WHAT IF DA VIKES OFFER A FIRST ROUND DRAFT PICK FOR FAVRE ?

[SMACKTALKIE]

I would not want to trade Favre to Minnesota, even for a first.

I would accept the following trade: 2009 first, 2010 first, 2009 second, 2009 sixth, 2010 second, 2011 second, 2011 third, and 2014 first, and five players.

Throw in Favre, third round picks in 2009 and 2010, a fifth in 2009, and a tenth round pick in 2010 and I would make that trade.

Could you break that down according to the trade value chart please.

That's not netting a first round pick....did they swap in the first round, or later rounds....by the way, you are also jacking the thread....

Netting a first round pick wasn't my point. You said that the tampering charges wouldn't net the Packers anything. I was just pointing out that it could--if the Vikings are found guilty (by the commish) of tampering.

BTW, they swapped 3rd round picks.

It's a tough call, but I'd probably do it. It would help the Vikes this year, but in a year or two, they'll be looking for a QB again, and we'll potentially have an outstanding player ready to break out into stardom.

Bretsky doesn't like the softie threads; this should be a tough call

I'm a bit surprised though

It seems most of the forum is willing to wash their hands of Favre and go a relatively unproven QB with upside.

I find it interesting that over half would be against receiving a first round draft pick in a lopsided deal (for a 1st round pick) with our division rival for a guy we clearly don't want anymore

What's your vote anyways ??

I agree and the situation is not going to go away no matter where Favre goes anyways. Fuck it TT, have big balls and do it.

I bet Goodell wishes he could force the Packers to release Favre so he could go to MN. The hype and ratings would be off the charts. At this point I want to see it happen because it is already a big mess so let's make it a big fucking mess.

I've already stated my thoughts several times. I'm cool if Favre wants to retire. I'm cool if Favre wants to come back to the Packers. I'm cool if Favre gets traded. The only thing I wouldn't be cool with is him getting trade to Minnesota or Chicago. Period. Doesn't matter the compensation.

Agree 100%.

I'm with you. A top 5 pick is tempting but I just couldn't let Favre wear purple.

I can handle this...but for those trashing him and saying we don't want him anymore.. I'd think they'd favor a first.

Not a chance. No WAY no how. Not for ANY draft pick. It makes Minny better, you CANNOT help with that.... Especially NOT this year.

Was I emphatic enough? :P

RG, c'mon. A-rod is the answer! We're surely going to be just as good if not better by unloading the second best player at the most important position in the nfl for an unproven "rookie".

As they said in Head Office "Make the sale"...

if its a number one.

I'm really torn on this one Partial. Really torn. Quite honestly, I'm tired of the Diva act. Considering ONLY that, I'm happy to move on. However, trading him to Minnesota is the WORST possible thing we could do with him.

I agree with all the opinions that Favre is better in 08 than Rodgers will likely be, but, the Diva shit has to end. Even if it affects 2008.

The thought of Favre playing anywhere else except Green Bay sickens me, but, looking forward to "will he, won't he" for the 8th year in a row does too, maybe even more than playing elsewhere.

But, the question was trade to Minnesota. NO. Tampa, hmm. Maybe. Coming back to Green Bay on a "one year" deal. NO. Two years? Maybe.

Rodgers? Good Lord, I've got no idea.

[pbmax]

Even better! Sorry Ras.

How 'bout you just let those tampering charges stick and take their first rounder anyway and then trade him to the other team, netting you a first and a fourth?

[pbmax]

The Bear's got to swap 3rd rounders with the 49ers, but you are right, the fourth was simply forfeited.

Because of the decision, the Bears and 49ers will switch third-round selections in the 2008 draft. As a result, Chicago now will have the seventh selection of the third round and San Francisco will have the 12th pick of the same round.

STOP is you er

Even if MN tampered I don't think they have to give their pick to us silly; TT just did this to bend over the Vikes and the Favre camp
