So do you keep playing the vets? Or shut them down? Or give them the option?

I'm thinking of maybe giving Rodgers the option, with the suggesting that he should fully heal.

But with the others, maybe try to sit them and get some of the younger players going and some live game action. Maybe not all of these guys, but certainly some of them.

Like maybe sit Evans and Brooks see what one of the young OG/OLB have.

Once they are eliminated, Rodgers should sit. Some of those other guys playing for contracts or on short term deals let them play. But yeah lets see some young up and coming guys.

I'm thinking try to shut down a number of the vets for a year.

Especially if they're banged up... though I've honestly sorta want QB Rodgers and WR Nelson to show they can get back in rhythm before the year ends.


But no need for CB House, WR Adams, OLB Perry to rush back from injuries...

Others like OLB Brooks, OL Evans, S Burnett, can maybe rest for younger guys... and try to develop them.

We need Bak to play, to give others time, and because while we got back-ups there, I'm not sure we are really thinking any of them can develop for the long term (though you don't always know), but I'm just not seeing the physical potential there... then again, I haven't seen OT John play.

Keep Kendricks going, as we need the TEs for future years.

Yeah, that's not gonna happen, but I was just thinking outside the box.

But it would be nice. Though if you make a serious offer right now, Adam's camp might be interested especially if Adams isn't cleared right away.

I think your "if im agent" talk is not well thought out my friend, lol.
