AR wants out?!

Your belly is down a bit from last time I saw your 'tar. You been working out?

I'm down to 15 cheeseburgers a day from 16

How long before the tear-filled, first retirement press conference? I forget the timeline on these things.

He's kind of being a little bitch about the whole thing.

I wonder if he sees the wonderful dramatic irony in the Pack drafting a 1st round QB near the end of his career?

If your boss hired a whiz kid from Harvard to learn your job when you weren't ready to move on, you'd be pissed too.

You think APB throws a fit every time they hire a young new burger flipper for minimum wage?

Wait, maybe he does.

I'm tried of diva QBs. Let's do this.

I think every QB is a diva, though. I don't think anything he did based on what he know is bad behavior or diva like tbh. They team drafted his replacement. In the words of Jermichael Swarley Finley, What do he suppose to do?

They traded up to get his replacement who would not help him win at all instead of trading up to draft a stud wr like he's been needing for years to pair with adams, or any other impact player that could have helped him win now

I’ve decided the funniest possible outcome is if the next host of Jeopardy is Jordan Love.

You mean like the packers did when they drafted Rodgers? Never heard rodgers say "ya know, this really isn't fair to Brent."

You know what else I haven't heard yet? We reached out to rodgers for comment on our anonymous source.

Did he get his own locker room this season? I have to assume yes. Can't be near the plebs.

[bobblehead]

Don't blame him. 8 of the last 9 first round picks have been defensive players, the 9th was his replacement

We were one or two plays away from another super bowl last year. A first or second round player that would have contributed at all, might have given us a super bowl

Yup, rodgers seems like a dick, but the team has done about the bare minimum in the draft and through free agency to help him on offense

Yet somehow we still had an historic season on offense. And somehow if he hadn't pussied out and run the fucking ball on 2nd and goal we might have an Owl under our belt.

Fake ass tweet but funny as hell

Sources tell NFL Network #Packers GM Brian Gutekunst & HC Matt LaFleur called Aaron Rodgers begging him to come back. "We love you Aaron", they said, to which Rodgers replied, "Yeah, Love is the problem, and his first name is Jordan" before hanging up.

Wow.

R-E-L-A-X !!!

Undoubtedly this is fake news crap for the purpose of increasing ratings for the draft on ESPN tonight. Nothing is gonna happen, not tonight, not after June 1, not anytime this offseason, probably not for a good while after that.

If there is anything to it, it's a negotiating tactic to get him an extension. It is beyond belief that the Packers leadership would be such a pack of idiots that they would compound the idiocy of drafting Love by not extending Rodgers long term.

[Spaulding]

As others have posted, it's an organizational decision to draft the best players they feel are available to help the team. No one player is above the team and if they are then good riddance. If Gute and company thought Love was a top 10 talent and still available that late in the first round, it makes sense they trusted their board and went after Love given we're almost always picking late in draft.

Given Rodgers age and with no decent backup (sorry Boyle but he's a clipboard holder) it also made sense to draft a QB who could keep the season afloat if Rodgers went down for a few games, not to mention that if his level of play declined the Packers would have a possible replacement. I wasn't a fan of the pick myself but then again I wasn't a fan of the Rodgers pick when we had Favre and that turned out okay. Love hasn't even been given a chance for the fan base to determine if he's a bust, average QB or a solid starter for the future.

Taking the action to draft Love personally suggests a huge EGO problem. If you consider yourself the best you should welcome competition as it often brings out the best.

Now if the Packers told him during the offseason that they were going to trade him (I don't believe that for a second though as what purpose would it serve and why wouldn't they have traded him when QB's were moving earlier this offseason) then yeah, Rodgers has a right to be pissed and I don't blame him.

Still looking for old articles where Love was considered a Trey Lance type prospect I thought and if goes top 5 then getting Love at #26 seems like a steal.

Might need to load up on the jiffypop for the circus tonight - it's going to be full on popcorn time.

All we need is a story that Gute/Murphy gave Rodgers his locker upon flying out to see him and things will have come full circle.
