In addition to the $50 MIL, he also demands to be at the top of the list in every news cycle. That part is non-negotiable! 

[benderbender]

Maybe GB could swap divas with Kyler Murray in AZ

[eball]

So, let’s get one thing out of the way…Aaron Rodgers absolutely deserves 50M per season based upon performance.

 

That doesn’t mean it’s the best move for the Packers, but then again they don’t have many options.  Love stinks (yeah, yeah).

Sounds fair..........he's only won the MVP two years running.

.... and choked to end both seasons

[Success]

He has ALL of the leverage.  I mean, why not?  Never hurts to ask.

 

I'm not as anti-AR as some. He's a great QB and great for the game.

 

[Don Otreply]

I guess his last cleansing  didn’t remove all of his BS…, 😂

[BillsFan130]

Why are a lot of people acting like this is outrageous?

 

He is back to back mvp and the cap is rising big time the next few years.

 

50 mil is about right for him

Packers fans have gotten to damn fat off of going from Favre to Rodgers and 20+ years of competitive ball.

 

it’s not even a question.

 

Back to Back MVPs…playing better than Brady, Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Murray, Burrow.

 

Spins it better than am arm in the league.

 

He sits at the top.  When you sit at the top you get the green.

 

Time to pay up.

Boy, you love u some QBs. First Kyler, not A A Ron. The two biggest douche bags in the NFL

Nah.

Rodgers is the man.

 

there just comes a point…when you just can’t here the “player talk” and I begin to appreciate so much more the authentic truth that comes from these athletes.

 

even if it is in complete contrast with the “everything for the team.” Player robot speak so many of our athletes are brainwashed into.

[billybrew1]

There’s no justifying ugly profane greed.

 

Its ridiculous Aikman or anyone else makes that kind of dough, while Billions go hungry.  Two wrongs don’t make a right.

 

uhnnn! 20 million dollars…. That’s not right….

He's as good and as valuable as any single player in the game.

He's a top 3 QB in a league where the QB is 90% of the team...

 

Pay him what he wants.

-$28M Salary cap    $46.6M cap hit in 22 with his bonus $26.5 base salary

He is getting paid if counting his pro rated bonus

Davante Adams is a FA  with a market value of $25.8M per year

Similarly.  I think knox is a better TE than Tonyan and I think Davis is a better Wr than MVS.  
 

of the 4, who would you rather have? 
Davis or MVS?

Knox or Tonyan?

 

MVS has been a solid producer with huge YPC since he got to GB.  Plus his a big dude.  Having said that, I like Davis. 

 

Tonyan is injured, so.....who knows how he comes back.  But his breakout year was better than Knox's.

Sure why not pay him and Adams and you’ll still have about half of the cap left

By having Aaron Rodgers at quarterback.

 

 

Yeah, they could get by with the two of them getting what they want. Cut five or ten of their other highest-cap number guys. Then here are some suggestions:

 

Cody Ford at guard. TJ Yeldon at RB. Vlad Ducasse, Jordan Mills. They can put a roster together. They oughta be great cuz they have Aaron Rodgers.

 

That's maybe a fair market value for him, but it would be force a rebuild sooner and not later. They'd be crippling the beginning of the Jordan Love era. Not that Rodgers cares. He's all about Rodgers.

I think the Packers have pretty well telegraphed what they think of Jordan Love at this point. I have severe doubts that we will be able to call his tenure there an "era" without seriously stretching the common understanding of the word.

This is a problem with drafting 9 defensive players and a replacement QB with their last 10 #1 picks.............they have done well to add Davante Adams and Aaron Jones to their roster at much lower draft slots than the players they've turned out to be...............but the drop-off to the rest of their playmakers is huge because they've not invested in that side of the ball.     

 

We've seen over and over again that you can transform a bad defense in free agency..........but it's hard to maintain a good defense for a long period of time regardless of the investment.

 

So why use your franchise building blocks all on defense?

 

When you have a franchise QB..........you CAN build long term success on that side of the ball.

 

Packers tried to cheat the system.

 

Almost worked the past couple of seasons,  but maybe if they had been QB-centric in his prime they wouldn't be at odds with Rodgers now............and they'd have a deep enough offense that they could move on from Adams.

 

Bills need to take note of how Green Bay has messed up being blessed with the best QB in the conference for the past decade.

He already is.  They ought to rename the Sirius NFL Channel the "Aaron Roger's Discussion".  They can't go 5 minutes without talking about him.

And while it's hard to have much sympathy for Rogers let's not forget that the moron Packers MOVED UP in the first round to take Love with Rogers at his peak.  Packer management own a lot of the crap they're getting.

His ypc is high because that’s all dude can do. He’s a lesser version of Torrey Smith.    Run deep And hope AR puts in on him.  He’s made a handful of circus catches, he gets credit for that.  
 

tonyan was healthy to start this season and was nearly invisible.  You’d take knox all day every day
