Oso planning to go pro
Gotta remember that all of those 1st rounders would be in the 25-32 range.
Yup. I think NYG would be pretty good with Rodgers. At least on offense.That said, I’m not really entertaining trades unless Rodgers has zero intention of playing in Green Bay no matter what happens. Or Love looks like the second coming of Mahomes.
As a Giants fan that has to be the worst deal ever. If I were the Giants I would trade first round drafts only for the top offensive and defensive tackles.
Speculation on adverse PR for Aaron Rodgershttps://sports.yahoo.com/has-green-bay-turned-on-aaron-rodgers-210606049.html
Rodgers skips first OTA. Should this shut up all the mouth breathing sports talk listeners / callers (aka Badger fans) who think this "whole thing" is somehow Adam Schefter's fault.
To be fair they are voluntary. I think June 8 is the first mandatory practice for the Packers. That will be most telling.I also saw some other Packers skipped OTAs due to disagreements between the NFLPA and NFL. Rodgers has been pretty involved for the NFLPA.
Rodgers goes on SportsCenter and basic at completely validates every report by the media. Says it has nothing to do with Love or the Draft but things going back to last year. Also doesn’t say one word about his stances / solidarity with the NFLPA’s push to have guys skip. Can we end the charade that Schefter was making this all up and the media is responsible?
I think he wants more guarantees in his contract further out. The rest of this is public negotiation.
"shut up and play"? Bold thing to tell the league MVP
Yeah, especially when he's under contract, aina?
He hasn’t violated his contract.
He might have, GBP puts an inordinate amount of compensation on attending off season training. And while you could argue he may not have violated it, rather he just didn't trigger certain clauses, he knows what he is doing and he is very intentionally upsetting the norm in Green Bay. Attendance at Packers OTAs and Mini Camps are amongst the best in the league. It is assumed in Green Bay that you work from April 15th to June 15th. His absence is significant.
I believe that it is strictly an incentive, not a contractual obligation. Andrew Brandt mentioned in the past they put a lot of incentive money into OTAs in order to get people to come. Being Green Bay isn’t the most exciting place, they always have more incentives than other teams.Also, most of the starting WRs missed. So not the only person not there. I’m not too worried until the June 8 mandatory practices. Granted, he’s got enough money to sustain the fines to prove a point. I think he wants to stay. Just wants more security in his contracts as he’s basically on a year to year deal.
