The negativity here is friggin hilarious. Gotta love it.

To be fair it's like 4 guys saying the same sh*t over and over.

Ha, didn’t pick up on that but probably right.

[Flashlite80]

So let's call it what it is.  The Jets caved.

There was talk about switching #13 for 15 or giving up the #42 pick.  We gave both.  There was talk that a 2024 second rounder that was conditional to become a #1 but that we would get back a third rounder if Rodgers didn't play in 2024.  Again, the condition is he plays 65% of the snaps!  Not that we make the playoffs!!!!!  And no compensation if he walks after 1 year and destroys 2 years cap!!!!

It will be great to have a true quality quarterback but if we were prepared to overpay this much, the deal should have been done long ago.  They are celebrating in cheese-land.

Sounds like he's just referring to the difference in cap hit for pre and post June first trade to me.

He’s due a huge payment soon, no ?  Eating that would not be a technicality and the resulting 15 million cap hit for this year is what I’m looking at.  Eating that would explain the draft picks.

The packers always had the hammer. I’ve been saying it for weeks. The only people surprised by this didn’t read the table correctly

Not sure I follow your point.  Not being disrespectful or arguing, but not getting your point. GB does have 2 5ths so not sure which one (I used higher of the 2 picks # 149) but math looks right based on this chart

https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp?RequestTeam=Gb

Net loss in terms of picks (not counting 1st round swap and mid round swap) is #43 this year and call it a 1 next year. Yes, a high 2 this year but we did not give up a #1 this year. So a high 2 and a 1 next year is the cost for Rodgers. If his cap is reworked to give us some flexibility AND he plays in 2024, I think we all would have signed for that (unless you really wanted Carr) when this was proposed 2 months ago.

Not saying it's a steal for us but it is a fair trade

It’s pick 170 from GB for Jets 207

What are you even talking about? The Rams paid a premium for a top QB who was like 32 years old or something. The jets just traded for an all time great 40 year old QB who goes into a cave and contemplates retirement every off season.

I'm stoked we traded for him but I think it's an obvious over pay. If we win a Superbowl no one will give a crap what we paid.

 

I honestly have no idea at this point, I’m carrying on 17 conversations over 4 platforms lol

[Yucatan Jetfan]

JD got bent over and ass ****ed
this trade cancels out all the other good ones and then some

This has Woody's fingerprints all over.

You don’t know what he told the Jets about his plans 

Does he not have $40m+ for ‘24?

It is possible to be excited about seeing Rodgers play for us, and at the same time think we gave up too much.  Unless there is a big financial piece where GB is taking on some of the $58M guarantee, then I agree, it is an overpay.

But once the season rolls around, I am going to be really excited to see a Jets team with a legit QB.  Since our last playoff appearance, we have watched games started by Wilson, Darnold, Falk, Siemian, Smith, White, Flacco, Fitz, McCown, Sanchez, McElroy, Petty, Tebow & Vick  its going to be refreshing watching Rodgers play for this team.

[jgb]

I’d like to see the Jets have a 4,000 yard passer. We had the first one (and our last one) in pro football with Joe Willie and are only one of two non-expansion teams to not have one since merger (other being Chicago).

Good bet we finally have an offense that scares opponents.

Yup.  Barring any restructuring, he is due $58.3M before the start of the season.  Given the buzz about him signing a restructured deal with GB to facilitate the trade, I am guessing some of that gets converted to signing bonus and hits the GB cap.  Sure hoping to hear that something like this is part of the deal -- whcih I agree would explain the high price we are paying in picks.

[JoeNamathsFurCoat]

Basically, Jets had to give up:

‘23 3rd rounder + Elijah Moore (=> pick #42)

1st round pick swap

’24 1st rounder

If Elijah Moore ends up being a bust, the trade won’t look all that bad.

AR better play at least 2 seasons.  

Going on the TB12 diet wouldn’t hurt either.  Whatever it takes for him to maintain an elite level of play in his 40s.

[ZachWilsonRightArm]

Leave it to Jets fans to poo poo the Jets bringing in a motivated Aaron Rodgers. Such a miserable lot.

They caved so much they are now super bowl contenders and basically gave up two twos... Rodgers has said he wants to play into his 40s

Who cares dude 

[T0mShane]

The 13 for 15 pick swap has ruined people’s brains. Savvy move by the Packers to ask for it, because it gives them a nice topline: “Jets trade two firsts!…” but ultimately a small victory.

You're really into the ass stuff. Maybe find something to shove up there so you can relax a little

The cap only stops bad GMs from building good teams 

[JetsRay]

Dear all Jets fans sniveling about this Jets trade that was completely fair for both teams.

And to the same Jets fans ignoring the financial part of this deal and the freedom JD will mostly likely preserve.

[TuscanyTile2]

This is still very concerning

Drafting a historic bust with our highest pick in 30 years has consequences. Glad to see this regime has a will to try to win.

Jets fans get wet when we collect third round picks and are in a never ending rebuild....the team has hit on one 2nd rounder in 50 years get over it. lol

[Charlie Brown]

Amazing fan base, Rogers comes to the Jets, folks complain.  Like a decade of not making the playoffs wasn't enough.

If the Jets win the SB, twice some will say it wasn't worth it cause we gave up picks that could impact the team in 2035.

 

[JoeNamathsFurCoat]

NE picks at #14 one spot ahead of Jets now

we’ll see what happens

Hopefully doesn’t come back to haunt us

Could easily see them drafting JSN or an OT

A Venn diagram of Zach’s most ardent defenders and those complaining about getting Rodgers is a circle.
