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

[call_me_ishmael]

yeah he did a lot of work. too bad all his numbers and math are incorrect

You might be right that they would have a little bit more bonus money to defer for Rodgers. I don't think that fundamentally changes the equation _that_ much.

[call_me_ishmael]

The big thing is _if_ they do it, they are basically committing to keeping the current players together for a number of years. You are committing to a hefty cap for years to come.

I just don't see how you can keep this team together next year, period. Unless Gute drafts out of his mind and finds two more gems like Campbell and Douglas - and that is rare - the team won't be as talented as this year's team, in my opinion. And this year's team couldn't get past San Fran.

I don't know. We've been spoiled watching Rodgers in the regular season, but he's pooped the bed a couple of times in the playoffs now. So how do you get to the SB? I really don't know.

We’re right at the end of Rodgers playing prime ball. Get three more years and then rebuild.

you said his cap number for this year would be 14.5 or 22 million

his prorated potion for this year is already 19.1. THAT NUMBER CAN NOT GOT DOWN!!!!!!!

you want to give him another 108 million dollar signing bonus. spread over 5 years, thats another 21.6 for pro rated signing bonus per year

YOU ADD THAT NUMBER to the pro rated signing bonus he already has, it doesn't replace it. it can't replace it cause the cap doesn't work that way

so under you idea his new cap number for 2022 is 40.7 million from pro rated signing bonus + whatever his salary is

so you haven't fix anything

his cap number next year would have a 29 million dollar pro rated signing bonus + salary

after that you would still have around 65 million in dead cap money

your numbers for bak and preston seem right. but with your numbers for rodgers being so far off, it makes the restructure of preston kinda complicated. saving 3.5 million in cap this year on preston means we still have to cut a lot of guys. p smith is one of the few guys we can cut and get a big cap break from

[red]

we are 40 million over the cap

sounds like big z is gonna be cut. that frees up 15.3 million

cobb most likely is gone. that frees up 8.1 million

for me, lowry can go. he's the only real guy with a decent cap number that can go away. that saves 5.8

so theres 29.2 million in savings. so we still need to find about 10 million.

restructuring preston, gets us 3.5 more

might be able to eaiter cut or give amos a new deal. cutting him frees 4 million

and thats about all i can fine for freeing up money. guys like mase and some others can free up a million here or there, but nothing big

so now we're almost at break ever, with no one else to cut, and no free cap space to sign free agents

now if we trade rodgers plus z, cobb, lowry, amos and maybe a couple others. now we can start thinking about re signing some of our free agents

Sigh, we were doing so good too.

You have definitely gone off the rails on this one. he did not say anything politcal. Rodgers has said everyone is out too get him so it kept it pretty clean, something you and all your playmates are not able to do it seems.

Now you attacking him after making a really good post what’s up with that? Also you seem to be trying to control what the situation is here that’s not what you’re trying to do correct? Because that would be my thing to do wouldn’t you agree? As far as HH goes he gets to do what he wants because I say so. Is me doing whatever not OK with you?

well i'm shocked

[George Cumby]

So great. A-A-ron is going to speak to Gutey this week. Great. Wonderful.

You're under contract A-A-ron. Gutey makes the call.

What is best for the team, long-term, is to trade the Diva QB who consistently fails in the biggest games for maximum draft capital and maybe a player or two.

We have the pieces in place for a decent team even with a questionable Jordan Love. None of the NFC North teams are in that much better of a place.

Love may develop, we don't know yet.

But I'm done with this drama queen bullshit and these lame playoff performances. It's time for a fucking change.

Sure, we may head into dark times, but it's not like we've seen the Lombardi for ten fucking years.

[RashanGary]

They know more about Love than we do and I don’t think they like what they’ve got. They’re gonna take three more stabs with Aaron and then rebuild.

And Rodgers isn’t a diva.

[jklowan]

we need 63.3 million not 43
Need to clear by March 16th (no trades) ��-$53.4M: Space with draft & fill roster with rookies ��-$63.3M:

[jklowan]

again Rogers is gone, this current we made up is only PR so Rogers leaves on good terms with the fan base and the fans don't hang the Packers brass. Let the Love era start for better or worse.

[Sparkey]

They know more about Love than we do and I don’t think they like what they’ve got. They’re gonna take three more stabs with Aaron and then rebuild.

And Rodgers isn’t a diva.

In this, I agree.

[jklowan]

I'll go with Cleveland as his landing spot

[jklowan]

I'm hoping the return is future drafts as this one seems weak in the areas we need help with Rogers gone
