If some team wanted to trade a draft pick for Hundley right now what would you take/want? If it were Wolf and he and he felt Hundley is really as good as he's looked I believe he would not hesitate to trade a #1.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I have to imagine that anyone who thought highly enough of Hundley to trade a #1 for him would have picked him in the draft a few months ago. He hasn't demonstrated at this point that he's worth a #1 pick, just that he was worthy of being drafted. Too early to really say anything else.

That said, if a team offered a #1 or #2 for him I would make that trade. Maybe for a #3 was well, #4/5 or less, meh.

Good point by earthquake about his value.

That said, 1 in the hand is better than 2 in the bush. IMO he has a ton of potential and as his contract expires Aaron Rodgers will be mid 30s. I feel we have something really good in him. 2 years ago showed us how valuable that can be.

1.) Nobody will offer a 1st round draft pick for him right now. Like Earthquake said, they could have had him in the 4th round in April if they wanted him.

2.) Hypothetically, if a 1st/2nd round draft pick was offered for him, I would take it. But that is pointless because it won't happen.

I really don't think GMs draft players with the idea of trading them for draft picks later on down the road.

If a #1 or #2 is offered jump all over it and give Blanchard a call and try not to laugh out loud at the GM who made the offer. Why am I thinking of Kevin Costner right now?

My thinking on why he drafted Hundley is that he saw a great talent available and the opportunity to develop an decent inexpensive backup for Aaron Rodgers for several years. I doubt if the idea of Hundley taking over for Rodgers was a factor at all.

Assuming Rodgers leaves Green Bay on his own terms (ie plays until he decides to retire) Hundley won't start for us unless its for injury or a Matt Flynn type relief game. He is not the heir apparent because if he has the stuff he won't want to sit behind Rodgers for 8 more years until Aaron Rodgers decides to hang it up (and if he does that tells me something right there. Competitors want to compete not sit on the bench) and other teams won't let him sit once he becomes a FA.

I think Tolzein will leave next year via FA unless no team wants him (the Packers won't offer him his million plus to come back as a backup because they have Hundley) and Hundley will become our backup for the next three seasons.

Ted will draft a QB somewhere in the mid rounds in 2018 (maybe 2017 if someone is there he really likes) and try to develop him like he will Hundley.

Hundley will leave via FA after the 2018 season if he doesn't get beat out before.

If Hundley gets some significant playing time (I sure hope he doesn't) and really lights it up it some team may offer a decent trade for him and Ted Thompson may take it but I think that is a long shot.

For all you trade him advocates what would be an enticing enough pick to get you to trade him away. Keep in mind he really cost the packers two picks already since they traded one away to move up to get him. Without significant playing time in real games teams are probably not going to be offering a whole lot. Would you trade him for a 4th rounder? Is that enough of a "profit on him" to give up a seemingly very good back up considering you gave up two picks and and entire off season of development or more depending on when the trade goes down. Besides that if he is good enough for other teams to offer even say a 3rd rounder might it not be a better idea to keep him around as a backup if he is that good. You also have to remember that if he is that good and leaves via FA we will likely get something in return via a comp pick so its not like trade him and get something or get nothing for him later.

Bottom line for me is barring injury to Aaron Rodgers which allows Hundley significant time to show he has what it takes to be a starter I think he will be our backup for 2016, 2017 and likely 2018 and then he will move on and someone else will take his place. That guy who takes his place, that might be the guy we have to start looking at as ARs successor.

The best thing Hundley could do is continue going to Quarterback U in Green Bay, and then ask for a trade. He showed more this training camp than I've ever seen from a rookie quarterback. He is going to be very good and puts the GBP's into another one of those horrible problems to have situations. Tolzien does not factor into any of this. He is overachieving being a #2.

Zero2Cool (22h) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
