Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay on the Outs?



Quote:
Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to return to Green Bay Packers, sources say
Reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers is so disgruntled with the Green Bay Packers that he has told some within the organization that he does not want to return to the team, league and team sources told ESPN on Thursday.

The Packers are aware of his feelings, concerned about them and have had team president Mark Murphy, general manager Brian Gutekunst and head coach Matt LaFleur each fly out on separate trips to meet with Rodgers at various points this offseason, sources told ESPN.

"As we've stated since the season ended, we are committed to Aaron in 2021 and beyond," Gutekunst told ESPN. "Aaron has been a vital part of our success and we look forward to competing for another championship with him leading our team."

Rodgers has not budged this offseason, but neither have the Packers, who have made it known they are not interested in trading Rodgers anywhere.

The San Francisco 49ers called the Packers on Wednesday night, a source told ESPN, and the Los Angeles Rams inquired about Rodgers in January before they traded for Matthew Stafford.

The Packers quickly dismissed the Rams' overtures, the source said.

The Packers have offered to extend Rodgers' contract, sources told ESPN.

Rodgers is unhappy for a variety of reasons, with some of it dating back to last year's draft when the Packers didn't inform him before trading up to draft a quarterback with their first-round pick. Some took this as a sign that his days in Green Bay could he numbered.

He also is at a different point in his personal life, having recently gotten engaged to actress Shailene Woodley. Rodgers also has hosted "Jeopardy!" and said it would be a dream to become the full-time host. He could play football and host Jeopardy! together.

Rodgers has made cryptic comments about his future in Green Bay, but he has told others that he does not want to return.

On draft night, the Packers' biggest issue isn't who they land, but whether they can keep the former NFL MVP.

Rodgers' contract contained a $6.8 million roster bonus due in March. It could have been converted into a signing bonus that would have freed up more than $4.5 million in salary-cap space for this season but instead it "vested as scheduled," a source told ESPN at the time. It's listed as an automatic conversion in Rodgers' contract but even that has to be signed off on by both parties. It's not known if the Packers tried to convert and Rodgers refused to sign off on it, or if they did not attempt a conversion.

What?
That's the thing. We aren't winning enough games to be relevant, with the kind of QB play we've had since Manning retired. Lock has the physical abilities to be fine. And, in total fairness, Lock hasn't really had a fair shot at it. He was stupidly put on the IL for most of his first year. He had a new coordinator (who sucks, but I digress), and no offseason his second year. So, maybe they catch lightning in a bottle, and he stops making his 4-5 stupid throws every game? He's supposedly doing all the right things this offseason. But I wouldn't bet any real money on it.

As you guys are experiencing (to our envy), you get a Guy in there, you have a chance to win every game.

It would be great if we made a jump to, say, a wild card in 2021. But it would only be great if it was a step to a better thing. Get a guy like Rodgers, and games with you (and the rest of the dirty AFCW) become meaningful again.

That's the issue.
Some guy on ESPN says Surtain, Lock, Patrick and the next 2 R1s for Rogers and Stokes (CB).

If I was GB and we knew there was no building that bridge again and we have to trade him to Denver, I’m not asking for all draft picks.

I’d ask for some thing like:

Noah Fant
Bradley Chubb
2022 1st
2023 3rd

I’m asking for young proven guys

You just gave away 2 of their best players and pretty much all of their pass rush.

That’s what I would ask for. But if a trade like this is the offer I’m taking that all day if I’m Denver. Would be a horrible trade for GB

If the Broncos want to pull this off they're going to have to give up some established young players. Green Bay isn't just going to ship him off for draft picks.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if Chubb is part of the deal.

Denver should at least wine and dine the Packers before they **** them like that.

No way Green Bay would be stupid enough to trade Rodgers for that return.

That's precisely why Denver would be foolish to do it.

You don't trade for a guy that you think can make you a contender by giving away pieces that make you a contender.

The biggest reason the Titans, Ravens, and Bills couldn't compete with the Chiefs is that they have no pass rush. The Broncos giving away their pass rush to get Rodgers would essentially put them in the same boat.

It makes no sense at all.

Maybe from the Denver side, sure. But not from Green Bay's perspective.

Nobody wants Bridgewater or Lock. The only way they are part of the trade is as a warm QB body to go with whatever REAL players are involved in the trade.

Yea coming from a Broncos fan

That’s an awful deal for the Packers.

I love how people think the Broncos are the only team that can get Rodgers. You think the Raiders are going to sit by and watch the Broncos steal him away for that? Why wouldn’t they just offer the same thing and Carr?

The only way this happens is if the Broncos add guys like Jeudy and Chubb.
