Popular Post JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted January 23 Popular Post Share Posted January 23 60M payout in ‘23 for a 40-year old QB is absurd The only guys I would even consider at that cost is Mahomes or Burrow, and that’s obviously not happening Let another team be a sucker and bail out the Packers Rodgers at this point is a guy who won’t do OTAs and you’d be lucky if he shows up to camp on time He has zero chemistry with any WRs on the Jets and his game is entirely based on timing and anticipation and him being able to rely on his WRs to run exactly what he’s expecting in his mind, whatever that is Knowing the Jets luck, they’d swoop in and give up 3 firsts or something stupid like that and Rodgers would either retire during training camp or after going 1 and done in the playoffs 4 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d still be on the hook for 50M per for a mercurial guy who’s one bad haircut away from retirement (or threatening retirement or holdout or demanding Randall Cobb be signed or whatever) and at his age, the cliff could come at any time The decline has arguably already started Just in football terms, if you’re asking whether I’d want Rodgers or Zach Wilson as the ‘23 QB, obviously that’s a no brainer But it’s not that simple 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's like $15m 2023 and like $45m in 2024 but that would be dead cap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been to the Super Bowl exactly once. He doesn’t play well when his team has to come from behind, and as soon as a couple of things go wrong he pouts and points a finger at everyone but himself. He would join a strong division in the AFCE and have to go through Burrow, Mahomes and Allen. I would not have “SB expectations” with him because it is a guarantee he would have to win a couple of games when things aren’t always going according to plan. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers' personality doesn't even bother me. It's just hard to imagine it working out. If you do that, you have to win it all in '23 or '24 (under the constraints of severe cap limitations because of his contract) before Rodger's arm falls off.

peekskill68 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Woody doesn't have the cajones to go all in on Rodgers for a 2-year push to a title (like Tampa did with Brady/Rams did with Stafford, etc). I'm curious to see what Jerry Jones does since he's 80 years old and he has to realize he's never going to get by the Eagles with McCarthy and Prescott... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 ok so, some fact-checking. Spotrac says Rodgers' cap hit would be 31.6 M in '23. That's fine. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/green-bay-packers/aaron-rodgers-3745/ But LOL if the Packers were to cut him in the offseason, his dead cap charge would be an absolute joke: 100M ($99,778,568) The real issues loom in '24 and '25 with the gargantuan cap hits (40.7M and 59.3M) and potential dead cap (24.48 M and 16.32 M) if he falls off a cliff at any point between now and then. Brady is the ultimate anomaly, and even he finally looks washed at 45. Rodgers turns 40 in December. The odds of him regaining / sustaining anything close to his MVP form in '23 and beyond are slim to none. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a recipe for disaster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All true, you still have Super Bowl expectations when you sign a future HOF'er in an offseason, kind of goes without saying, especially to a team w/ a top 5 D and seemingly some solid young skills players that is only "average QB play away".

Saul Goodman Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Trading a few 1st round picks and paying Rodgers $40 million/year would be a disaster. He’s far past his prime, and it’d be a stretch to think he could just join a new franchise and give us immediate top-tier production. Very much against acquiring him.
