Karlos Dansby wants to play for the Packers

[Guiness]

We are still three years from getting our next QB.

We should all hope that Hudley never becomes the Packer's starter, and instead leaves after his rookie contract because Rodgers is still playing.

There eventually has to be an after Rodgers plan. With the draft and slow to develop plan that Teddy loves. It probably won't be Rodgers that is behind center the next time the Pack goes to a SB.

If Rodgers plays as bad as he did last year this season and the next, then the future may be closer than we think........

I brought this up in a thread last season, Hundley's contract expires one year before Rodgers, at a time when Rodgers will be 35 years old. Not all Qbs last until they are 40. Rodgers could be done when his contract is up at 36 years old. It is not inconceivable that Hundley could be the next man up at QB for Green Bay.

When you throw in the fact that AR was clearly a different QB in 2015 than he had been in prior years, the end for AR could be sooner than we would like it to be.

Yawp. Only time will tell, but the drop off was really alarming. We will see if it was Nelson's absence, the knee, his head or his GF.

Also, consider the possibility that some guys might come for a visit and leave saying they don't want to play for Green Bay. It's not always about what TT does or doesn't do. Not that any of us will ever know, but what if a free agent comes for a visit, TT makes a fair offer and he and his agent reject and say have a nice day? TT isn't going to make a press release to make sure that the fans know that he's at least trying to sign free agents! That would be darn nice of him, now wouldn't it? How do we ever know when he misses the target, but he did everything right and the player thought too much of what he is worth in the market? And again, perish the thought, but what if a player just didn't want to play in Green Bay after visiting the team?

I doubt a marginal player would say that. I doubt many players would say that, but it at least could come into play, especially if the player/agent is being patient and trying to create leverage for the best offer.

We have excellent facilities, history plus a winning tradition with arguably the best QB in the game. If a player and his agent turn down a fair offer I suspect that player has a unrealistically high opinion of himself. After all this time and not a lot of interest a guy like Cook must know he isn't in high demand. With him still unsigned I suspect Cook is either an egomaniac or more likely we never made him an offer.

[Tony Oday]

Holy crap you are actually complaining about his play last year?! He might not have been all world but good lord he didn't have his top two targets for most of the season and still threw 31 TDs and only had 8 ints.

Boy, I sure hope you're wrong. I really hope AR wins another ring before he calls it quits.

[Tony Oday]

This year he will.

But it wasn't like he turned into Geno Smith. In the end his numbers were about average for an NFL starting QB. His bar is set so ridiculously high than anything less then otherworldly we all think he is going downhill fast. It wasn't just Jordy's absence. The O line was a mess, Lacy was fat and out of shape, Cobb was beat up and Adams played like crap. Heck, with only a slow Jones, Abby and Janis we damn near beat AZ in their place for another trip to the NFCC game.

All true, but there will always be some players who do not want to live in Green Bay WI. A similar offer from another well-run team might be all they need to turn down a Packer offer. The opportunity to win a SB is there with a lot of other teams as well.

I personally am hoping for Rodgers-A-Palooza in 2019, when Hundley takes over and Rodgers gets traded to the Bills.

I'm thinking more about the less than precise accuracy he showed even in training camp, before all the things you mentioned began. Remember that in camp he was asked, and was a bit testy about his accuracy. Maybe it was the knee, but maybe it was the start of a new phase in his career. If the latter, he will have to adjust. If he does, things will be fine. If he doesn't, well......

No athlete in his mid 30s is the same player he was 10 years earlier. If he plays as if he is, it can be problematic.

I think Rodgers will play two more seasons for the Packers, Ted will trade Rodgers to a west coast team so he can finish his career back home and nearer Olivia Munn, Ted will sign Hundley to a longer term deal, Hundley will be great - the Favre/Rodgers heir, and someone on Packerrats will claim Ted was lucky Hundley dropped into the fifth round.
