Piggy backing this from Cory. I'm not sure if Patrick Peterson is even available via trade, but we've heard rumors that Earl Thomas IS available via trade. Do you think either would help the Packers? What would be fair value trade for their current team and the Packers?

Edit, here's a video on if the Packer should trade for Peterson from a year ago.

Will they help? Yes, both are great players. Will they require too much in return? Almost certainly.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

In my opinion, Earl Thomas is one of the best safeties in the league. I believe he'll command a first round pick. Same with Patrick but as a CB; he's one of the best out there.

Peterson would be more appealing because he is a significant upgrade over Damarious Randall, who we traded away, at corner. You may be onto something.

I really like Earl Thomas. Wonder if the Seahawks would make a trade for HHCD and a draft pick (3rd round) for him? Both he and HaHa are on the last year of their contract.

I think Earl Thomas was (and maybe still is), one of the best Safeties in NFL history... and if the Packers are going to a single high Safety defense (like some suggest)... then Thomas would be the perfect fit!

But Seahawks already know this, and I heard that they want a minimum of a 1st and 3rd round picks. Also Thomas has talked about retiring before when he was injured, and was hoping to get to play with the Cowboys atsome point of his career.

The Cardinals have seemed to do everything in their power to keep their best of the best..., so I doubt they're going to let one go unless they simple have over spent and can't afford someone.
