Jimmy Garoppolo deal extends buildup to Aaron Rodgers payday

[Teamcheez1]

How much does Aaron deserve? Some of it depends on the length of contract. QB contracts are incremental, so he will be paid somewhere in the neighborhood of Garappalo now, but I'm not sure he gets paid exponentially more.

if garappolos cap numbers stay the way they are reporting, then he will get 37 million in cash in year 1

a-rod received 38.5 million in cash in year one of his current deal signed in 2013

so a-rod is not being neglected or disrespected even a little bit by the team in regards to his contract

JG is largely unproven, if very promising.

Rodgers was probably the best player at his position when he signed the current deal. The comparison between players doesn't make sense. Its what the going rate is for good starting QBs that you are looking for.

If JG got $37 mil in the first year, Rodgers 38.5, and he will get more this time.

But Rodgers has not asked for a renegotiation at all during the contract. So your point about it never being enough likely doesn't come into play. The only way its not enough is if Rodgers (and maybe the Packers) decide its time to move on.
