I agree with Florio here. If Rodgers wants out, he needs to do more to force the Packers hand. He needs to go public with what he wants.I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

Agree with bossman. Rodgers camp leaking makes way more sense. Packers wouldn't leak that on draft day, and if they knew this they certainly wouldn't be hanging up on calls from the Rams, 49ers or Broncos this off-season. They wouldn't have let Tim Boyle leave if they thought Rodgers wasn't going to be in camp.
The timing was calculated to one year of the Love pick, to make Gute & Co. squirm and have to face 4 Rodgers questions for every draft question, and to bring as much attention to the issue on a day when lots of casual and hardcore fans are paying attention.
That Rodgers -- who was all over social media during his Jeopardy stint -- has gone completely silent on this while the Packers are saying they want him should tell you plenty.
For the record, the Packers will NOT fire Gute for Rodgers. That's a precedent Goodell would step in to prevent if he could. This is almost the same garbage Favre pulled -- wanting to 'stick it to Ted', etc.

There’s no lessening value. If the packers are open to trading him June 1 then they’re going to get a big return. It hurts the packets zero. It does make teams rethink if they’re going QB or not. I’m looking at you Denver. Its a pretty good time for the team to leak it because there was zero chance of them taking him that day. They’re not taking that cap hit.Originally posted by Upnorth View PostPerhaps rodgers did not leak it, even though he gains leverage by getting teams looking at trading for him on a day where more trades happen than the rest of the year. There is no way the head office leaks it on a day where the value they recieve will be lower than what they could get Any Other day of the off season.
Perhaps people in the know calculated this for draft day to maximize publishing value. If you follow the dollars this makes sense.
And is the only thing that makes meets any level of logic besides a rodgers leak.

I don't think you can say they won't fire gute. But it would be colossally stupid if they did.
Could you imagine the league if that happened?All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

This story has been refuted by people close to Aaron. Even if it were true they’re not going to fire anyone although letting this situation get to this level should have him & Murphy’s ass both removed.Originally posted by Upnorth View PostI don't think you can say they won't fire gute.

They’re in the know more than you or me. They also break & write stories & know what it looks like when it’s coming from a team or a players camp champ. You don’t have that level of insight.Originally posted by King Friday View PostAh yes... Nameless NFL insider... Clearly a beacon of light and knowledge.

So your proof that the org leaked it is creating a hypothetical situation in which Rodgers made this decision 2 months ago but didn't act on it? And the org leaked it on draft day for what reason? It would have benefitted the org to leak it at that time, while they still could flip him to QB-needy teams and before they gave out contracts pushing cap hits into future years. Even your hypothetical makes no sense.Originally posted by Packers4Glory View PostLeaking out the day of the draft makes less sense for Rodgers. If he were going to leak it, or try to help force a trade it would have been done at the start if FA. That’s his most leverage. Also well before the draft where teams can work something out before drafting a guy (SF). There wasn’t leverage for him on draft day. It was about the team getting a narrative out of this us what he wanted & we tried doing. Read adam S story that broke this news. That’s not coming from Rodgers IMOGo PACK

makes more sense than Rodgers putting it out there. Wtf is soo hard to understand that this gives the team 1 month to do some damage control?Originally posted by Bossman641 View PostSo your proof that the org leaked it is creating a hypothetical situation in which Rodgers made this decision 2 months ago but didn't act on it?

Oh we met with him several times.
He didn’t want to restructure. He wanted a n extension.
We offered him an extension. He turned it down.
Blah blah blah. Then the reports about wanting the GM fired. Then the touchdown Jesus stuff. Is all team bs
They saw the writing on the wall. They’re prepping us for the eventual hold out or trade looking for public support.
