If Stafford and Goff were both young and less risky (i.e. better) the compensations wouldn't be in remotely the same ballpark. An example of a QB who has less longevity AND more risk than those two is Ryan Fitzpatrick lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking about arguably one of the 2 best players in the NFL. Do you really think he's gonna retire? He's not walking away from being one of the best players in the game. A third option is he could just sit out out of spite. That's where he has some leverage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if he really wanted to, he could Jalen Ramsey or Trent Williams it too. Play/retire certainly aren’t his only options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he lowers trade value for the Packers, keeps his Cap Space Hold and he can still host Jeopardy and collect a nice paycheck while audition for his future beyond football.

Deadpulse Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 If GB really believes Love can/will be the future, I feel like trying to maximize Rodgers trade value after an MVP season would be ideal. You are basically trading a short 1-2 year championship window for what you believer to be another decade of contending years congruent with Favre and Rodgers' runs.

Sitting out keeps his contract on the book of the GB salary cap, retiring takes it off but they can retain his trade rights for the next three years, Benefits Rodgers to just sit out.

Seems option 3 is to become a cancer to a locker room he's stated he's no longer interested in being apart of. Once you start badmouthing your GM to players on the team, I'm sorry, I don't care how good of a player, you're done. They'll continue to say he's not available, and teams will continue to submit offers. They'll take the best one in June and move on. Sad it came to this, good luck to the next team that has Aaron. Be sure to do everything he wants personnel wise and never say anything that might offend him. Oh also, make sure you don't do anything to prepare for the day his old self retires either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
