5 things Packers must do to win Super Bowl after quiet trade deadline

USA TODAY NETWORK The trade deadline has come and gone without the Green Bay Packers making a significant move to upgrade the team, meaning their roster is pretty much set in stone for the rest of the season. It was no surprise to see Brian Gutekunst stand pat, as there were very few options that actually made sense for Green Bay, especially if looking only at the players who were actually traded somewhere. They were obviously not in a position to make big swings like the Bears and Jaguars did for Jeffery Simmons or Jordan Davis at defensive tackle, respectively, due to the hefty draft capital involved. DeForest Buckner could have been an option, but he only wanted to go to the 49ers. Adding Quenton Nelson to the offensive line would have been nice. He was not cheap though and is a left guard only, with the right side more of the issue right now. Running backs Jonathan Taylor and Tony Pollard ended up not getting moved.
