Biggs Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Take Rodgers and his contract. Give picks starting in the 4th round based on how much of his contract they pay for. All contingent on Rodgers showing up for OTAs and all voluntary work outs and practices. it’s a 1 year SB run. He’s all in or we don’t want him.

And the 1st round picks would be no better than the 31st pick of the 1st round. The reason is that draft picks will be needed to keep the ball rolling. Granted we are all hoping the next draft will yield more Wilson, sauces and hall but that’s a little unrealistic. Maybe as much as going to the show twice let alone once.

Maxman Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Here is my deal: 3rd round pick in 2023 If Rodgers plays in 2024 they get a 2nd round pick in 2025. If Rodgers is the starter of a Super Bowl game for the Jets that they win, they can have however many 1st round picks we are allowed to trade. 50 years we have suffered because of Namath's deal with the Devil. It is time to sit down with the Devil again, pay him his respect, and cut a new deal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were only 26 teams in the NFL from 1970-1975; 28 teams from 1976-1994, 30 teams from 1995-1998 and 31 teams from 1999-2002..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying abstractly 1 ring is worth more than ten first round picks. Of course in real life you can never guarantee your efforts will result in a championship.

So why are we throwing picks that aren’t needed at him Until we have a deal with Green Bay, we have to do more than we are currently doing to get Rodgers. Perhaps if we wait it out, then the end result is that we don't need to throw picks that aren't needed. Right now, I don't know what the end result will be. I like giving up contingency picks, because giving up higher picks would mean that Rodgers is doing great things for our NY Jets. If he doesn't do great things, then all we are giving up is a 3rd round pick this year, and a 4th round pick next year. Do you think that Joe Douglas will do better than that? I don't. With contingency picks, we only give up higher draft picks based upon the Jets doing great things. Personally, I have my doubts. Will the Jets go to the AFC Championship game next year? If so, then we would give up a 2nd round pick next year. The second round pick would be at the very bottom of round #2. Not so terrible if you ask me.

Or GB has to come off their new demands, come down off thinking they’re getting a first for Rodgers, this years first. I don’t care if we get to the AFCCG. I only give more for the SB. I’m not giving a high pick for a game we got to with Sanchez. Especially because AR12 could decide to retire after one season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving up the #31 pick in the draft for that, almost every Jets fan would go for that. If the Jets duplicated that again the following year, that would be a dream come true. You gotta look at the big picture. And what do you consider the Jets not caving? To me, giving up a 3rd round pick this year is not caving. Giving up anything in the future is all conditional on how well things work out for the Jets. It’s caving because there’s no reason to do it Rodgers is not retiring and the Packers are not paying him 60 million to sit on the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
