Also, as you can see just a few posts above yours, somebody that is a friend and has actually spoke to Rodgers obviously doesn’t agree with those in the media.
Holding out into the season would force the Pack to either play Love (who would crash and burn in humiliating fashion) or trade for another QB. Either scenario makes the GM look even more foolish for his 2020 draft than he already does.

Gutekunst doesn’t want the above. Hence Rogers has leverage.

The whole “he’s under contract, end of story” position is overly simplistic.

I negotiate for a living. What do you do?

It's a very real possibility.
No, they won’t be “forced” to do anything and the chances of him actually sitting out and wasting one of the few years he has left while on a team that’s a SB contender are extremely slim.

LMAO

I guess that makes you an expert here, huh? ROFL

Sitting out is also an empty threat. He’s 38 years old and isn’t going to waste one of the few years he has left when his team has left a shot at a SB. It’s not happening.

It kinda does, brah.

And my experience tells me Rogers isn’t bluffing.

Ok, let’s start here:

When did a Rodgers actually threaten to sit out or retire?

Even his buddies that have actually spoken to him aren’t claiming he did.

Skyy God 05-06-2021 08:34 AM
Also, for the no trade clause crowd, Rogers’ ability to threaten retirement if he’s traded to an unacceptable destination is real leverage.

You don’t play all your cards initially.

Rogers want out, Pack don’t want to trade him.

Do you even ****ing read? AJ Hawk, who spoke to Rodgers personally, has already said that it’s pretty much a 0% chance that he retires.

Oh so now you aren’t just an expert on negotiating, you can predict the future and/or read minds too!

Time will tell.

Or they’ll fire the GM to pacify Rogers.

Who the **** knows.

So Rogers is blowing his leverage by blabbing to AJ ****ing Hawk about his true intentions?

It’s possible but seems unlikely.

Hawk’s opinion isn’t gospel.

So you prefer to take the word of the clickbait media over a known friend of Rodgers who spoke to him personally about the situation?

Come on Aaron pull a Jake Plumber. Retire after the trade and put lawyers to work.
