Who would you trade Rodgers for?

[packerbacker1234]

3 way trade that nabs us Ryan/Flacco and Andre Johnson or Adrian Peterson.

Gotta get 2 for 1. Ryan looks like the best 1 for 1 trade value, since he's younger.

This exchange is kind of funny, if you stop and think about what 'impersonation' means.

1. That Atlanta team picking 3rd to get Ryan was horrible. Ryan is a stud.

2. Baltimore missed the playoffs before they drafted Flacco. Next thing you know they're in the championship game. Coincidence? I think not.

3. Why is there only hope for Leinart? Young has actually won NFL games, something that until this past week even our very own Rodgers hadn't done.

4. Manning overrated? Are you crazy? He will probably go down as the best quarterback to walk the earth ever.

5. Big ben overrated? How? Sure, there D is good, but he carries that offense. He has the moxy to win games when it matters (same can be said for VY). Thinking Roethlisberger is overrated says everything we need to know. The guy is a star imo. I would trade Rodgers + any other Packer for Roethlisberger and I would come out WAY ahead over time imo.

6. You might do Rodgers for Roethlisberger and Peterson? You had better execute that trade as fast as you can before the Vikings/Steelers wake up, because Rodgers is a huge step down from either of the other two players involved imo.

This post is looney.

Never have you been so lucid as when you typed those last words.

Aww man, Skin. You beat me to it.

My fingers were just itching to prime up the quote, bold, and submit buttons exactly like that with a funny, short anecdote followup. Damn.

Well, seeing Arod for the past year plus, his upside is still tremendous at what 25-26 years old? Personally, I can't think of one player I'd really want for Arod at this point. He's a tremendous leader, plays the most crucial position, and knows our offense in and out. Let's go down the list:

Adrian Peterson- The closest I would go to trading Arod, but his injury history scares me, as does the short shelf life of NFL RB's...esp. with his violent running style. Look at Tomlinson in SD right now.

Matt Ryan- The closest QB I'd trade for, but no. To trade ARod, you'd want to ENSURE that the QB you are getting can play in the same system, but most importantly have a FOR SURE upside to even ARod's. I believe ARod will be a top 5 QB for the better part of the next 10 years or so. I belive Ryan will be too, but who's to say Ryan will be better? Thus, not worth the trade IMO.

Mario Williams- He may be great, but one dominant DE doesn't affect winning the game as much as one dominant QB.

Patrick Willis- He's great, but good LB's are a dime a dozen in the NFL. Great, young QB's are not....

Drew Brees- He's a great story, but I'd be afraid how short and small he is. He might be a system guy that strives in the NO offense. Besides that, he's what 30 or so? No thanks.

Tom Brady- Prob. the best player in the league by far, when healthy. Great poise, leadership, accuracy, what a winner. Too bad he's 32 and coming off a blown out knee...No thanks, but it's close.

Big Ben- I like the guy. But I don't think he'll be around by the time he's 32 cuz of his injury history. He just takes too many hits...way too many. No thanks.

Flacco- I respect Flacco, but where's the puke emoticon?

Peyton- I thought he was in decline early last season, but I was wrong. Personally, I think he's got maybe 2 good years left with those bulky knees. Nope.

Eli- See Flacco. Except Eli is kind of a bitch.

-------------------------------------------------

I really think it would take a package of draft picks and great young players to get Arod, but I doubt TT would EVER trade Arod, at least until he talks about retiring a dozen or so times...

Good post

Although I love me some P. Willis

The really interesting thing to me is that with Rodgers you have three years of learning experience over Flacco and Ryan for very littler extra in actual age.

Rodgers- 25 born 12/2/83
Flacco - 24 born 1/16 85
Ryan - 24 born 5/17/85

Rodgers is 13 months older than Flacco and 17 months older than Ryan, but is entering his 5th NFL season while the other two are in their 2nd. Phillip Rivers has been in the league one more season than Rodgers, but is a full two years older. Same for Rothlisberger, less just 3 months. Of course Rothlisberger has a lot more playing experience.

With Rodgers the Packers got the opportunity to let him set for a good long time (3 years), yet still have a long time for him to gain playing experience before hitting his prime QB years (late '20s through mid 30's)
