Green Bay Packers fans were initially excited about acquiring star wide receiver Deebo Samuel, but as the details of the trade surfaced, frustration quickly set in. Many are now calling the deal a massive overpay.
Reports indicate that the Packers surrendered multiple high draft picks and a key player to bring Samuel to Green Bay. While the move aims to give Jordan Love a top-tier weapon, many fans believe the front office paid too much.
Social media erupted with criticism once the trade terms were revealed. “We got fleeced! This is another Davante Adams situation, but worse,” one fan vented on X (formerly Twitter). Others labeled it one of the worst trades in team history.
While some analysts argue that Samuel’s versatility makes him worth the investment, concerns remain about his injury history and whether he can justify the steep price. Meanwhile, the 49ers are being praised for capitalizing on the deal and adding future assets.
Now, the pressure is on Samuel to prove he was worth the gamble. If he helps lead the Packers on a deep playoff run, the criticism may fade—but if he struggles, the backlash will only grow louder.
