(Yes, I know Bakhtiari was injured late last year, but implying that their OL was trash is ludicrous.) |

Why would Rodgers refuse to go to a team like Washington or Miami? Their rosters are every bit as good, and they don’t have Mahomes in the division. |

When the Packers were actually a 'poor' team they only went to 2 conference championship games after the 2010 Super Bowl. Once McCarthey and Thompson were told to GTFO the Packers have been run more than competently.

Not saying he would. Just saying that in all these cases where a guy forces his way out it seems the player still has a lot of control. Teams are not going to trade for a unhappy player. To me the only reason to choose Denver is non football related.

Rodgers has a top 5 OL, top 3 WR, top 10 RB, and a top 10 TE. They also have a solid defense.
This narrative about his current team is ****ing stupid. |

Rodgers doesn’t have much more leverage than he had this year. The Packers don’t even have to trade him.

Green Bay gets: An end to the distraction Rodgers for 1 more year An opportunity to convince Rodgers to stick around over the next 6 months Some control over where Rodgers goes The ability to get modest draft compensation in return Rodgers gets: Control of his future The ability to play for a team who won't be depleted of all assets during his last few years in the NFL. Fair. |

In 2020, Fant/Jeudy/Patrick/Hamler/ Hamilton/Albert O were crazy young and inexperienced so not having Sutton really hurt them. I'm not going to cast stones at Jeudy right now seeing as how he was coming into games without a veteran to take pressure off. Add a healthy Sutton to the mix, along with Javonte Williams and Gordon at RB... you have tremendous opportunities with that group of receivers. I believe the OL is getting better and they have to improve. The OL and QB play are the two areas that will dictate whether or not the other weapons can be a consistent threat. Drew Lock should be on a short leash... maybe he loses his grip on the starting role and Teddy takes over. I don't care which leads the team at this point. Gordon / J Williams Sutton / Jeudy / Hamler / Patrick Fant / Albert O I like that group of playmakers. Again, I don't think 10 wins in 17 games is jumping the shark or being unrealistic. They're not going to the playoffs, but all I'm interested in at this point is consistent improvement. They only scored 21+ points six times last season - that has to change. Defensively, I think they're going to be strong and they're gonna have their work cut out for them with the offenses they play. |

Yeah, Green Bay's interior made KC's look bush league last year. When we found a scrub that was 70 rating we got excited. Green Bay had better guys on their OL bench.

The 49ers had a legendary pass rush in 2019. They made our OL look terrible too, even though it was 10x better than the one we had in last years SB. What is your point?

Tier 1: Kelce Waller Kittle Tier 2: Andrews Hockenson Tier 3: Fant Gesicki Tonyan J. Smith Goedert He’s a good TE, but he’s not even a for sure significant upgrade from Tonyan, who people ignore when talking about Rodgers current group of weapons. I’m not trying to down him though because he could easily enter that 2nd tier this year. |

I do not see Green Bay voiding a year unless it was a act of good faith on a promise to move him if he still wants out at the end of the year. I also do not see them letting Rogers become a FA after voiding the 2023 year) and not get anything really in return for him. |
