What happens if Rodgers wants to stay but management wants to move on??

[bobblehead]

I didn't want to thread jack a different thread so here it is.

Rodgers current cap number kills us. I never honestly thought he wanted to move on. He was pissed and enjoyed making them squirm. But now, after last night, what happens if they decide they want to move on and grab some sweet draft capital for him. He doesn't want to go anywhere. We can't be competitive with him at the current salary for a year.

This could become a nightmare where we suck next year as the 2 sides dig in. You can't really trade Rodgers if he isn't on board with it.

[Bretsky]

you are right and I never thought of it this way. But I don' think Rodgers will want to stay here and suck. I think he'll need to be very confident we're keeping Adams and will continue to compete. If he stays he'll restructure.

But he can make it hard to deal him for sure

We can win a Super Bowl with lesser talent than this year (sad to say that) if our QB play is great.

He has two choices: He can retire or be traded. We should not play the same game we did last offseason. Hopefully, the relationship is better so we can approach it like adults. With Rodgers, you never know.

I am still fully convinced Matty wants him back

MLF said as much in his press conference, but what else was he supposed to say?

If you are MLF, do you want Rodgers back; he had a great regular season...........and...........our other option ....is he remotely close to ready ?.

What teams could a trade be made with? I suspect the list is short. Would the Steelers be on it? What should the Packers expect in return?

rodgers said he doesn't want to be part of a re-build, but i don't see how we can keep him without having to cut just about everyone else on the team

Fuck all the panicky fools and haters that want to get rid of Rodgers/go from a top team to a perennial loser.

I really think they can keep AROD, Adams and Jaire and maybe Tonyan on a 1 or 2 year deal.

Will have to cut Z and some others.

I agree they can keep those you mention.

[Spaulding]

Does he have a no trade clause? If it wouldn't be surprising to hear they are open to moving him for draft capital and salary cap relief. It's basically the only chance to resign Campbell and/or Douglas and that would also mean moving on from Adams as well. Near term he's a stud but the traditional falloff for WR's on the North side of 30 isn't pretty and nor is paying top dollar for a WR when the QB position would be completely unsettled. . Seems pretty clear we seem to have plateaued with Rodgers and change might be good for both him and the Packers. Obviously might be a step back this coming year until we find a future QB as it doesn't appear that Love is it, but it's not like we're winning titles or even making the Super Bowl with Rodgers and the current roster.

Well, that was mature, I guess the proper reply is fuck you too..

Denver seems like the most likely target. 9th pick of draft. 2 2nd round picks. Hackett or Getsy might get the HC job.

That is what the internet speculation is..
