15412 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I hope they shut Rodgers down immediately on any idea he will have any kind of sway on personnel moves. His title is QB, not GM, not Asst GM, not President, not a Vice President. He plays football. Now shut up and earn your money. The very worst thing any team can do is cede power to a player. If we're going to do that well then let's just put an AR on the helmet. We will likely re-structure is contract, my only hope is we don't make it that much harder to move on from this aging QB down the road. The Love pick is looking more and more like a mistake all the time. Can we get a 3 for an unknown? You can draft unknowns in Round 3 of this draft. Even if we get a 2, we traded a 1 and a 4 for a 2. The Packers brass should have remained quiet on the A-Rod situation, no need to blubber all over him. Things could change..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the team knows Love doesn't have it or he does and he walks do we again draft a QB 1st Round to make sure Rodg remains "focused"?

If Love has it, he's not walking. If he doesn't, of course because we will still be looking for a viable post Rodgers option. I'm not a big fan of adjusting Rodgers deal. It'll push more money into future cap hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
15412 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I agree spilltray. But if Love has it, we don't pay 2 QB's. If Love has it AND we have re-structured 12 we may have issues we do not want. The team has a real good idea what they now have in Love. 12 knows too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReadyToThump Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I'm looking forward to watching Jordan Love in the preseason. I'll just say that. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really question whether drafting Love caused Rodgers to be more focused. I truly believe having a full year under his belt with the new offense and working closely with MLF and the OC are the reasons why Rodgers play returned to elite status and why he'll be the MVP this year. Love can wait as long as Rodgers did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ Watt rumors: Texans star could be done in Houston - Sports Illustrated I don't follow, why would this sway my opinion? Any outside or inside player could warrant a move, I'm just saying Rodgers should have no pretense of power to force the team to make moves. Input sure, but no weight to it. Practice squad players may have some ideas too... (I'm kidding with the last line, I'm just saying while 12's opinions should be welcomed and considered but it should be made clear they have no weighted power of any kind) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think anyone in GB has a "real good idea" of what they have in Love? Was it the cancelled pre-season, the abbreviated camp, or the complete lack of live snaps in his rookie season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This whole Watson thing is hilarious to me. His new team is going to cater to everything he wants and he's going to end up with 4 first round receivers, 4 first round offensive linemen, all free agent dollars spent on offense and he's going to set all sorts of records and win absolutely nothing.
