It's not just the Brock Purdy success, but the fact that they invested 3 FRPs into Trey Lance. One of them is their starting QB next year. Trey Lance did not look the part this year at all. Granted it was 2 games I believe. After next year for Lance it's 5th year option decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be really hard to include a '24 pick when the '24 season happens after. What's stopping the team the Packers trading him to convincing Rodgers to "retire" before the draft, and then unretire after. Put it in the deal whoever they pick becomes our player. I'd not be fond of that sort of deal because you want to select your own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But trading for Rodgers is effectively admitting that the 49ers made a huge mistake with him. So you've essentially invested 4+ FRPs into the position assuming San Francisco gives up a FRP. That's a LOT of egg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Guy Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Said it all along and I'll say it again. He's going to Vegas to play with Tae and win another MVP. He wants five like Peyton has so he can have his claim to being the GOAT. Blame the lack of championships on surrounding cast.

If the Jets owner is willing to give up the 2 - FRPs they'd be the leader in the clubhouse. If he goes there the Jets have to unload Wilson. Rodgers plays two years, and you don't get to see Wilson again. You have to pass on Wilson's 5th year option and the Jets are back to square one QB wise. Problem there is what can you expect to get from Wilson? Little to nothing. That is a lot of cash to eat for the Jets between Wilson and Rodgers contracts.

It was something to put on at the bar when nothing was going on if nothing else. Yeah I watched a little bit on YouTube but I couldn't get invested. I'd probably have to live in a city with one of those teams to actually care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugger Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 If Peter King is correct I'm having a hard time believing the Jets or any other team giving us 2 first round picks for a 40 year old QB with a big contract who's best days are behind him.

The value of draft picks has diminished greatly over the last few seasons. Throw in desperation and two firsts might be in play. Let's say you're the GM of the Jets and you drafted Zach Wilson and have never led a team that's gone to the playoffs. You're getting fired if you don't get it right, and right now. You bet the future on the present just for job security. The same situation is happening in LV and WAS, and you have a desperate coach in Tennessee. Someone will pay the draft picks because for them it's Rodgers or unemployment. Edited January 24, 2023 by Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record.....his "best days" were one and two years ago. And a broken thumb ago. I mean....there is the "other" side to this. And again, I hate all of you that are giving me hope that we can move on from Rodgers and acquire at least one first round pick for him.

I like that it seems nearly certain that the Packers would get at least a first round pick for #12 .. possibly much more.

Sell Sell Sell! I believe that he plays for the Packers or no one at all. That is what I believe. It is not what is best for the team, unless winning 10-13 games next year is considered the "best thing". If we can pull even a single first round pick, I'm all for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
