PACKERS CAN GET A FIRST-ROUND PICK
Posted by Mike Florio on August 7, 2008, 12:51 a.m.
Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the Packers will receive a first-round pick for quarterback Brett Favre, but only if the Jets win the Super Bowl.
The Packers get a fourth-round pick for Favre. It becomes a third-round pick if Favre takes 50 percent of the snaps. It moves to a second-rounder if Favre participates in 70 percent of the plays and the Jets qualify for the playoffs.
Finally, the pick goes to a first-rounder if Favre takes 80 percent of the snaps and the Jets make it to the Super Bowl.
Of course, if the Jets make it to the Super Bowl, it would be the 31st or 32nd selection in the draft.
Curiously, there’s no evidence yet of any term that would dissuade the Jets from re-trading Favre to another team, such as the Vikings. We would have insisted on something like two first-round picks if the Jets had sent Favre to the Vikings, Bears, or Lions.
