Around The League V.2


Totty

Recommended Posts

His contract is the biggest draw back and why I don’t see the Raiders being interested cause not only is it the money it’s the draft capital as well, but I did see something that mentioned he is open to reworking his contract. 
 

Not sure I could trade the 7th pick for Rodgers with the possibility of it being a year or two gain for the Raiders.

Apparently, Saquan turned down 12 per and wants CMC money (16m), going to assume that is what JJ will cost as well. 

He reportedly said that he doesn't want to reset the market. For guys like Saquan / JJ I don't even think the number is the biggest factor, it will likely be the GTD money. We'd be smart to just franchise tag him ($10M) and then go from there. 

If we don't resign him, I'd prefer Kareem Hunt.

I'm also not convinced that he's a great fit for the culture and "Patriots" way.

This is a big point. Arod thinks he’s the smartest guy in the room same with JMD. Guys like that tend to clash.

It'd also be a huge risk to trade away premium draft capital to acquire him when he could retire after next year.

100%. 

Love Rodgers, but dude needs to go to a defensive minded HC with a mostly ceremonial OC. 

I remember a year or so ago that Tennessee was a rumored destination for him. That would've probably been a good fit.

The Packers reportedly want a 1st + more for him. 🤮

I could see someone going for it if they had a first to spare. But nobody that needs him has that. And he's pushing the age limit. A 1st for, what, 2 years of elite play? That would be considered a bust. 

Maybe 2-3 years ago, but he's been to wishy-washy on retirement for me to go all in like that.

I could see the Jets doing it potentially. It's just a risk because he could retire at any second.
