PossibleCabbage Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I wonder how much of what's going on here is a "position solidarity" thing. It's pretty clear that NFL players can't "force trades" like NBA players, even if they are superstars. If they were, then Houston and Seattle would be looking for new QBs this year. But if anybody can force a trade in the NFL just because he wants it, it's an MVP QB with an understandable grievance. It's sort of like how RBs hitting free agency kept wanting to "reset the RB market" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWhitehurst Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 So Andrew Brandt surmises that if the Packers were to trade Rodgers, due to Cap issues, it would more likely be in 2022 than now. That sounds like the best take I've heard. If this proves to be what happens, then I wonder if this affects the Packers approach to the draft this year, e.g., drafting more for the longterm and players that fit with Love?

Pay 12 whatever the **** he wants and give Love a swift kick in the *** out of town. Then you apologize to 12 for doubting him in the first place. Guy has carried this organization on his back for 15 years and Gute, for one night, thought he was the smartest guy in the room, and now his house is on fire. The end. So well said. Gutey being absolutely stupid ,can't admit he made a mistake. Unless his marching orders are coming from the top he needs to be let go . If not then Murphy has to go. After 30 years of hof qb's and only three superbowls (not spoiled ,fan since the early 70's ) because we always seem to draft for the future. Our top brass has taken advantage of the fact we are the best fan base in pro sports. This twice now (maybe) albeit different circumstances that we have a franchise qb wanting to leave. If this h happens it's time to find new leadership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has always been the case just by looking at AR's contract. If he doesn't get his extension, next year a trade is very much in play. Love will have to show something before that happens. 12 doesn't have as much leverage as he thinks unless he would actually be willing to sit out, which would be worthy of all this drama. Until then, he the highest paid QB with 3 years left under contract. We will be drafting for the future, as always.

SpeightTheVillain Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I hope they trade him. An extension should be out of the question. I know fans want to look at everyone else for why Rodgers has only one Superbowl but maybe Rodgers should look inward first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
