The Green Bay Packers have made some drastic player moves after losing to the L.A. Rams.

The Green Bay Packers have been one of the more successful NFL franchises in NFL history. With a total of four NFL championships, the Packers have asserted their dominance in the league numerous times.

Currently the Packers seem to have lost some of its dominance. The Packers sit third in the NFC North with a record of 3-3-1.

Coming off a heartbreaking loss to the undefeated Los Angeles Rams, the Packers immediately looked to make some pretty drastic moves.

They traded long tenured RB/WR Ty Montgomery to the Baltimore Ravens after a game costing fumble against the Rams. While this may not have been a shock to most, the Packers’ next move raised some questions.

The Packers front office decided to part ways with All-Pro safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, sending him to the Washington Redskins for a fourth-round pick.

This was an interesting and unexpected move since they arguably dealt their best defensive player for virtually nothing.

Management has said that they are still looking to contend for another Super Bowl however, the questionable moves put the Packers near future in jeopardy. Trading away key pieces will have a drastic effect on the team’s Super Bowl chances.
