It was reported in the NYC media that JD and Saleh wanted Carr but Johnson was all in for Rodgers. I mean Carr might get you to the playoffs but not much else. I would rather go all out for a d bag like Rodgers than settle for meh. 19 hours ago, Einstein said: Rodgers won 2 MVP's with Hackett as his OC. You aren’t really giving Hackett credit for that?

I don't really like any of the options out there for the Jets tbh.. If they were in the NFC, Carr on that team makes them one of the top contenders.. maybe THE top contender. In the AFC, he would simply make them a year in/year out playoff contender. Rodgers could certainly give them a year or two of legitimate contention, but they are selling out to do it. We talk about the dangers of kicking the can down the road.. the Jets are hoping for two years of Rodgers before they have to deal with multiple years of 20M+ void year dead cap hits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Jests, they have just been so irrelevant and may have had the worse qb play in the league last year. So anything is an upgrade. They have a really good roster.

Gregg Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 The latest, per Schefter via NBC Sports Edge: ESPN's Adam Schefter reports "it doesn't sound like" Aaron Rodgers will be traded to the Jets before the NFL Draft. "Green Bay seems quite content to wait until after the draft to make a trade," he said. "Both sides seem to be dug in." Jets general manager Joe Douglas said last week that Rodgers is "going to be here" amid rumors that the team will wait until the second day of the NFL Draft to make the move for Rodgers, 39. Rodgers' massive contract has proved difficult to move, and differences in compensation have come to the forefront in recent weeks. Still, the Packers are likely to deal Rodgers to New York sometime before the heat death of the universe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t they want to land draft picks from the Jets in this year’s draft? Predicting Schefter is wrong on this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll trade next year’s first anticipating it being a late first round pick. The Packers should absolutely tell the Jets and Rodgers to pound sand. Call the 49ers. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCofNC Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 It seems like the Packers are backed into a corner here. Not much of a market for a 40 yr old QB that debate’s retirement every season, w a 50M contract no less. They want him gone and want a big return from the ONLY buyer. They would be better off seeing if they can’t squeeze a second out of the Jets this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have to accept anything they don't want to. They can let him sit on the couch (or dark place) and think about the 33 mil. he ain't getting. The Jets can hold out a while longer until the draft date possibly gets the Packers to accept maybe not as much as they want. By that time, other teams will be saying ...Hey, why not us? If the Commanders situation changes soon and they can swing it, what better way to bring that team to relevance? He'll probably end up a 49er. How cool would that be?

My point is whether it’s the Jets or someone else, if Rodgers will not play for GB in 2023, GB is better off trading him for the best offer of draft picks in the 2023 NFL draft, as opposed to the 2024 NFL draft. I’d be shocked if any deal to trade Rodgers happens after the upcoming draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
