Viermoo Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 It’s rumored that GB is insistent on this years 1st round pick from the Jets as a part of the deal. My theory is that they don’t believe in Jordan Love and want to combine the Jets #13, their #15 and next years 1st round pick to move up into the top three picks this year.

Popular Post Biggs Posted March 17 Popular Post Share Posted March 17 The reason they are playing hard ball is Rodgers is an assett owned by Green Bay. They want to maximize his value. They are not under any pressure to move him. They know who their starting QB is. They know what their cap hit is this year for Rodgers. They know what the Rams and Denver gave up for Stafford and Wilson. They know the Jets are out of options unless they want to make a big run at Lamar which doesn't seem to be in the cards. The external pressure is on the Jets to make a deal as quickly as possible. The External pressure on the Packers is to maximize value and time is not of the essence for them. This may reverse after June 1 but the Jets are making a 1 year run and want Rodgers in the building ASAP. Green Bay doesn't need to move him before the draft. They can still trade for future draft picks and current players after the draft. They may prefer current Jets players and future high picks. It's not cut and dry that their priority is this years draft. That's an assumption. The Packers goal is simply to maximize the value of an assett that they control. The emotional aspect of this is simply pressure on the Jets. The Packers have moved on, they aren't under any emotional pressure. 8 2 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His value is lower to Green Bay because of the contract. The idea that they won't maximize his value and the Jets don't have pressure to get a deal done ASAP is insane. There's a difference between leverage and value. Contracts are a factor in both value and leverage. Leverage comes from need and demand. In this case there isn't a lot of demand for Rodgers from competitors. There is screaming need from the NY Jets. The idea that he's worth 2 ones is stupid. He's worth maybe a 2 to the NY Jets and a conditional pick. A 2 would be high based on his contract and the likelyhood he is one or 2 and done and we inherit a bad contract that needs renegotiation. There are future drafts and there are players that can be traded. The Packers don't need to deal before the draft but it gives them more flexability to do that. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFSIKH Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 30 minutes ago, bgivs21 said: Wrong. https://overthecap.com/explaining-the-salary-cap-implications-of-trading-aaron-rodgers Wrong. Both teams are under pressure. Biggs is right in that GB does not have to trade him right now and of course maximize his value. He has an option waiting to be picked up. It can be picked up NLT Week 1. If OTC is right, it makes more sense for the Packers to trade him after June 1st. The dead cap and savings are drastically different (e.g. 23M more in cap space) than pre-June 1st. Their real pressure is next year because there is a huge option to pick-up by February Of course, the Jets want to keep their 1st. Lets be honest though, it is not a Top 5 or even 10 pick. Yes, you can get a good player, but will that player make a bigger difference than Rodgers? No. The Jets pressure is they are losing time. Is it important now? No. I do not think there is an NFL rule to say Wilson, Lazzard and Rodgers cannot go to SoCal and run routes. However, their best chip loses value. If the Jets play hardball and keep their pick, if the trade happens, their first next year will be in the 20s. Then you are pushing picks into the 2025 draft when there is no gurantee Rodgers will play. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammybighead Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Here's another theory. Listen to the people saying that GB is asking for 1sts. They're all ignorant jackasses who hate the jets, love gb, or just love poking fun at the jets. None of these people had a ounce of factual info to share throughout this drama. Now listen to the people who don't have an agenda and actual connections/factual info (aka Wingo). He says this is 99% done, it should be consummated next week, and would be shocked if it involved a 1st. Finally, use your own brain and logic. Do you believe a billionaire woody johnson would waste an iota of his time flying out to see Rodgers across the country if he wasn't sure this trade was realistic as far as comp? Do you believe that GB would let any team touch Rodgers with a 100 mile pole without first agreeing to a trade in principal that both sides are comfortable with? Choose carefully what you believe and apply some basic logic. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASH1962 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I say F GB, don't even make this trade. We've sucked forever anyway, one or 2 more years wont make any difference. We will get the #1 or 2 pick next year and draft another young QB from what we hear is a great QB class and be ready to roll with a loaded roster, and we will be able to pay our guys on expiring rookie contracts as well.

Given the deadlines for Love's fifth year option on 5/1, Rodgers ability to retire and cripple GB for the next two years by 5/31, and GB's inflexibility with FAs due to Rodgers being on the books are all reasons that I think GB has a lot of pressure to move relatively soon.

And as I said, the pressure is far greater on the Packers come summer and the closer it gets to the season. The suspense to pick-up the bonus is then. What that guy did not elaborate on is the pressure for the Jets. What do they lose from holding onto that 1st? As I said, now is fine and manageable. OTAs? Not killing, but not without pain. Training Camp? With Lazzard and Hacket, it is not as painful as it could be, but the Rodgers and the Jets are losing snaps together. What else? The Jets are held prisoner to a degree. If their intent is to get Rodgers, they need to have cap space. Is JD going to call the Packers bluff and sign Ryan? Good luck with that.

I think it's a terrible hit for them and for us but it's not as crippling as you're making it out. They can extend Love and draft players. They are likely in a 3 year rebuild and will be cutting salary of older players.

The longer this drags out the more this starts getting framed as a hostage situation. And there's no doubt a smart cookie like Rodgers will apply even more pressure in that direction. I think you are spot on - GB saw what went down with Stafford and Wilson and want a better deal. But the truth is they aren't going to get one because of a) Rodgers' age and b) that contract they agreed to. The longer this thing goes on, the worse their leverage becomes...

As it has been noted in this thread with the breakdown of the cap numbers, if the Jets back out and Packers don't settle, it will destroy them cap wise. - There are no other takers for Rodgers, no other teams willing to pony up both the $ and the draft comp - The Jets can simply turn the page and go after a player like Stafford, or get a lesser veteran to compete with Wilson and stay the course. (I realize this is not what the fan base might want, but the Jets are not going to mortgage the future for Rodgers who may only play for 2 years) Jets should remain firm on the offer they made, and force GB to blink, period. Also, they should go on offense and give them a deadline before reducing the draft compensation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they take it, Rodgers could decide he wants to play in GB just to mess with GB. If the Packers do threaten to trade him after they pick up Love's option, he could just retire which again would be bad for GB's cap, and onn top of that they won't get any trade comp. He holds the cards here. Also, you don't extend Love without seeing him play, and you don't pick up a 5th year option for 20m just to start a 3 year rebuild. I disagree completely with your statement that "GB has no pressure to move him". There is plenty of pressure. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of this takes into account the point in their career these players are at, and the fact that Rodgers is at most a 2 year rental. After the debacle of a contract that the Jets are taking on, those two items right there are by FAR the most important factors. Jets - Taking on huge contract, Old player, 2 years at most. Packers - HAVE to offload that contract to survive, no other suitors, Rodgers has a defacto trade me to who I want or I retire and ruin your life clause, and they need any help they can get to give Love some help. I assure you, what the fans think has zero bearing on JDs decision making, it hasnt thus far, so why should it start now? He didnt give a sh*t that most of us think Becton is a blubbery waste of a draft pick, he still drafted him, banked on him, and continues to hold out hope. If he cared what we thought, he would have dumped him for a ham sandwich. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
