Cpdaly23 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Another thing to consider- if he squashes some aspect of what’s been reported, he would basically be confirming everything else by omission. If his goal is to keep some level of plausible deniability while things play out, he shouldn’t say anything at all about what has been reported.

If he outperformed his contract last year, he underperformed from 2015 through 2019 and should pay some of that back. Outperformed? Lol. name the number of lumberjacks who cut 500 trees per year more than the next highest lumberjack. Abt as relevant as your first challenge. Quote If he outperformed his contract last year, he underperformed from 2015 through 2019 and should pay some of that back. ok.... but that's not how this works. Even if you believe that to be true, which I don't. Fact is he outperformed his remaining contract as soon as he won MVP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have some blame in that situation I am completely on his side in that, for what it’s worth. But it is a demonstration of how committed he can be about these things.

He's grossly outperformed his contract. He signed what a 4 year contract and definitely hadn't grossly outperformed it the previous two years.

Fact is he outperformed his remaining contract as soon as he won MVP. at the time he signed his contract he was the highest paid player in NFL history. And it stayed that way until Mahommes got his. No? This wasn't Lamar Jackson on his rookie contract winning MVP, he was paid very well. Edited May 3, 2021 by Arthur Penske 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the reports out there say that a team wanting to acquire Rodgers will have to part with (3) #1 picks, (2) players on rookie contracts, and possible middle round picks. If we can get remotely close to that .. do it, and don't look back. Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a decision-maker for an NFL team outlined what it might cost the Raiders to trade for Rodgers, and it is understandably exorbitant. According to this NFL executive, it would likely require the Raiders to surrender their first-round pick in each of the next three years, two of their better young players on rookie contracts, and maybe one or two mid-round picks. https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/raiders/the-cost-to-trade-for-aaron-rodgers-would-be-astronomical-2343107/ 3 first round picks, best players on rookie deals + mid round picks. Gute has to pull the trigger on a deal like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gute has to pull the trigger on a deal like that. I would think 5 1sts is the asking price in a vacuum. Depends who the players are. Raiders don't have a lot of good players tbh. 2 1sts and Russ is the deal I'd be excited to take right now (btw that offer is NOT coming). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we really arguing that prior to last season, Aaron Rodgers was still doing Aaron Rodgers like things? He wasn't - If he was the Jordan Love pick is never made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
