Popular Post RedBeardedSavage Posted January 17 Popular Post Share Posted January 17 Listened to it, don't love the "I want my guys" part, but I don't think we're a rebuild team. The D is good and we have offensive weapons. With Rodgers? We need an offensive tackle and I'd run it back with the same squad. He's kind-of a prick but this is the best option I see moving forward, better than Lamar or Carr for us right now. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what they'd need in return to stomach that. Not really excited about giving up a bunch of draft capital for a 39 year old guy who has actively been talking about retirement for a while but if it's not an unreasonable ask, sure - of course. I wouldn't count on him sticking around or more than one season though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't count on him sticking around or more than one season though. Everything depends on price, but I imagine it has to be less costly than acquiring 26 y/o Lamar Jackson. If the Packers are out on Rodgers, I'd say one first round pick - hopefully a 2024 one so we could keep this years for an offensive tackle - would make it work. It's a one-or-two year rental, so they can't expect a kings' ransom. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Teams that are not in some form of rebuild already have QBs for the most part. We are going to have to listen to this guys attention seeking shtick all off season and then he will meekly go back to the packers as if that was his first choice all along. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Mart Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Looking Ahead to the Packers Options with Aaron Rodgers Posted on October 24, 2022 by Jason Fitzgerald With the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers stumbling through the 2022 season I have started to get a number of questions pertaining to Rodgers and his contract. Rodgers signed a massive three year contract worth $150.8 million with virtually the entire contract guaranteed for injury and over $100 million fully guaranteed. Due to the size of the contract it is a complex deal and questions are being asked about his future and the Packers options with the salary cap, so I will try to explain the contract as best as possible given the information I have on the deal. Rodgers currently has a salary cap charge of $31.6 million in 2023. $59.465 million of his $59.515 million salary for the year is already guaranteed. The Packers have the option to pay that salary out as a $58.3 million option bonus and a $1.165 million salary in order to drive his cap charge to the $31.6 million figure. The timing of the option works in the Packers favor for both trades and/or potential retirement as the official option decision does not have to happen until the start of the 2023 regular season. What Happens in Aaron Rodgers Retires? If Rodgers were to walk away he would forfeit all his rights to the $59.465 million in guaranteed salary for next year. In order to best accommodate the hit on the salary cap my assumption would be that the Packers and Rodgers would sign a new contract where the option bonus was eliminated and just a $1.165 salary remained. That would reduce Rodgers salary cap charge to $16,998,750 and they would carry him on the roster as a procedural move until June 2nd. At that point they would put him on the retired list. The salary cap charge in that case would be $15,833,570 in 2023 and $24,480,000 in 2024. If they did not do that and processed the retirement right away they would take a salary cap hit of $40,313,570 in 2023 but none in 2024. The Packers have no cap space next year so it would seem more likely that they take the first approach. What Happens if the Packers Trade Aaron Rodgers? Rodgers does not have a no trade clause in his contract so he could be traded to a team as well. The timing of the option should give the Packers all the way until the end of training camp to move him. The cap charge here would depend on when he was traded. If Rodgers were to be traded prior to June 1st the Packers would take on a $40,313,750 cap hit in 2023. If he was traded after June 1st it would be a $15,833,570 cap hit in 2023 with $24,480,000 due in 2024. This assumes that the Packers did not exercise the option before the trade. If the option is exercised then the trade number spikes to nearly $100 million. There should be no need to exercise the option until the last possible day. For the team acquiring Rodgers they would be on the hook for the salary for the year. The cap charge would be $59,515,000 if they do not exercise his option and $15.79 million if they were to exercise the option. Rodgers has an injury guarantee of $49.25 million for 2024 but that does not become fully guaranteed until 5 days after the 2023 Super Bowl. If Rodgers was cut after 2023 it would cost the team $43.725 million on the 2024 cap. If he retired they could split that as $14.575 million in 2024 and $29.15 million in 2025 using a similar June 2nd date as mentioned above in the retirement option. Can Aaron Rodgers be Cut? No that is not a feasible option. Because his salary next year is fully guaranteed the Packers would take on over $99 million in dead money. While they could officially pick up the option and split that across 2023 and 2024 it would be about $31 million in dead money in 2023 and then $68.2 million coming in 2024. https://overthecap.com/looking-ahead-to-the-packers-options-with-aaron-rodgers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadFan Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Aaron Rodgers is missing two key characteristics to win himself a second Championship. 1) Not beloved by his teammates because of his condescending arrogance and he is a finger-pointer. Which btw is always anybody but himself… 2) He is a front-runner. Rarely seems to play well when the team is behind. He would be a huge upgrade, but I would not expect anything beyond a playoff spot. Rodgers does not get the Marino roster excuse. He has had teams good enough to win a SB and failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
