Ridiculous Jets GB Trade in Athletic Mock Today

Here is the trade for Rogers in a Beat Writers mock draft in the Athletic today. If this trade happens, JD should pack his bags tomorrow.  Two firsts and Moore for an old beaten down disinterested QB on the verge of retirement?  Nope.  I don't want to give up 1 first, let alone 2 plus a starting WR.  Give them 1 second or third round pick. That's all he is worth at 39 years old with that bloated contract and the possibility that he plays 2 years tops.

 

Packers-Jets trade details: Packers receive No. 13 pick, a 2024 second-round pick that becomes a first if Aaron Rodgers plays in 2024 and wide receiver Elijah Moore; Jets receive Rodgers.

 

Absolutely NO to that trade.  It's absurd.  Give me Carr instead.

Aside from the absurdity of it, it makes no sense. How can the 2024 conditional be based on whether he plays in 2024 when the draft is before the season?

Yea I'm with you but I'd imagine it would work similar to this year. Rodgers needs to decide before FA or the Draft if he's going to play. You build in contingencies should he retire after the draft - maybe its the Jets gets Packers '25 first in the event Rodgers does retire before the season but after draft

Oddly enough, I find myself irrationally upset Moore is included in this trade lol

I'd be willing to do:

Rodgers

For

E Moore 

2024 3rd round pick that can go up to a 2nd or 1st based on team success. Goes to a 2nd for making the playoffs, goes to a 1st for winning the AFC Championship. 

I'd def give up Moore instead of having to give up a 1st or 2nd this year.

That's a beat writer who doesn't realize Rodgers has no duty to commit to an entire year of play before April and GB can't force that into his contract as part of the trade. 

A conditional deal is the only one that makes sense for Rodgers. If he only plays 2023 he's worth half, or less, than playing through his contract. I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Rodgers goes to another team for a big payoff this year, a lower pick in 2024 and a conditional 2025 pick if he plays through 2024. If there's a lot of interest in Rodgers I could see GB pursuing the #13 pick, Moore and a second round pick in 2025 if Rodgers plays 2024. IMO that is too much for a two year player coming off a hand injury and a not great year.

Fine if we also sign WR Lazard as our WR2.

It seems like most people are in denial of what it would take to acquire Rodgers in a trade.

The only report I have seen said the Packers would seek "multiple firsts" for Rodgers. There is nothing out there suggesting this isn't still the asking price.

End of the day, nobody is trading that amount for an aging quarterback, coming off an injury, and contemplating retirement after ever season. He's staying with the Packers.

Asking price = / = final price.  My guess is it ends up being something like a 1st & 3rd.

One thing JD has been great at is making trades and not making trades. I have confidence he will not have to give up nearly this much, but a conditional 2nd, turning into a 1st based upon playoffs, and Elijah Moore, isn’t terrible. Though I expect, at this point, Rodgers stays with the Packers, and we sign Derek Carr to 4 years 160 mil. With Opt outs. Just a hunch.

Still too much.  Why give up a #1 at all, let alone throw in a starter.  1-2 years of Rodgers is not worth a #1 pick.  

Calling Elijah Moore a starter is kind of hilarious.   And would much rather get rid of the cancer on the team, who could give a sh*t if we win or not.

How many other teams do we think are bidding for Aaron Rodgers?  

If another, who is bidding 1 or more first round draft picks? 

But do we think the Packers could say its xxx draft picks or we will keep him?  With those guys, I could see that.

Keeping him also means having to deal with him and the Love situation.  Not to mention the big paycheck and the fact that Aaron will be upset of he wants a trade and is not granted one.
