Rodgers to meet with the Jets

[eaglesnut]

My point is, if the front office for Green Bay had been proactive, they would have gotten way more than 2 seconds for him. Trading him coming off of an MVP in 21' than the mediocre season he had in 22' would have been better for the bottom line of both teams given the cliff that Russ fell off of.

In fact, they had been setting up moving on from him and didn't until it was too late and he forced his way out. This was a day that was coming down the line the second they drafted Love. Extending him was a mistake that they shouldn't have made.

This is a really good summary of the Packers completely botching their situation with a hall of fame quarterback.

 

[eaglesnut]

Heck, I think the Packers did well for a 39-year-old QB who seems half-hearted about continuing his career. Yes, Seahawks fans are likely happier about the return they got for Wilson, but it's not apples to apples kind of comparison.

He was half-hearted about continuing it in green bay. And the Packers organization is the reason for that.

 

[eaglesnut]

The Packers traded their 15th pick in the 1st round to NY and got the Jets 13th pick in the draft on Thursday. And a 2nd in this draft.

And it is a 1st rounder in '24 draft if Rodgers plays 65% of the snaps. 2nd rounder if he doesn't.

Yes I know. A future 20-something pick and a pick in the 40s now. Like I said.

They just started over again twice at the QB position in the last 5 years anyway. A future 20th pick and a current year 40th pick is almost nothing compared to the 2nd or 3rd pick. They're not losing anything that helps them get a QB in 2025 or 26. And they just jumped to the top at the position for the next two years.

Top of his position? He wasn’t that guy last year.

The oddsmakers appear to take it at least halfway seriously. Their Super Bowl odds opened at +2800 and have now moved to +1400. There's only 5 teams getting a better chance to win.

Bill Belichick is so screwed.

Belichick right now

An anomaly. He won the two previous MVPs and has dominated since 2008.

Is it? He’s older now and he’s half in half out on NFL football.

While failing to point out they get the 13th pick in this upcoming draft.

Here to help.

LOL.

And he could bounce back in NY since Hackett is there....last season Hackett was in Denver.

For a second I thought you were referring to Christian Hackenberg and I was like, NO WAY.

I'd just like to point out that Father Time is an undefeated opponent and nobody is immune. Now you could very well be right, he could bounce back. But this is still an enormous risk for the Jets and they pretty much have to win a ring in a next year or 2 to justify it. That's a pretty big bar to hurdle with so many good/great teams in the AFC.

Father time has been taking some Ls lately. Rodgers is only 39, which "used" to be considered old. That Jets roster is pretty well constructed, with the main need at QB.

Yep.

They are right there with KC, Buff, and Cinci in the AFC.

If he even repeated the down year he had with GB last season? The Jets would be a LOT better than they were with Zach and the other QB's they had last season.

 

[shopson67]

Yep.

I wouldn't go there just yet, still needs to be a lot of meshing to get things to work. Certainly in the realm of possibilities.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Yep.

No they aren’t

rodgers is also not brady... Brady KNOWS how to win, even if he is not the most talented... Rodgers is more talented than brady, but he is not going to bring in that same winning mentality

 

[Battlelyon]

It's been 13 years since Rodgers won a Super Bowl, the only one he played in.
