I don't think this is true. We'd have heard about it by now. Damn rumors.

Which injury? His first, second or third this season. Jordy's stats are way better than Cobb's yet some can never accept that without questioning the fan's loyalty or claiming that for some reason I hate the guy which is beyond laughable.

When have I ever lamented our lost players on this forum? And please don't try and say I hate anyone on this team. I questioned the choice of Cobb over Nelson. Some people will fight to the end that management made the right choice even with its obvious that Cobb is a shell of his former self and even on a shitty Raiders team it Jordy is still outperforming him.

I think many people have a bad taste for Cobb just because we kept him instead of Jordy. My opinion? We should’ve kept both of them.

Our receiving core could be:
Adams
Nelson
Cobb
Allison
Valdes-Scantling
St.Brown

In no particular order after Adams.

Cobb lost a step after the big contract, but he seemed to have gained half a step back this year. Still he's not what he was. Better than just a guy, but not elite.

On another note, I’ve seen many people crying about letting go of Jordy. Yet I’ve seen those same people complain about Cobb losing a step. Jordy has most definitely lost a step, and he’s 5 years older than Cobb.

From what I can tell, it looks like there was the one story, then several stories who jumped on the original.

The trade deadline has passed

The only way Jordy could come available to The Packers is if Gruden gave him his outright release, then Jordy would be able to sign with any team he wantes to.

The Packers play on Thursday, then have 10 days off.
Hmmmmmm
I think The team would welcome Jordy back with open arms .

He isn't a #1, but a #3 or #4, playing in the slot and on goal line situations, imho, Jordy would make the team better.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

His stats last year were great with Aaron. I swear this line has been made up to blind people from actually looking at his football stats.

"He's great when healthy"

Cobb has been injured ever since he got his big contract. I complain about him because he never earned one year of his big contract. I don't care if he is younger, the fact is we had them both for 1 year. Cobb can only play slot where Jordy can play both outside and slot and is a redzone monster.

Zero2Cool (1h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (5h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (5h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (6h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (6h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (6h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (6h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (6h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (6h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (6h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (6h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (6h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (7h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (7h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (7h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (9h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (9h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (9h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
