If I told you 2 years ago that you wouldn’t want the Bills to trade for Aaron Rodgers, would you have believed me? It’s amazing how much has changed and Rodgers was just the MVP. 1 1
Logic Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 (edited) This dude was just minding his own business, daydreaming about Spider 2 Y Banana, and all of a sudden Julio Jones and Aaron Rodgers are available. Someone's gonna need to take his phone away before he offers his first born. Edited April 29, 2021 by Logic 6 1

He was one of the best qbs in the league those years and actually a SB MVP. I was young, but I remember Td, Sharpe and both wrs making big plays on 15 to 20 yard throws. Im not down grading his play though. Would you rather pay Manning, Elway, Brady, Rodgers there first or second deals? I think a fair argurement that getting a guy at the end is better than drafting one. If you draft one you have to pay. You get them at the end its cheaper compared to market and instead of a hefty extention in 4 years they ride off in the sunset.
Chicken Boo Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 They've wasted enough of his career. He should have demanded a trade as soon as the 2020 season ended, after last year's draft and playoff debacle. 1 1

He's played his entire career in GB and carried that franchise on his back for the vast majority of that time, under an incompetent front office and coaching staff. GB is a 5 win team without Rodgers. 1

Kelly the Dog Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 The best thing to ever happen to Rodgers was for the Packers to surprisingly draft him in the first round behind a Hall of Famer and then sit him. Now he hates they are doing the same thing to him. He's a dick. 4 1 2

These guys complain, but they absorb all of the salary cap leaving the team to plug in with lesser players.

Nelius Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 He's been there for 16 (!) seasons and only has a single ring. Everything else aside, he really owes them nothing and should move on for the sake of his own legacy. The way some are commenting, it's as if he's expected to play in Green Bay until his arm falls off or he pays them. Ridiculous. And I personally find Rodgers terribly unlikeable. Probably only behind Brady and Cousins on the QB hate scale.

Thanks for link and reminder. Although that article was before the draft saying Favre was coming back to play, and wanted to continue playing as long as he was healthy. And was coming off a great year of 4000+ yards and 30+ TDs.
Logic Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 I hope we never become the team that neglects it’s franchise QB, refuses to get him weapons, and generally pisses him off. Clearly, that hasn’t been the case so far. I can think of nothing as important as keeping an elite QB happy.
