I see this as a declining market on Rodgers.And you know they have not been fielding offers how? This is not fantasy football and I honestly think many fans think trades happen in a few days or weeks. Breaking News: no it does not. What happens in the GB front office and others in the league privately is not what we see publicly. And guess what? The trade market is not robust for multiple reasons and 90% of those reasons the GB front office has zero control of.
Aaron Rodgers will get traded. Might not be this season but it will happen. What the market is now will not be the market we see in February and March next year. Yes there is risk / reward involved but it’s a business.
I don't think if he comes back at the end of camp or mid season he will help the Pack. The Pack has a new center and a new receiver - who I think will be at least Cobb in his prime good if not better - who won't have an opportunity to learn Rodgers pre-snap changes, modifications, quirks, and improvisations.
Also, because it will be difficult for Rodgers and a new team to learn how to play together - see above, teams aren't going to trade for Rodgers this year if they only get him for part of camp.
I'm not naive, I know it's not fantasy football. I know there are cap issues, but year in and year out, we see teams in cap hell somehow get through tough situations while the Pack Front Office plays super conservative and works its cap for years in the future.
I also think a bird in the hand is better than 2 in the bush - especially when you know the 2 are flying away.
I doubt Rodgers does the Pack any good this year. I doubt his value is ever higher. He should be traded now.
I doubt that the Packers Front Office is doing anything but engaging in this dumb ass power play of we're right and he's wrong. I doubt we score anything close to what the Lions got for Stafford.
That's what I believe. I'll gladly mea culpa if proven wrong.
