CapeCoralJetFan Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Okay, the Packers would like to get a #1 Draft Choice for Rodgers (not going to happen) We got Farve for bassicsally a #3 choice. What if we gave them oor #1 (13th pick) & they gave us their #1 (15th pick) They get a #1 from us (they move up 2 spots in the draft & we still have a #1 pick. The difference is about a #3 or #4 pick What do you think? Is it do-able? 3 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thebuzzardman Posted March 16 Popular Post Share Posted March 16 1 minute ago, More Cowbell said: From what I heard, they are looking for Stafford type compensation. Cool. They can eat a d*ck then and enjoy the massive cap hit Rogers staying on the team or retiring, gives them. F*ck them. Rogers is a great QB, but he's 40 and he's about to impact their cap in a highly negative way for several years. Jets are as much helping the Packers out as the Packers are trading a great (aged) QB to the Jets. Unless the haggle is over how much money GB might pick up, or other GB players being added to the deal, the GB GM can eat a jumbo bag of d*cks. 13 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darnold Schwarzenegger Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Packers are a team that rarely spends on free agents. They build their team through the draft. I think they want to hold 2 first rd picks, not to move up 2 spots in round 1. So I doubt that gets it done. I’d send them a 2 this year and a 2 next year. that should be more than enough for a 39 year old qb. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Barry McCockinner Posted March 16 Popular Post Share Posted March 16 Dear GB: You can have a first round pick. Next year. If make the superbowl this year.

Lith Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I don't think there is any way the Packers accept a swap of picks. Especially to just move up two slots. I think maybe a 2 and a conditional pick next year -- say a 3 that becomes a 2 with playoffs or a 1 sith SB. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Columbia Jet Fan Posted March 16 Popular Post Share Posted March 16 I think the best way to look at this is by answering: If Rodgers was 100% going to retire after this upcoming season - what would his trade value be? If you think the answer is a 1 I think you're high. I think it should be like a 4. If Rodgers adjust the contract so you aren't nuking your cap I'd say it would be a three or a two at most. Now there is uncertainty and maybe he plays two years (I think its a pipe dream but I'm sure the Packers would argue he'd play three) - so you add another pick next season based on if Rodgers is retired at the time of the draft (or week before) and what happened in the 2023 season. If we win a superbowl they can have next years 1. If its divisional round of playoffs and Rodgers is still on the team - a 2. Whatever tiered structure you want to create to get you where the Packers get paid if this works out really well for the Jets and the Jets are protected if this is a flop. That seems fair to me. There is no chance in hell I'm giving up pick 13 for a guy that just said he was 90% sure he was retiring and will almost assuredly nuke our cap for at least one year in the future.

Chewy and the Jets Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 The Stafford deal is LOL material. In that deal the Rams got both the player they wanted (much younger than AR btw) and got the Lions to take a massive contract off their books. They basically sold their picks to get this done. In our case we want the player (who has 1 or 2 years max left in the tank) and they have the massive contract they want to offload. From an economical viewpoint this could almost be considered a wash and leave it at that. The Jets going all in publicly on their pursuit changes that perception a bit and will ultimately cost them some draft compensation but nowhere near even one first round pick imo. Maybe swap firsts and swap our 2nd for their 3rd so we keep our pick count and they can have a win with the draft points accrued from the exchange. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby816 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Swap 13 for 15 (roughly a late 3rd rounder value wise) this year and a 2nd rounder next year that can turn into a 1st if we make the SB. Call it a day. That's moving back 2 spots in the draft and a 2nd next year that only goes to a 1st if we're in the SB, which mean we're damn good this next year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 If you combine the timeline of events with what Rodgers said yesterday, Murphy is a liar. He lied to Rodgers after the season about the Packers having an open door for him to return. Then at some point after Wingo tweeted it was "done", he decided to renege on deal terms and try to squeeze Douglas for even more compensation. He's using Schefter and Rapaport as his mouthpieces on this to float the irrelevant Stafford deal comparison. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeCoralJetFan Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Hey guys, Sorry I missed it but I just read that 32Boozer suggested my scenerio on swapping #1's in another post.

I think this is a very valid point and could be what's slowing things down. If the Packers want to rebuild behind Love, and want more/higher picks than what JD's offering, eating a bunch of Rodgers guaranteed money would allow the Jets to sign more free agents.

JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Swapping from #13 to #15 isn't going to make a difference as far as satisfying Murphy no matter what the trade value chart says. If the Packers insist on that, fine. Rodgers just admitted publicly he was "90% retired". Whatever trade cost they are paying is for 1 season of AR. Anything beyond that can't be factored into consideration for this deal. Worst-case scenario, I think you have to pivot to Lamar (or at least threaten to) and then watch Murphy grovel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(This will be the Jets fault in how they handled this situation.) There will be about a days worth of outrage and then the narrative will turn to 'well that is what you have to pay for a hofer.' I believe that you are wrong, and that the Packers have no leverage at all. They absolutely have to get Rodgers’ contract off their books, and the only way to do that is to trade him. The Jets are the only team bidding and it’s not Tanny or Mac at the helm, anymore. Rodgers has made his intentions known and the Jets, by signing Lazard, are making it pretty clear that they’re operating as if it’s already a done deal. Why? Because in the end, the Packers have to agree to a trade while the Jets do not. The Jets want the deal to get done, very much, but they’ll survive if they don’t. If the Packers don’t get this trade done to incur just an $8.6M cap hit this season, they’re looking at either picking up his $59M bonus before the start of the season or suffering a post-June 1 cap hit of $43.6M. Neither situation is tenable for them. If I’m JD, I give them a deadline after which I’m lowering my offer. Because they have no leverage. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nycdan Posted March 16 Popular Post Share Posted March 16 I have faith in Joe Douglas. I find it very unlikely he didn't have deal parameters in place before kicking off this process with Rodgers. I find it more likely GB is moving the goal line. If this ultimately blows up and we hear that this is what happened, I will find it hard to fault the Jets for any of this. If GB would rather blow up their current cap and future plans with Jordan Love over last-minute greed, then so be it. Both teams will be worse off for it, but I support the Jets for not caving to this tactic if this is indeed what is happening. The important point is...since we DO NOT KNOW what is actually going on, it seems a little histrionic to blast the Jets over the delay. JD has given us a lot of evidence to support that he's very good at this. I'm not going to throw him to the wolves without facts. Period. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 This year's draft class is relatively weak and shallow. If push comes to shove, I'd cough up a 3rd and a 4th this year and hold on to my chips for the '24 and '25 drafts. They can even take Corey Davis as a free bonus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 There is one other x-factor in all this. I would imagine Rodgers is well aware of what the original deal parameters were. If this deal tanks because GB changed their minds, and Rodgers has to go back there (without Lazard), he's going to be grumpy. I would imagine that a grumpy $60M QB can cause a lot of problems for a franchise. GB fans will turn on the front office faster than a cat hopped up on catnip in a room full of mice in that case. I cannot imagine Mark Murphy wants it to get to that point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
