PossibleCabbage Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 "Aaron Rodgers be mad" is not a reason to avoid drafting Jordan Love. "Aaron Rodgers is somewhat mercurial, and is liable to be mad for any number of reasons" is a reason to draft a Jordan Love. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more efficient solution is to use the dead money as live money to pay the MVP to play qb and try to win the super bowl, then decide to move on or keep rodgers after this year. Trade now makes no sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green19 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 8 minutes ago, Leader said: That's ridiculous. He very well might want a WR in round 1 - but to declare I'm not returning to the team (for contractual reasons) as a means of "forcing" that selection is stupid. It’s clearly 1 of 2 things... he is either hopeless tired of GB, from the love pick to the field goal in the championship game etc. he is just done. OR he feels he needs to do something to get movement on an extension and for GB to go against their nature in building a team. Seeing as he has literally no leverage in this situation or control of where he gets to go to team wise and the dead cap hit. It would seem silly to try and force a trade. This isn’t Brady where he can literally pick his team. Because of that it seems to be he wants the team to go all in on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemike778 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Not buying this. Bringing everyone back from last season had all the signs of trying to keep Rodgers happy. If its true, its completely blindsided Packers - there is no chance they would have made the various moves they had done if they thought there was any chance Rodgers would leave. Its likely that Rodgers will be traded in 22 and I think there is a good chance its Adams and Zs last season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Alex Trebek's contract with Jeopardy was something like $10m/year. There's no way they're going to triple that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
