AR wants out?!

[texaspackerbacker]

Drafting actually is that simple. Most of us have done mock drafts, and in my case and probably most of ya'all's, most of the results have been at least as good as the real thing. And of course, whoever the person is, they have a whole staff of scouts and tech people to gather info. Anybody with a grasp of math can do the capology, probably better because mindset is a factor there - and Ted and all his disciples were flawed in that way IMO.

Jerry Jones is the closest thing to a comparable - not a complete amateur, he did play some small time college football long ago, but certainly not an "expert" by NFL standards ....... and arguably he has outperformed most or all of those experts over time drafting.

Sharpe, maybe you and a few others lack the self-confidence to think you could handle something like that, but the hardest part for most people would be having the thick skin to put up with whiners and detractors.

And ODAY, yeah, you got that right. "Keep AR" is the ultimate priority - otherwise the expression "fucking up a wet dream" comes to mind.

Tex, you are delusional.

Or maybe he's just a complicated fella.

Keep AR on the roster, dont trade, either play for the Pack or sit.

You realize that if 12 “sits,” 10 ain’t sitting, right?

You were jolly when the Packers cut Akili Smith. Ditto, Henry Burris, Vince Young, DeShone Kizer. You jumped off the Packers bandwagon the day Seneca Wallace made his historical start for the Packers. Only reason you weren’t mad during Brett “the Hun” Hundley’s glory days: you’d rather Hundley, who looks like Attila the Hun, start at QB than Kap.

Go root for the NHL, fishmonger. Shaking my fucking head.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

I have concerns even if AROD shows he comes in with less than the attitude we'd want to lead us to a Super Bowl. Gute made some f'ck ups.....but I'm at peace if they'd get a ton of value for Rodgers with a trade and move on.

12 has too much respect for this brothers in arms to half-ass it.

I tend to agree, but there's still a difference between being professional and being really driven.

Oh for Christ's sake. We're now equating being able to do a mock draft to an NFL GMs job? I'm sorry I brought this topic up.

I can throw for 6,500 yards and 60 TDs a season on Madden, so we don't really need Rodgers.

But how many INTs and does your O-line suck like the Packers?

[Joemailman]

Get yours before they run out.

Thinking about this more, Marcia is a f'ckin idiot and GB should muzzle him. Quoting a diseased Packer GM and saying something that dam stupid is just mind boggling.

He’s saying Rodgers is hard to deal with and a lot of people are. He has every right to defend his position against Rodgers, who’s throwing them under the bus. Rodgers is under contract for three more years. He’ll be 40 when it expires. They’re trying to win championships in a salary cap league. If 12 can come out and say they’re bad with people, Murphy can say 12 is complicated.

I support Rodgers operating as a business but I support the Packers trying to do the same. It’s broken systems. It’s going to have issues. Both sides can defend themselves.

AND

Any fan with a brain cell already knows this.

And dipshit coming out and saying this adds credibility to Rodgers implying there are culture issues. He might as well have just said Rodgers is a drama queen/pain in the ass....etc etc......any fan with a brain cell makes that logic step too


This would have been more intelligent to say. Aaron is a very smart guy and there are always tough decisions to make every year and some me may not be popular. But as we saw last year Rodgers is a tremendous football player and we're going to do everything we can to work through the challenges we have and keep him in Green Bay

[Bretsky]

Can I be Captain Obvious here. You don't think we dicked over Jordy Nelson ? Whether we offered him the Vet Minimum, or 2.5 Million to return ...was shitty either way. He loved it here, was a leader, and wanted to stay and was willing to cut his wage by plenty to stay a Packers. But those offers...................

I'm sure there are other examples of the cut throat business......some valid...some not......but I think AROD has been playing nice for the most part

And I think Murphy should just shut his pothole in regards to all of this and let it play out

[RashanGary]

Bretsky,

It’s a fan based business. Rodgers said they have a culture problem being bad with people. They’re going to come out and let the public know Rodgers is difficult to deal with. If 12 can cast stones, so can the organization. Both parties have every right to protect themselves and the fan base becomes the battle field in these things. Rodgers shouldn’t have made this an issue if he didn’t want the Packers to defend themselves to the fan base. Of course that’s going to happen. And if it goes long, if Rodgers escalated it, they’ll do even more, and should. Rodgers cast bigger stones so he’s gonna have to suck it up. And if he can’t, there’s nothing anyone can do for him anyway. He’s just perpetually miserable and there’s no fixing that.
