Thanks for your reporting that is based on nothing factual in any way. Just because you write something does not make it factual. And you lose all credibility when you lie or listen to mere speculation by clowns like Packer hater Florio or Rapoport. 

 

Jon-Eric Sullivan(right hand man of Brian Gutekunst) has said that during the draft and after the Packers received several offers of at least 3rd rounders.The Packers have zero in interest in trading J-Love. Not interested even if someone offers a first rounder.

If some team was dumb enough to offer a first round pick for Jordan Love, the packers would be tripping over each other to accept the offer.

J-Love is going nowhere. I'm glad you think the Packers would just let him go after what they have invested in him. Yes, sure, they are going to screw themselves and lose the future at QB.

 

They would have traded him already if that were going to be the outcome. 

 

Trade a 1st round pick that many roundly criticized you for taking after just 2 years for a day 3 pick, and take a $6.5M cap hit?  That would be a terrible look.  Better off to keep him.  

 

And what more have the Packers invested in him than, say, the Browns or Jets or any number of teams who have let 1st round QB's go, have invested?  If the guy doesn't have it, he'll be gone one way or another.  The trick will be proving he has it, and that means playing in real games and playing well.  Rodgers rarely misses games so playing time to prove himself might be hard to come by and practices mean nothing.

 

But again, the real decision will come next May, when they will need to decide on picking up his $20M+ 5th year option.  The only way I can see this working out is if Rodgers told the Packers that he's playing for just 2 more years.  But then the Packers would have to eat $27.5M in dead cap on top of the $20M for Love's 5th year tender.  And again, he'll have to prove he has it.
