packerstk7 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 There seems to be a discrepancy between how much the Jets want Rodgers and think he’ll help them and what they’re willing to pay. The more I think about it the more I want to hold out for 13. Let it get to him battling Love for the job I don’t care. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighCalebR Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 As McAfee loves to point out, Murphy has already said if they don't get what they want he could see Rodgers on the team. Yes, he gave away that we WANT to move on, but he also recognizes the value of Rodgers. Idk why McAfee and Jets fans think that means Rodgers is free.

HokieHigh Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I find it interesting that we never heard anything about Love being shopped. Its not like the packers were just doing diligence on all potential avenues while rodgers was in darkness. There was no talk of Love for a first to help rodge run it back. This org feels so highly about love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nagahide13 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) Packers fans seem to be under the impression that if not traded Rodgers would retire and thereby walk away from 60m guaranteed? Criminy. My understanding is also that if the Packers keep Rodgers for the 2023 season and THEN he retires, they get hit with almost 70m in dead money in '24. Rodgers CANNOT be on the roster next season. They absolutely HAVE to trade him. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/agents-take-how-aaron-rodgers-future-decision-affects-the-packers-bottom-line/ (a little old) Edited March 22, 2023 by nagahide13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there is any provisions in the contract that would limit the dead cap implications if Rodgers were to retire. Could GB get some of the signing bonus/option bonus back and get some cap refund? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be painful, but they can do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagahide13 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I think it's unlikely we see him traded until June simply because GB can spread out the dead money after then. It's better for them to wait even if the compensation doesn't increase, and there's always the chance the Jets could flinch and up their offer.

In a vacuum, that's an extra 30 mil of dead cap and whatever value the Jets would have given up. If the Packers do that everyone should lose their jobs.

It doesn't matter one tiny bit how this Rodgers situation turns out for them for them keeping their jobs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Packers do that everyone should lose their jobs. So is GB just supposed to accept a “conditional 7th”? F that. GB could take their lumps in 2024, & then be home free in 2025. cut Bak & Rasul as expected, then add a couple restructures. & NYJ FO can kiss their jobs goodbye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
