If there is any pick from this Green Bay top brass that deserves defending it is Jordan Love. Quarterback is too important not to have a plan in place when your guy is coming to the end. Otherwise you are the New Orleans Saints, the New England Patriots or the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Packers have botched a huge number of draft picks.

If you get offered a 1st for Trubisky (they won't). You trade him. No question about it. Edited July 26, 2021 by GunnerBill 1 1
US Egg Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) Guess Rodgers really did ask for trade first: And looks like his teammates support him. Edited July 26, 2021 by I am the egg man

The problem is that the organization has shortchanged Rodgers for a long time...........the Jordan Love pick wasn't an isolated incident.............it was just the latest non-effort to stock the cupboard for him. The Pats did that plenty with Brady over the years as well.........but they had the genius HC to overcome a razor thin group of weapons around TB12 for "most" of those years. But some of the years they didn't win a SB.........was basically only because their skill players around Brady just weren't good enough.

If you get offered a 1st for Trubisky (they won't). You trade him. No question about it. I get it. I really do. Potentially keeping their franchise stacked @ the most important position in sports meant more to them than giving themselves their best shot at winning the super bowl. It really may have cost them that title. I also get that drafting him caused this predicament. Rodgers and his diva attitude has been in play for 15 years. No one is shocked that this is taking place are they? They knew there was a chance that the drafting of Love would lead to this. Might be time for Mr Love to step up and make the FO look good. Or terrible

It is just that Jordan Love wasn't one, even if he turns out not to be the guy. Strategically it was the right move. The idea that they are "a defensive back or two away" has prevailed in Green Bay for way too long. To never have given Aaron a first round skill player in his time is a failure. But the fixation on the Love pick makes no sense.

So, are you saying you wouldn’t trade him even for a 1st? MT will look fine standing on the sidelines in a Bills uni, but if we can get a 1 or 2 for a back up player, like I said, “run!”
CaptnCoke11 Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 He’s too much of a diva to retire. Little Aaron just wants attention

The only way they have power is if ownership caves. Rodgers' wont have power until 2024, when he is 41 years old. Unless he stinks before then. I am not sure who in their right mind thought the Packers were going to trade the guy and take a 22 million dollar cap hit. It would have been idiotic. Edited July 26, 2021 by thenorthremembers

Virgil Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Has anymore information come out about what this feud really about? I know the drafting of Love didn't help, but what the hell was so egregious?
