Packers face hurdles in potential Jonathan Taylor trade with Colts
Summary

The Green Bay Packers have shown interest in Colts running back Jonathan Taylor but face significant obstacles in pursuing a trade. Reports indicate that the Packers' draft-pick situation complicates any potential deal, with speculation that acquiring Taylor would require a costly first-round pick. Packers beat writer Matt Schneidman questions the effectiveness of adding Taylor given the team's underlying issues with blocking. As the NFL trade deadline approaches, opinions suggest that the Packers must weigh their options carefully, including whether to keep current player Josh Jacobs and address other roster needs.
