This is where I started yesterday. It felt like such an impossibility why even bother speculating?
However -- if anyone has the leverage and the DGAF mentality who might actually retire to spite their team -- it's Rodgers. Once people like Trey Wingo reported the additional context behind his request, it feels more feasible. Still seems unlikely, but not impossible. Somebody is gonna have to blink here.
Keep the faith!!! I had a good feeling about our chances to land Watson before the allegations came forward. I really think our odds were good at the time. But I can wait. Because acquiring an MVP QB is worth the wait, if that's what this comes down to. And something tells me Paton is not done yet.
FTR, for those who remember the Manning situation, it was hopeful but it took time. And based on my recollection, it was worth it!
rest - https://bleacherreport.com/articles/...pair-situationAaron Rodgers reportedly is so serious about wanting out of Green Bay that he's willing to give up $23 million.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Rodgers would have to repay the Packers $11.5 million each of the next two years if he retires and stays retired. Rodgers reportedly is so steadfast in his desire to leave his only NFL franchise that he's willing to foot the bill.
The reigning NFL MVP has indicated he has no plans to play for the Packers again amid a falling out with the organization. Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has been steadfast in saying the organization has no plans to trade Rodgers.
"We're not going to trade Aaron Rodgers," Gutekunst told reporters Thursday.
Rodgers' issues with the organization seemingly stem from what he perceives as a lack of respect, dating back to when the Packers traded up to draft Jordan Love in Round 1 last year. The franchise did not inform Rodgers of plans to draft a quarterback, and the decision alienated both Rodgers and some fans who believed Green Bay should have been focused on more immediate impact players.

THIS ONES FOR JOHNWOULD YOU RATHER WIN UGLY, OR LOSE PRETTY?
The Watson saga was heartbreaking enough.
Do not forget Rodgers Fiance has a house here in Boulder and lives here full time. There are many reasons for him to come here. If GB does trade him- it he will choose here.
The Plan at the moment:
Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).
Players I want:
Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell
I will allow it.
