That's what I'm saying...

According to this guy... it's not so much June1, but June 2nd. Either way, they should keep him.

"As former NFL agent Joel Corry – now a contract expert for CBS Sports – explained to The Athletic, the Packers could free up $16.05 million in salary cap space by trading Rodgers beginning Wednesday. The dead cap space would be one of the highest in NFL history at $21.152 million, but better than the alternative.

If a trade happened between the NFL Draft – when Rodgers’ trade wish first became well known – and the end of May, the Packers would’ve been on the hook for a record-setting $38.356 million dead cap charge."

Yep, but they still need to find away to get Love enough reps and game experience to know what they have. Doubt they want to get a high first and not know if they need a QB or not.

I still don’t know you would trade a superstar QB that had you almost in the Super Bowl to play a unproven rookie.. I wouldn’t do it.. **** that guy..

I still think this whole drama stems from that lackadaisical showing in '19 from Rodgers.

I remember then, after watching them get curb stomped in the NFCCG, that Rodgers had the body language and performance of someone who just didn't give a shit anymore.

I think that's what ultimately led to the Packers drafting Love.

What i find odd is that i haven't heard or read a single person mentioning it as a possible contributor.

I'm 100% convinced it was a MAIN contributor to the drafting of Love.

It absolutely was. On top of that, I think the main reason he refocused himself and had such a great season this past year was to make the Packers look foolish and force his hand out of town.

The Packers went after Love because they 100% believed Rodgers' best days were behind him. There's no question about it. They never expected him to perform like he did last year. He basically threw a wrench in their best laid plans, and now he's making them squirm.

I laugh at both sides. They both deserve exactly what they're getting.

I doubt they thought Rodgers best days were over, but they didn't have plans to give him another extension. He knows it and is making a stink to force it, whether it's in GB or somewhere else.

Love isn't a threat to replace him today but it's not a mistake that he is doing this right after winning MVP. His value will never be higher than right now.

Rodgers is my new favorite player...Trolling the Doinks for leverage while giving their fans false hope is an excellent off-season gift.

The smoke will clear and Bridgewater will be their starting QB...after Lock fails again.

Packers arent trading their MVP QB...there is a reason it has never happened in NFL history. Manning was damaged goods hopped up on HGH...he had missed the previous season.

The only thing missing is for Fields to show potential once they bench Dalton....

After a 7-10 season...maybe they'll draft Miller's replacement. That should get their fans pumped...

I would rather have a pissed off Mahomes sitting at home. Than several future Viking(?) first rounders.

Eureka 06-01-2021 06:24 PM

Packers should just take all they can from Denver and move on. Love should eventually be the starter.

Maybe, they do it next year as they know what compensation they will get.

And if Love fails...they will run the GM out of town.

Asking a player with no experience to follow a MVP QB is asking a lot...if Rodgers had stunk it up last year, it would be a different situation..

GB hasn't had a shitty QB in 29 years...their fans will expect a winning season immediately..

Don't see much to disagree with here, but as a matter of principal, he stays this year whether he plays or not. If he doesn't want to play, then put him on a reserve-did-not-report list. The fines can't be forgiven as in the past, then trade his ass to anywhere after the season. He's a drama queen. Talented player. Future HOF. Eff him

RunKC 06-02-2021 09:19 AM

If I’m Rodgers I try like hell to get out of there next Spring. The Packers are good at building an OL.

After that nothing else.

I would push for Miami if I was him
