Parker Gabriel, Broncos beat reporter: Welcome back to the roundtable, gents! Denver’s mini bye is over after the Thursday night loss last week to Kansas City and now the Broncos are getting ready to host the 2-3 Packers as one-point, home underdogs. So much for a rejuvenating couple of days off.

OK, ESPN NFL whiz Bill Barnwell recently put together a list of 15 trades to consider before the Oct. 31 deadline and four of them involved Denver. Impressive. One that seems timely given the infiltration of cheese heads this weekend into the Front Range is this one:

Packers get: WR Jerry Jeudy, 2024 fourth-round pick

Broncos get: WR Romeo Doubs, 2024 second-round pick

What say you guys? It’s not a winning Powerball ticket, but I’m cashing this one in as soon as Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst says yes. A somewhat similar trade in the offseason featured the Jets trading receiver Elijah Moore and their third-round pick (No. 74 overall) to Cleveland in exchange for the Browns’ second-rounder (No. 42). Remember, the Broncos swapped their second-rounder in 2024 for New Orleans’ third-rounder as part of the Sean Payton trade, then dealt the lower of their own third-round pick and the Saints’ to move up in the draft to get cornerback Riley Moss. So in this scenario they’d end up with a pick in each of the first three rounds and then no fourth-rounder.

I suspect you both might also say yes to this deal, so give me something else to consider while you’re at it.

Ryan McFadden, Broncos beat reporter: Replacing Jeudy with Doubs won’t change a thing. But man, it would be nice for the Broncos to get that second-round pick, so I would most definitely pull the trigger. It feels like Jeudy’s time in Denver is nearing an end and keeping him will not change the course of the season, so the Broncos are better off getting the pick and hoping they can unlock Doubs in some way. But maybe instead of getting Doubs in the deal, Denver should ask for the second and a fourth or fifth. The Broncos have shown that spending a ton of money is not going to fix the situation. So I think it’s time for them to build through the draft and acquire as many picks as possible. At the same time, you want to see what Denver has with rookie Marvin Mims Jr. He has flashed this season but he is still not playing a ton of snaps and hardly is targeted when he is on the field. Sure, adding Doubs will be OK. But if Denver plans to move on from Sutton or Jeudy (I don’t think they are trading both, by the way), the Broncos should try to find a deal that can possibly get them more than one pick. I’m not saying no to that trade idea but if there was an alternative, I would try to trade for a second and a later round draft choice. If it’s not Green Bay, there has to be a team out there that doesn’t think Jeudy is a lost cause and can get more production out of him with better coaching.

Sean Keeler, sports columnist: Why say “yes,” when you can say, “Heck, yes?” Which is why it’ll never happen, of course. Doubs would be a fun project, a big target who ticks the right boxes. But the problem with Green Bay and Gutekunst is the problem with just about every NFL front office right now: They know you’re trying to unload Jeudy. They know he’s a goofy malcontent, because they just saw him dancing around Arrowhead Stadium like a goofy malcontent on “TNF.” They smell a lemon. They’re looking at Jeudy as if he’s a $200,000 house in Boulder County: What’s the catch? (Ironically, on that front, not enough of them. Not enough big ones, at any rate.) I mean, I’d love Doubs as part of a package, but the most important return, for Jeudy or anybody else on the block, is draft picks. A rebuild needs cost-controlled talent, with or without Russell Wilson’s contract weighing on your salary cap. The Eagles have two second-rounders in ’24. The Lions have two third-rounders in ’24. So do the Seahawks. The Texans have two fourth-rounders. Let’s talk.
