Cousin Eddie Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Having a HOF QB join your team that guarantees $millions in ticket and merchandise sales is extremely enticing to a lot of owners. More so than some high draft picks that may or may not pan out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I think it will settle out around total value of an overall top 10-15 pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFLGURU Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 If throwing some money in for more or higher pick(s) is an option, I'm in. It's gotta be a reasonable amount though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzPackfan Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Maybe we need the Lions to get involved and help facilitate a trade like this: Jets: Give Up - Picks 13,43,74 + a 2024 2nd Get - Rodgers, Pick 18 Packers: Give Up - Rodgers, Pick 78 Get - Picks 43,45,55 + a 2024 2nd Lions: Give Up - Picks 18,45,55 Get - Picks 13,74,78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know, I'm sure that's negotiable. Eat some of Rodgers contract for higher picks from the Jets. That's a question for Gute/Russ Ball on if they could work that financially.

Houston traded Brock Osweiler and a 2nd round pick to the Browns. It saved Houston 16 Mil in cash and 10 Mil in space. So using precedence it’s roughly 10 Mil in cap space for a 2nd.

Sandy Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 I was reading a solution proposed by a former NFL capologist, and he suggested the conditional picks will linger into 2025. The deal would be Rodgers for a 2023 first rounder and a 2024 conditional pick that bottoms out at a 3rd for missing the playoffs and maxes out as a first with a conference championship. But if Rodgers then retires (becoming a one-and-done for the receiving team) then Green Bay would give back a 2025 second rounder. The reason it has to happen this way (and not just include it as a condition for the Jets 2024 pick to us) is to avoid having Rodgers "retire" before the 2024 draft and "unretire" after it - we only give up the pick if he doesn't play at all in 2024. Throw in a poison pill where he can't be traded to the Vikings for good measure and call it a day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny timing, I was thinking almost exactly this earlier today as well - that I thought the conditional picks would go into 2025 exactly because the trading team wants to ensure they get at least 2 years out of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crfalker05 Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 (edited) GB trades Rodgers NYJ trade #13 and a conditional 24 4th. Becomes a 3rd if he starts more than 10 games. Becomes a 2nd if they made the playoffs in 23 or he led the league in TDs. Becomes a 1st if they win a playoff game or be is league MVP. If GB has to eat some extra cap, so be it Edited March 7, 2023 by crfalker05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to have some conditional element to help protect gutey looking poor if Rodgers tears it up elsewhere, which he’s certainly capable of.
