If Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to play for the Green Bay Packers in 2022, it seems like he will have to force a trade or retire. Per NFL reporter Jordan Schultz, the Packers have shown "zero interest" in trading Rodgers despite receiving inquiries from multiple teams already. This article will be …

Since Broncos is coming up the most in rumors, let's take a look at them, they have the 9th overall pick, that and their first rounder next year might be like getting three picks, so I might consider it.

But they also got picks from the Rams in the Von Miller trade and I'd like more than that, they got 9, 40, 64, 75, 96, 113 this year in the top 140.

Also, if we're trading Rodgers, we might as well (tag and) trade Adams and Cobb with him.

So say, Packers get the Broncos 1st and 2nd round picks next year, to go with Broncos #9, #40 and #64 this year for Rodgers, Adams and Cobb.

I mean, I think the Packers are going to keep him, unless he wants a trade or he retires. But I'm just saying there is potential value packages out there that could make me consider moving on.

It seems crazy to throw that all the way for the near term benefit of 1-2 years with Rodgers who, IMO, has a track record of underperforming in the playoffs the team needs him the most. That being said, I would not be surprised to see Packer executives piss themselves and change their minds like a bunch of cowards rather then continue with the road they have paved. The only qualifier is if Love has failed to follow the development timeline. Only the packer's coaches know for sure.

Basically, can we field a Super Bowl contending team with Jordan Love at QB? The Packers don't seem to be entertaining any trade offers, so I am left to assume they do not think so. Or they know how sensitive Aaron Rodgers is so they refuse to entertain it because they don't want to hurt his feelings or disrespect him in any manner.

Aaron Rodgers will never have a higher trade value than he does right now coming off back-to-back MVP seasons. If you think Love can lead you to the post-season and Super Bowl, you get as much as you can for Rodgers right now.

I am all for trading him to Denver and get the picks, and I have seen people saying the picks won't be that great but after looking at their opponents next year I think differently. They have basically 3 playoff teams in their own division then they play the NFC West (Rams, Cards, Seahawks, and Rodgers favorite 49ers) then they get some easy games from the AFC South but it still includes INDY and the Titans, and to top it off they get the Ravens. So I could see some picks from maybe the 7-14 range. And to top it off we could be under the cap and hopefully, have plenty of future picks to keep replenishing. The worst thing would be for him to retire but not with Brady and Ben both would get higher billing than him, or worse yet we sign him to an extension and be in cap hell and not be able to replenish any position, kind of like when we had to let all the o-line go back in the days of Favre.

Just looked the following year when Rodgers would be a FA and goto Denver they play the AFC East and you guessed it the NFC North.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Zero2Cool (2h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (5h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

wpr (7h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (7h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (7h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (9h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (19h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : 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.
