23' 1st + Mercer + Johnsson for Meier and
Walsh for Reimer
looks good to me, but Mercer is the best piece NJ could offer that isn't Hughes/Nemec. I really doubt NJ lets Mercer go.
SJ needs RDs since shipping out Merkley, so targeting Walsh, Casey, Mukhamadullin, or Nemec from NJ in a Meier trade makes sense, and NJ is likely more willing to trade them since being loaded in the position
Corey Masisak of the Athletic proposed these Mercer trades:
23'/24' 1st + Mercer + Filmon/Hauser + Johnsson for Meier
or
23'/24' 1st + Mercer + Filmon/Hauser + Johnsson + Blackwood for Meier + Reimer
which doesn't give SJ any RDs, so I like your offer better
