Rodgers Wants Out

[GBP4EVER]

You guys have spent 300+ pages regurgitating the same views over and over. Unless you have been directly involved with the conversations between Aaron and the Packers, you have no real knowledge of what is going on. I'm waiting for some real facts to come out over the next month or 2.

Until Rodgers is no longer part of this team I don't think any real facts will every come out.

 

[GBP4EVER]

I’m 90% there with you but I am open to sports having its transcendent moments and players. Just that for me, Rodgers is not one of them.

You maybe get one of those players every 20 years or so? As much as I don't like him last real transcendent player modern era has to be LeBron James.

And I get that and that’s fair. Last night Giannis block was one of them.

They gotta win! Otherwise it’s for nothing.
But yeah, Favre and Reggie, and Bart Starr. Or for me, Mark Messier in NY, I know people would say the same about Jeter.

Yeah the win helped but I watched an epic moment. To me that works

 

[FlaPack]

Yeah it'a business and GB controls his rights to do with him what they want they can tell him jump in a lake if he wants to hold out

Or he can live a happy life in his happy place and that’s fine. If he walks, don’t care honestly won’t impact my life

Not to hijack the thread but Kobe and Shaq would take issue with that.

Well the interview with Mayne was enough for me. Add what Tirco said it paints a clear picture The guy does not want to be in GB. Rest to me is window dressing.

We really just need to make the trade and take what we can get. I truly believe we'll only get less later. For one thing, teams that want him now, need him now, to work into their team's schemes and strategies. Mid, late training camp or after the season, he's of less value to them because they can't get him going. Now is the time.

That's why it's called a "forum"

In many ways it’s already to late for teams to integrate him in any system. Now add in salary cap considerations it’s next to impossible to find a trade partner. The market right now is maybe Denver and Las Vegas and I’m not sold either is a viable option. Next year teams like Miami, Arizona, Washington, Carolina, Tampa could become viable options along with Denver and LV.

The organization and Rodgers are both in a rock and a hard place situation for different reasons. The organization has the most valuable asset they ever had and need to maximize the value and that timeline is ugly right now. Rodgers has financial and age considerations and in a way is betting on himself if he sits. If he plays he risks skills decline and injury and if that happens kiss a extension goodbye.
