Glad the saga is finally over. The return looks decent, especially considering the Packers aren't picking up any of the $60M.
Here's a thought, the Packers could take WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba at 13, and trade both seconds to get back into the first to take TE Michael Mayer. Love would then have two first round pass catchers, when Rodgers had none drafted by the Packers.
Now we will all see what the MLF system is like and how well the coaching staff can teach it.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!

So let me get this straight: the Packers get
A first-round pick swap in 2023
A high second-round pick in 2023
A likely first-round pick in 2024 (at worst a second)
A $60 million financial obligation taken off their hands
For
A player that was never going to play for them again.

Needless to say I am smiling ear to ear. I dont give a fuck what they got but Gute actually did very well. He not only cut out the team bacteria but has it set up so My Man Love to get some nice toys. I hope he drafts a 1st rd WR just to shit on erron one last time.

LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Great post up there, Bretsky. I laughed out loud, for real. Mad’s posts good too - I laughed when he said the Packers should draft a wide receiver at #13 just to get one last shot in on erron.
But in answer to the thread title question, at least the answer didn’t turn out to be “jobbed.”

People can say what they want, but Rodgers enabled the Packers to move on from Brett Favre without missing a beat. A very tough feat. And I suspect his post-Packers career will have a better legacy than his predecessor's.

I am gobsmacked that packers got so much in the deal.
I'm quite cool with a house landing on the wicked witch, but then again I'll be following the Jets and won't mind if he has a great season becuz I identify with old ppl given up for dead.

NEW YORK, NY — Legendary Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has officially signed with the New York Jets, confirming his retirement from professional football.
"You have to know when to walk away," said Rodgers. "I'm excited to put on a New York Jets jersey, and leave pro football in the rearview mirror."
Sources inside the Jets organization were reportedly shocked to receive the word from Rodgers. "How much peyote is he smoking??" asked General Manager Joe Douglas. "Eh, who cares. Even if he's high, just to have a legend like Rodgers on the field with us amateurs - it's going to be amazing. I know the NFL will be sad to lose him, but their loss is our gain."
Rodgers took months to make a final decision, laboring over whether it was time to hang up his cleats. "Professional football is an incredible grind," said Rodgers. "I've enjoyed my career tremendously, but in the end, I realized I was done with all the film watching, the practicing - that endless pursuit of perfection. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about any of that with the Jets. It's going to be an amazing change of pace."
At publishing time, Aaron Rodgers had asked if anyone had some psychedelics because he just sobered up enough to realize he had actually signed with the New York Jets.

Probably already discussed but it looks like trade is not final until Packers rewrite Arods contract to make it more cap friendly and then turn in signed contract to NFL.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

It sounds like more than $40,000,000 kicked down the road.

Do punts and field goal attempts count against his snap count percentage?
