AR wants out?!

[RashanGary]

Rodgers would have tried to force more money regardless of what happened with last years draft. Glad we drafted a QB. Let 12 be the jeopardy host. We’ll never forget you, Erin.

And whatever comes will be worth not caving to the selfish money grubber.

[Spaulding]

Until I see Aaron flat out say it or tweet it, I don't believe his time with the Packers is done.

This almost never works, though. What happens when he says fuck it, imma embarrass a fool and decides to come back in summer ala Favre? This is dumb.

They should have dealt him before the draft. His value is torched now because the what-could-have-been is now known. I would call SF and see if they'd do Rodgers for Lance straight up now 'cause I doubt they'll even get that sort of offering. Recall Favre netted a third.

I mean, I don't think it's much of a coincidence AR or his people used the first day of the 2021 Draft to press the issue in public. His view, the Packers gave him a shocking middle finger on the first day of the 2020 Draft. This appears to be his repayment. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

He isn't where favre was. If he comes back into town a week or 2 into camp they will welcome him and he is the instant starter. Unlike Favre, he works out in the offseason and doesn't spend camp getting past shoulder tendinitis. Plus he would then have a great season and we could trade him next year when it actually makes sense to, unless he decides to stay.

Love is in a good situation. Good team. Hopefully 3 1st round picks for Rodgers. The cap gets immediately fixed with Rodgers out. Love is in the second year in the same offense and has had a full year to iron out some of his flaws. I like every football year, even the ones that don’t end in championships. I’d be ok without Rodgers. I’d be ok with a step back. It’s just football.

WHAT IS THE LOCAL WORD ON JORDAN LOVE ?

I listened to talk radio nearly the whole day and head a lot of juice, some with legs and some BS

On three separate referenced (two national and one local) they referenced Jordan Love not looking good in practices this year.

Have you heard anything at all on this ?

I think it could be over. A lot more going on here. Rodgers is unhappy I am guessing about some other bone headed decisions as well. Can't blame him. If it has come to this point, I suspect he plans to sit this year out. And the best reports I hear is that there is a real impasse. They don't know Rodgers. He will definitely take the Jeopardy gig or just sit out.

I've supported the organization for a while but I think I am done. The whole Love pick was just stupid. The organization has been making bad decisions for a long time and now it's coming hime to roost. It goes back to 2014.

It was a fun 30 years.

The Packers should have taken the Broncos deal and drafted Justin Fields.

This is REALLY where I am as well.

If Denver really offered up pick 9 and two firsts plus.........JUMP at that deal.

Take Justin Fields as your future QB, and load up around him.

I don't think this is about money; Rodgers has changed and not for the good.

I was listening to Steve the Homer True today and he discussed how Rodgers was so pleasant, easy going, and really amicalbe to talk to ten years ago. He said if there was one question he'd ask Rodgers and without hesitation he's ask "what the hell has changed with you" ? Said he's night and day a different person now as opposed to early years.

I fear a really unahappy Rodgers can be a bad thing. I have supported Rodgers through much of this but not too much is coming out . Logic says you part ways

LISTENED To former GM Mike Tannebaum (who sucked as a GM). He was grilled and asked to explain the GB scenario. He noted in today's NFL it's common courtesy in a scenario like this to give a QB a heads up that it might happen. And when GB offered up another pick, to ensure they got the QB to replace Rodgers, most likely Rodgers felt like it was an extra kick to not get the heads up. He's not saying right or wrong, but he's saying it's kind of reality and up to each organization how to deal with it....whether it's ahead of time or not.

True. Trading him would have been nice. It’s complicated tho. In a weird way, I think the players have more respect for the Packers by not caving. All those guys are important. To cater to Rodgers would be a bad precedent. It might work out to just go this way. If Rodgers wants to take his ball and go home, I’d rather lose the right way than win the wrong way.

I can't jump ship, but I agree the Love pick was just a stupid move

Exactly right. Gute even admitted last night he made errors in communication.

Too little, too late. What a shame.

This is not Rodgers fault in any way. He's the best QB in the game, ever. That's just a fact. Brady is better as a leader but not as QB. Rodgers had a top 10 defense like twice. The Bucs down the stretch last year were number one in the league and stacked.

And he's put up with a lot of bs


Not saying he doesn't have his flaws but no franchuse QB has been treated this way. Montana and Favre were very different situations. I can't even think of one franchise QB that had this pulled on him. Not one.

Moreover, the front office could still fix this if they wanted.

Rodgers wants more money and wants to be extended beyond 41 years old at top dollar. He’s being greedy. The Packers drafting Love is part of football. Every other teammate gets guys drafted at their position. No one ever calls them to tell them about it. If he’s so miffed that he either gets lots of money or quits, there’s not much you can do. Even if they had called the guy first, he’d still be squabbling over money right now.
