Love is close to being ready. He is refining his game, making excellent progress.

Colts shipped Carson Wentz to Washington Commanders. Colts were a team chattering about Jordan Love.

I would hold out for a 1st round pick. He has 2 years of experience. The QB draft class is weak. Packers don't need to trade him. All the chips are in their favor. Get a wow deal or walk away.

Then again, once in a while you get those stupid teams like the Colts whom gave a 1st and a new contract for Wentz.

Having the benefit of a couple of days to think on the AB12 agreement, I think they will keep Love, which I think is good for the Packers and good for Love: [list]

  • AB12 should feel secure about his position, that he is loved, etc. Ergo, he should not feel Love is a threat any longer
  • I think AB12 had been a good teammate /trying to help the kid... this will improve even more so now
  • Love can relax, sit and learn and know that he is no longer 'a threat'
  • i.e. Love can feel that he can just learn, play his garbage time reps, and get ready
  • Love is cheap, and as Nerdmann points out, has strong upside:[list]
  • Wonderlik 27, above average
  • Excellent wheels
  • Well Above Average Arm Strength albeit needs work on accuracy[*]Needs footwork discipline[/list][*]I think Clemens with help this kid[/list]

Absolutely about Clements, and Rodgers has talked about how he was struggling and then was watching old tape and remembered some things he was forgetting about doing and started leg lifting more. I got a feeling he remembered something from his time with Clements that he was forgetting about, as Clements was gone but MM was still there.And Clements is a long time QB himself, though in the CFL, but College National Champion, 1st All American in college, 4th in the Heisman voting, CFL Rookie MVP, CFL MVP and two time CFL champion, CFL Hall of Famer.Just saying he's been around QBs longer than Love has been alive and maybe Rodgers too. And while not in the NFL as a player, he was successful.

    Just a reminder that #Packers QB Jordan Love is younger than one of this years top QB prospect Kenny Pickett and only two months older than Matt Corral.

    Something to keep in mind here is Jordan Love has more value to the Packers than any other team. He knows the system and they believe he has a lot of potential. That means the compensation is going to have to be pretty good to pry him away. Do the Packers think highly of Kurt Benkert in the backup role? I dunno.

    While I think the Colts are a good spot for Jordan Love, I just do not think they have the capital to trade for Jordan Love. Then again, maybe if Aaron Rodgers is locked in for 2-3 seasons, the Packers take Colts 2023 1st round pick? The reason this feels enticing to me is Packers could draft the heir to the heir in 2023 knowing Rodgers will probably retire 2024/2025 so he'd get a year or two riding the bench and developing.

    Crap, I talked myself out of Colts before I started typing and now I'm back in it.
