Well his selection lit a fire under Rodgers and he played at an MVP level ever since...no reason to move Love, hes a cheap backup at 3.3 mil this yr.

He's a fucking bargain at that price. Unless the colts sell the farm keep him.C.H.U.D.Comment

I would hold on to Love unless we could get a first round pick in return for him, which is unlikely. He is a cheap option at backup QB, which is needed to help build the rest of the roster at this point. He's likely to continue to improve moving forward as he gains more experience. Love is still younger than some of the college guys coming out this year. As a backup for the next two years, you won't find a cheaper option that will be better.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment

Def keep him 2 years, and next year or the year after we target qb in the draft. We now hope to have 12 for 4 more years. Still have to plan for future.All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

Yes, the Packers need a reasonable backup QB and Love fits the bill. The real reason Gute/MLF won’t trade Love is to protect themselves. If Love shows any promise playing for another team, it only adds pressure to their employment status as they continue to come up short with AR at QB.Comment

We don't need a cheap Love as backup we have Benkert who would save us more.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.Comment

I wonder if the team thinks Benkert is just as good a backup as Love is and whether they think Love still has upside.
They can keep him as the backup if they think he can develop into something good, but if they think he's ever only going to be backup QB material, and if they think Benkert can do that just as well, then, well, you're right.
I'd be amazed if they could get even a late second rounder for him. A third would even be a pleasant surprise."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

My gut feeling is if Rodgers deal is structured such that he is here for several more years (eg retiring screws the Packers in cap space or it would be prohibitively hard to move on), then you have to deal Love. If it's really a one year deal with extra years to make money work, then you probably keep Love.*
* You only keep love if you think he has a future with a floor of above average starter, ceiling of super bowl winning starter. If you don't, you trade him and get the most value you can for him in a shitty QB draft.Comment

Very reasonable. I agree.Originally posted by call_me_ishmael View Post"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

In the game against kc, his first as a starter, he had a pick tipped and one where two feet difference it's a td.Originally posted by Tony Oday View Post
I'm giving him more time. I think 3 mil for a backup is cheap. Benkert wasnt picked up of the ps when unprotected.All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.
