Imagine Marvin Harrison Jr. on the Green Bay Packers next to Jordan Love.
A blockbuster NFL trade idea sending Marvin Harrison Jr. from the Arizona Cardinals to the Green Bay Packers has emerged.
Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports proposed the following trade idea between the Cardinals and Packers:
Packers get: Marvin Harrison Jr.
Cardinals get: 2026 second-round pick (52nd), 2027 third-round pick
Harrison Jr. appeared in 12 games for the Cardinals last season. He put up 41 catches for 608 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns.
The Packers lost Romeo Doubs to the New England Patriots in free agency this offseason. Since Arizona is rebuilding after parting ways with Kyler Murray, Harrison Jr. could be traded next.
"They have the same situation at WR as usual — good depth, decent players, but no apparent No. 1. And they let their best receiver (Romeo Doubs) go while only bringing in Skyy Moore.," Vacchiano wrote. "Harrison has been a disappointment with the Cardinals, but that could be all about their miserable quarterback situation. Pair him with Jordan Love, and his numbers should soar. It would be a big deal, and complicated by the fact that the Packers don’t have a first-rounder again until 2028. But Matt LaFleur could ask his old boss, Sean McVay, about why players are more important than those pesky high picks. Then he could call his brother Mike, the new coach in Arizona, and get this deal done."
Harrison Jr. was the fourth overall pick in the 2024 draft. He has 103 receptions for 1,493 receiving yards and 12 receiving touchdowns in the NFL.
The Packers lost to the Chicago Bears in the wild-card round of the 2026 playoffs. Green Bay hasn't won a playoff game since 2023.
Jordan Love has turned into a solid QB under Matt LaFleur. Love finished last season with 3,381 passing yards and 23 passing touchdowns while completing 66.3% of his passes.
The Packers' offense would become more explosive with Harrison Jr. in the fold. Green Bay doesn't have a bona fide No. 1 WR for Love at the moment. That must change for the Packers to win a Super Bowl.
It will be interesting to see if Green Bay makes another big trade this offseason. The team acquired Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys last year.
