The Packers' struggles could be the Jets' gain

Concerns that the Packers could be “very bad” this season have fans of the Cowboys paying attention to a 2027 first-round pick. Dallas owns Green Bay’s first-round selection in 2027, but the Jets have a crucial angle built into the Quinnen Williams trade. That deal sends Williams to Dallas and includes a term tying the 2027 pick to the higher of two selections Dallas will have. As a result, if Green Bay finishes bottoming out and the Cowboys do not, New York would receive the Packers’ 2027 first-rounder. The Jets still hurt their own cause Sunday by blowing a 10-point lead to Green Bay and mismanaging late-game and overtime scenarios, while also holding the Colts’ 2027 first-round pick.
