the Jets ' 13th overall selection. Green Bay are also said to be receiving a player from the Jets in the trade, but the final details are yet to be ironed out.
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler has confirmed that the trade between the two teams could even happen on day one of the NFL Draft - in 20 days time. Fowler reported: "A lot of this deal, I'm told, remains pretty much done."
