The trade involves a first-round pick swap, second-round pick this year, and a conditional 2024 second-round pick that might be a first.

In a Rodgers trade, Acme Packing Company editor Justis Mosqueda called for the Packers to get the 13th overall pick,

calling it the #13for12 movement. The selection swap gave Mosqueda a win even if the Packers didn't get a first.
