This isn't a football decision. They don't have an owner willing to write that check with one foot out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote “First of all, Lamar Jackson’s a fantastic player,” Douglas said, via SNY. “But where we stand is, it would be disingenuous and negotiating in bad faith if we went down that path. So, right now, we have our plan, we have our process and we’re sticking to that.” As far as Rodgers, Douglas noted that there isn’t much urgency on getting the deal done now. But the Jets remain optimistic that it will happen eventually. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/03/27/joe-douglas-pursuing-lamar-jackson-would-be-disingenuous-and-negotiating-in-bad-faith/ That's 2 potential suitors out of the mix Looks like this could come down to the Colts or Patriots, if he does move on from the Ravens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the second the Jets offer and Ravens match, then Rodgers wont go to NY because thats how he rolls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they're both better at the actual QB position so you're not wrong there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the risk of Rodgers throwing a temper tantrum if he feels like second choice outweighs the nominal gain of the Jets trying to make their position look better by exploring a Lamar deal that both they and the Packers know would be silly to follow through on.

Ray Reed Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Local insider has said same thing about Lamar’s commitment to a pro-level physical routine the past year or so. Almost like it’s not a coincidence the guy misses more practices for “non-covid illness” than any player i’ve ever seen lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a few years between his one stellar season and now, and the in-between is marginally decent at best with tons of red flags, primarily his ability to hold up long term and commitment, beyond just how he would fit in a different offense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also missing that playoff game. Could have taken shots to reduce the swelling snd toughed it out to try to get a ring, but the re-injury risk was high. It’s all about the payday for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
