3 MOVES Green Bay Can Make Thanks to the BACK

[bobblehead]

Who is the backup QB?

Boyle, who is dirt cheap and was the backup last year over Love. I actually like what he has shown in the limited time we have seen him.

[bobblehead]

No one will give up anything for him. There are QB options all over the place this off-season, so why would Love be of interest to anyone? He's worth almost nothing at this point. It was a huge mistake to draft him.

QBs are starting to realize that playing for a bad team isn't good for their long term earning potential. Guys moving off their rookie deals will be far more demanding moving forward. Think a guy like Trevor Lawrence or Joe Burrow will remain with hapless organizations in the future...seeing the career arcs of Stafford or Watson?

I don't see the need to draft your QB for the future anymore. College QBs are coming into the league more ready and in greater numbers than ever before. Wasting a pick on a guy to sit around and learn won't pan out. A kid like Rodgers wouldn't last until the end of the first round anymore. Teams are far more impatient with QBs. There will probably be 4 or 5 taken in the first round this year, on top of all the FA options. Guys like Darnold, Wentz, Goff, Garrapolo, Prescott are being viewed as expendable because the inflow of talent has become so strong. If you think anyone would even give up a 5th round pick for Love at this point, you are smoking some good peyote.

While I don't disagree with much of what you said, you are foolish to think your assessment matches that of GMs around the league. Love had a fist round grade by many teams. He has had a season of tutelage under a respected QB guru. To think that after a year of seasoning and his signing bonus being paid in full that no team is willing to offer a second is kind of weird thought process to me. (see how I did that without being insulting and condescending)

It was a bad pick...unless you believe that it got Rodgers to buy into the coaches philosophy. Rodgers just had his absolute best season in over 5 years. We ran the ball more and better than we have in his entire career. If we can now use that to our advantage and flip it back into a second I'd be OK with the pick.

Great post, the league is changing almost every year, I also agree the Packers made a mistake with Love. I hope I'm wrong..

Well that’s why I said I agree with “Much” of the Post. Teams will ultimately fall back on Love’s college tape in evaluating him in a trade and consider him having a year in development in pro system so I believe he would fetch more then a 5th. Probably somewhere around what you describe considering his friendly contract. You have teams like the Washington and Philadelphia that are desperate for QB’s so I could see them as targets.

The bigger problem I see is if Gute is willing to cry Uncle yet and move on from this experiment admitting basically it was a failure.

If Rodgers regressed this last year then I’d say fine let’s go on this “Love Journey” and see what happens but we literally have a team that is a few pieces away from being VERY dominant and probably one of if not the most dominant Packer Team Of All Time Winning the whole damn thing.

It’s time to abort the whole damn thing!!

[GB-Brandon]

This is it!!! It’s now or Never!!! There is no more putting these things off!!

[RashanGary]

I don't think it was Love last year

Love was drafted for his career, which they hoped would be longer than 1 year.

For When?

[RashanGary]

For When?

Rodgers could go down this year the same way Tonyan, Lizard and MVS could all improve as they gained experience

[RashanGary]

Nothing stays the same Brandon. Stop living in yesterday

[GB-Brandon]

So it’s this Gigantic Insurance Policy with A Huge Premium!! It guarantees 10-6 and a playoff appearance but NO SUPER BOWL!! SWELL!!! What a bunch of Posers!!

If thats how they roll into this next season I’m “tapping out”. Waste of time!!! I’ll watch games and stuff but it’s pointless to take it it any more seriously. We’ll see what happens.

[GB-Brandon]

Nothing stays the same Brandon. Stop living in yesterday

He just won the League MVP with the highest graded season EVER!!!!!

[GB-Brandon]

If Rodgers gets hurt we aren’t winning shit anyways!! Dumbest Shit I’ve ever heard!!!

[Bretsky]

Love was drafted for his career, which they hoped would be longer than 1 year.

At this point I'm confident he can be an effective practice squad QB for well over one year

[GB-Brandon]

Rodgers could go down this year the same way Tonyan, Lizard and MVS could all improve as they gained experience

Love & Tonyan & Lazard & MVS = $50 Tickets @ Lambeau on Stub Hub and don’t tell me I’m full of shit!!!! That’s what happened at the end of 2018. People were actually giving that shit away for FREEEEE around here!!!!
