I'm guessing he announces tomorrow or Monday morning. Monday is the start of legal tampering in free agency .. official league year and free agency starts Wednesday. Teams have to be cap compliant. He's got to get this ended soon, one way or another. Edited March 11, 2023 by {Family Ghost} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only getting a couple of 2nd's would be underwhelming. Agreed, just trying to be realistic. I really doubt they include their 1 this year. That above is my floor, my ceiling would certainly include this years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't, but I don't think the Jets are going to wait around a whole lot longer. That's a decent opportunity for him, especially with no other suitors.

I don't think the Packers want him under center this year. Heck, Murphy made that clear as could be. It seems to be the Jets or retire unless somebody else suddenly pops up. Rodgers could be delaying if he's going to retire in order to stick to the Packers a bit. I don't see him retiring though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, likely 2 2’s, 2 3’s, and a 6. That’s my floor. No less, and we eat no more cap than what we must for this last season. It wasn’t that long ago that many GB fans were demanding three 1st rd picks, additional picks and a quality player in return for Rodgers lol. IDC if there’s a presumption that the Jets (or their fans) need to keep pick #13 to assuage Rodgers. That’s not how things work. Give us #13 in return and I’m good tbh.

Until then, he's our problem and that is courtesy of Gute giving him that extension last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying I believe this, but do you think a team would trade like a 7th just for the right to trade Rodgers themselves? How desperate could GB get to just get rid of him? Again, I’m not sure how feasible any of this is but I’ve been throwing it around in my head. Edited March 12, 2023 by Isherwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could make some or all of these roster moves, clear up a shed load of cap space and go out and spend like crazy to build around Rodgers for a Super Bowl push:CJ Mosley – $17m base salary – extend or add void years and convert to signing bonus – he has two years on his deal Laken Tomlinson – $12m base salary – extend or add void years and convert to signing bonus – he has two years on his dealCarl Lawson - $15m base salary, $300k dead cap hit, last year of deal, either extend or cutDJ Reed - $10.5m base salary, cutting would save $8m, probably won’t but could add void years and convert to signing bonusJonathan Franklin Meyers - $11.4m base salary, cutting him saves $11m, but he was pretty good, convert to signing bonus his base salaryDuane Brown - $9m base salary, he is 38 years old, cut him and save almost $5m Corey Davis $10.5m base salary, last year of deal, cut him and only $666k dead capJordan Whitehead - $10m cap hit, cut him and save almost $7m, or extend him as he is in the last year of his dealQuinnen Williams in last year of his deal and has a cap hit of $9.5m, he’ll be extendedBraxton Barrios in last year of deal, cut him and save $5m or extend him P.S I'm sure the Packers bring this up in negotations, that the Jets can easily handle any Rodgers cap ramifications. They are basically saying to the Jets we are giving you the best shot at a Super Bowl in donkeys years. If they free up all this cap and have no QB what's the point, they are primed to make a run As predicted: Barrios cut Tomlinson and Reed judt now extended Thrse and with earlier moves $21m created Then $10m for cutting Davis $5M for cutting 38 year old Brown Lawson on $15m final year of deal cut or extend They'll do something with Mosely and extend Quinnen Willams both with combined base of $27m None of this would be going down unless they are welcoming the Mother Ship Edited March 12, 2023 by Brit Pack 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have agreed to that demand when we should have traded him, not now. That ship sailed and sunk. I really doubt we get 13 overall, hope I am wrong. I’m now watching MU put it to them so a bit distracted! Edited March 12, 2023 by 15412 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Murphy made his comments, it seemed pretty clear to me that GB's priority is to move on. The compensation for Rodgers is going to be light.
