Aaron Rodgers to the Jets rumor: Merged

I think that no one including Wingo really know what is going on and both sides are releasing little "rumors" to help their teams perception, but I do think it is somewhat interesting that the rumors suggest that it is not a done deal. I still think it does get done but both teams are entrenched enough that there is a possibility it does not happen. SF is NOT the team but if GB does get super squeezed on the comp package I could see them taking the lesser package from a different team rather than letting it be know the Jets negotiated better.

If the Jets do not come away with Rodgers they have not negotiated better, they will be seen as an epic failure.

Due to the jets botching of the whole thing there are three outcomes.

-  Get Rodgers at a good price = win

- Get Rodgers at a less than good price = loss

- Do not get Rodgers = epic loss.

They would need Rodgers to agree to go to another team first in order to get that team to offer any reasonable package for his services. If Rodgers-to-the-Jets was as in-peril as the click-bait community wanted you to believe, the Jets would be working out Will Levis as we speak and Tennessee would be leaking rumors about the hot Ryan Tannehill trade market.

You Packers fans act like the Packers front office isn't burning bridges with him right now and that he'll eventually do what's right for the organization when push comes to shove.  I think you're all miscalculating the amount of petty he's going to put out if he's not traded soon.  You all think he's going to do the front office a favor by either retiring or agreeing to another trade if the Jets one doesn't get done and I don't see it that way.  Rodgers knows that guys have signed with the Jets expecting him to be there and if he has to his agent will force the Packers hands. If and when (it's only a matter of time) Rodgers agent leaks a story to someone that Rodgers will either get traded to the Jets or he plans on being on the Packers in 2023 and that he's not retiring and he's not willing to go to any other team is the minute the Packers will have to bend over and take it up the ass from JD.  Which I'm sure will include less draft compensation then you or they want and will include the Packers paying more of his bonus then they want.  Like you said, they can't afford to keep him on the roster even though your GM is still leaving the option open publicly.  The longer this drags on the worse it is for the Packers.  The leverage has never been with the Jets or the Packers, it's always been with Rodgers.  He can move this along pretty quickly if need be but I'm sure JD has told his agent to stay out of it, for now.

I suggest then Rodgers put some pressure on the Jets.

I don't think there is any way he accepts a trade to another team after some of his friends signed to the Jets for the explicit reason that Rodgers said he would be on the Jets.  He will make life very difficult for the Packers if they try to pivot to another team or let this drag out.  That would not be good for the Packers compensation demands

We'll see...  Or perhaps we won't...

Obviously, I’ll take 1 year of at least legit playoff hopes over the refuse we’ve been served up the last 12 years though.

But this all-in for 1 year bet would be much more sound if the Jets had a proven championship caliber HC.

Saleh has cost the Jets more games than he’s won them.

[AceRothstein]

Perhaps a reason for the delay is that the teams have a deal in place for a first round swap.

If that’s the case there is legit reasoning for delaying until the draft

There is a legitimate disagreement over the total value for compensation. Both sides feel they have the leverage. Both sides can wait. The packers will be confronted with a decision on what is more important, draft capital this year or cap relief next year,  on draft day. 
 

they could announce the terms of an agreement and submit it to the league at anytime now. 
 

This is an old fashioned

Yeah they’re both completely obliterated.  On that note…I gotta be honest. 

Obviously, I love the implication.

That being said…I don’t, particularly, love our GM getting absolutely hammered and getting on stage with a, equally, hammered Boomer Esiason and acting this way.

GMs like Idiotic kickers should not talk when all liquored up.

The league isn’t going to penalize the Jets for JD doing an interview with Boomer Esiason at a charity function.

He also sent in an envelope with Zach Wilson on it.

not impressed 

[greasyt]

We are so fortunate as an organization to have Joe Douglas ......when it's all said and done he may go down as a HOF GM.....

[NIGHT STALKER]

I didn't realize that JD was that tall because Boomer is like 6'5.

Those sh*t is just getting so weird

I just need this to be over. I actually don't care how it ends anymore.

JD was a starting LT in college.

 

This declaration is a little weird, out of character for him.
