I was hoping they would draft Tanner McKee. He had a poor combine, so he may fall to third round. But, they wont be drafting a QB, I don't think. The way I see it, they view ZW as their "developmental" QB behind Rodgers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A deal should come together as both teams have far too much to lose for it not to happen. Agreed. Not sure why they didn’t have the trade in place before the jets were allowed to talk to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the compelling fact. No, it isn’t. The “compelling fact” is they have Rodgers until we make an offer they’re happy with… and we don’t. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t think the Packers are as concerned as we like to think they are. If they want to move him, they will eventually. Rodgers isn’t retiring, and they don’t have to give Love the 20 mil this year, do they? They kind of do have to give love the option in May. They put three years into him and they are adamant he’s ready. Love is their only option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You already have a #2 overall on the roster, and you’re gonna take a fifth rounder to “compete?” No, they’re not gonna do that, nor should they. If they’re that concerned about the backup job, they’ll bring in a journeyman to hold the fort there for a year or two and use their picks to build the team. Do you think they'll bring in someone who will challenge Zach Wilson and possibly make him the 3rd string quarterback? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can the Packers regime survive a ruined cap the next few years because they couldn't move this deal across the finish line.... It's simple. The gb regime just got long term extensions in June 2022. Jd is on his final 2 years. The gb regime reports to a mild mannered elected team president named Mark Murphy. The NYJ regime reports to a whimsical billionaire Strictly speaking the Gbp guys have safe jobs. Jd does not. This scenario where Gbp has to pay their living legend 10x pro bowl qb and maybe bench him does not get those guys fired.

ptisme Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 30 minutes ago, THE BARON said: What the GB office wants is irrelevant. Their "feelings" cant get around contract legalities. Let's see how they feel about holding out to fleece the Jets when Rodgers shows up in GB for OTA's. At the same time, the Jets can show ZW in practice throwing the ball all over the field to Lazard, Wilson, Moore, Davis. And we know that Rodgers is one of the few that can get by without having a camp. He knows more offense than most OCs do and he'll be back in a system that he knows. GB has NOTHING but a headache as leverage. If I was JD, I would continue from this point on as if the Rodgers deal was dead and ZW was my QB Remember, Rodgers wants to play for the Jets. He can flat out refuse to play for any other team by retiring and leaving GB with no extra drat picks and a $40mm bill. Hey, Joe D. Let GB come begging for the Jets to give them a 7th round pick before week one happens. GB has NOTHING. You guys are right about the Packers needing to move off that contract. It’s the complete naivety sone of you have about the Jets needing to get this deal done that is just weird. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 28 minutes ago, OtherwiseHappyinLife said: Who said high round draft pick? This year, I'd take a QB in the 5th round. Round 1: Center or OT Round 3: OT or Center (assumes we give up 2nd round pick) Round 4: Linebacker (Mosley's 2024 replacement; assumption is Jets sign a stop gap vet like Calais Campbell at DT) Round 5: Developmental QB Round 6: DT depth (replace Shepherd) Undrafted: Kick returner / slot (replace Berrios) Safety: Jets keep Whitehead and run with a rotation of Whitehead/Clark/Adams In 2024, you base a QB selection on Zach & 2023 fifth rounder's development. But a balanced approach is to keep drafting until you feel comfortable you are developing at least a good (average QB) so they can transition post Rodgers at a time his dead cap hit will prevent from getting a good veteran QB. They'll instead need dollars to resign/extend the young bucks on their roster. I think more likely trade down in the 5th or 6th so they can add an extra pick for a QB without decreasing the # of non-QB draft picks. Particularly by round 6 I'm not sure how scientific it is to match players & projected or presumed draft slots anyway. We'll see what happens, but imo there's no way they're drafting a center at #13.

Having Rodgers does not solve the Jets QB problem. It gives them a partial solution. It gives them a QB to work with for two years while they develop the guy that will come in and take over in 2025. I dont see that being ZW as much as JD refuses to face facts. They should draft a QB this year and if he looks untrainable, draft another one next year as well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither team really has leverage since they both are screwed without each other. What they have is time. Hopefully they are talking and Jets have an idea how much GB wants 23 picks instead of 24. If they prefer 23 picks, then the deal gets done between now and the draft. If they are willing to take 24 picks in order to spread the cap with a post June 1 trade, then we wait until June. I think it gets done before the draft. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your final two sentences merely, once again, demonstrate just how disinterested you are in the workings of the salary cap.
