Just getting a kick at how everyone interprets Gute's comments today completely based on what they WANT to happen. I've seen "sounds like they're prepping for a divorce" and "sounds like they're hyping Jordan to drive up his trade value". All that matters is what Aaron wants. Unfortunately.

Gute's reply there could just as easily mean "we have to wait to hear if Aaron wants to play here or elsewhere" as it could mean "we're at the point we're looking to deal him". And in this case those are 2 drastically different things. The part that few know is that if Aaron wants to stay in Green Bay, then he'll get his wish without fight.

And in this case those are 2 drastically different things. The part that few know is that if Aaron wants to stay in Green Bay, then he'll get his wish without fight. Let me sum this up a little more direct for you: 2021: There's no way Aaron is playing anywhere unless it's Green Bay 2022: There's no way Aaron is playing anywhere unless it's Green Bay 2023: We're OK with Aaron playing elsewhere. Plain as day Gute is ready to move on. If you want Aaron back you speak exactly like you have in years past, Aaron was saying "no way in hell" I'm playing for GB in 2021, and Gute said "we're not trading Aaron Rodgers." He doesn't need to wait for Aaron's decision, he will out of respect, but this is all you need to hear to know that Gute has moved on, and if Rodgers wants to come back, I only think it happens if #1 Aaron takes a nice paycut, #2 Aaron is OK we're not getting the outdated band back together, and #3 and most importantly, it doesn't jeopardize Jordan Love's future in GB. Based on Gute's comments there in 2023 it's : There's no way Jordan is playing anywhere unless it's Green Bay. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Anonymous Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Let me sum up reality more clearly for you. Gute could be desiring to trade Aaron Rodgers as much as I want to bed Paige Spiranac, but if Aaron Rodgers says he wants to play for Green Bay, he's going to be playing for Green Bay.

That's never true for someone as sensitive as Aaron Rodgers. Gute says "well I save 10m in cap space by you being here, I guess you can split reps and battle Jordan for QB1." The guy isn't staying here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first thing yu do is tell his majesty he will be playing under Frenchy's system this year, not a hybrid of his own choosing. He'll find the bench if he doesn't. Then you tell him he will have to compete with Love in camp and throughout the year. Then you tell him Cobb, Lewis, and Tonyan are gone. Lazard and Crosby may follow them. Then you wait for him to talk. Or more than likely whine. Then you repeat yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gute isn't looking out for the longevity of the Packers, the first thing the new president will do is show him and anyone else the door, why would he want that? Murphy isn't going to fire a GM with 1 year left in his tenure and Gute is smart enough to know that. I don't think LaFleur has much in the way of a sack, but we're talking about a guy who interned under Wolf and rose to power under Ted, two guys with a steel set. Murphy has 2 years left, no one is fearing him anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firing your successful GM right before an NFL Draft because he's making the moves he was hire to do sounds like the messiest thing a president can do?? You're contradicting yourself.

Mr Anonymous Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 To avoid future misinterpretation, there 2 distinct points to this saga... The team will abide by Rodgers wishes. If he wants to be traded, they'll grant his wish without hesitation. If he wants to come back, he'll have his job waiting for him. I say this as a factual representation of the situation as far as I know it. It is my OPINION that Rodgers will tell the Packers he wants to stay. I do not know this with any certainty. It's simply my belief that he'll want to stay. Maybe the dark man in the cave told him to go be a Jet. Those 2 combined are why I continue to maintain that Rodgers will continue to be the starting QB for the Packers. One is based on what I know, the other based on calculated logic.
