What do the Packers get for Aaron Rodgers?

[Rastak]

We agree again, sort of. If in fact the trade goes through, as even I am expecting by maybe about 80-90%, then Rodgers definitely will be on my shit list, as he made that horrible statement on McAfee that made ya'all fools so happy and probably doomed Packer football for the foreseeable future. I have said, and I repeat, if he's playing for the Jets or anybody else, he becomes the enemy, and I hope he breaks his knees or gets otherwise career-ending injured.

No denying what he said, but I'm not completely sure he meant it - the reason I say "sort of". And I'm completely sure he won't retire and walk away from the $59 million - in which case he would be return to the Packers and be heartily welcomed by anybody who isn't stupider than even the worst of the shithead crowd.

Your GM in his very own words.

Sounds like Rodgers made it clear he wasn't committed to the Packers "in so many words?"

"Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst acknowledged in a conversation with reporters today that the Packers won’t necessarily get a first-round pick from the Jets in the Rodgers trade, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network."

gutey, the master of negotiations

who the hell comes out and says that in the middle of negotiations?

Well, the Jets also came out and said "We won't talk to Lamar Jackson as we'd be negotiating in bad faith." WTF are these guys doing!

Some think that the 2 sides have agreed on compensation, the issue now being money.

Gotta be careful with that, there might be a conditional pick so the Packers will do better if he doesn't suck.

If he's just showing up for the 59 million and doesn't want to be there, it's probably gonna be last year all over again, or worse....

Gutey said that he tried contacting Rodgers several times this offseason and he wouldn’t pick up the phone or call back. So gutey had to move on and do his job. Per Matt Schneidman.

GOOD JOB GUTE AND WAY TO GROW SOME BALLS and deliver a GUTEBOOM

This has to drive that Tuesday Media Whore Karen Crazy as he's not controlling the narrative.

Sounds like Guter has acknowledged the Packers might not get a first round pick after all. So probably they have the outline of a deal in place and now must negotiate who's picking up how much tab. And there may be some compensation tied up in that - if we take on X number of dollars of the contract we get a first rounder, if we pick up X - minus Y we get a second, and so on, and probably they're negotiating the parameters. Sounds like Gute doesn't want to pick up as big a chunk of the tab as it would cost for that elusive first.

Hi everyone, I'm new to Packer Rats. I'm wondering if anyone else feels like the team is giving in by not getting that pick 13. Maybe it was wishful thinking, but I was really liking the idea of having both 13 and 15. It is possible we get a 1 next year but only if they do well enough if what I have read is correct and that would mean a much later pick in the round. With the Jets not having a whole lot of other QB options and continuing to invest so much in this season, I figured they would cave and give it up.

I kind of agree

I would make those shitbags sweat. And if they don't part with 13 hold out for a 2nd this year and a 1st next year.

If Karen does NOT play the second year take their 1st and give them back our 3rd cause Gutebag always drafts shit in round 3 anyways

It's kind of a funny situation, Packers want him gone and Jets want him but he's 40 and stated in public he was 90% ready to retire so no team in the NFL is coughing up the 13th pick. Jet's QB situation is dire but GB doesn't want to eat that contract either. Green Bay can't feasibly cut him.

THAT is the situation in a nutshell.
