Yeah it's a really weird situation with the Jets. I'd rather have Carr if I was still in the market for an OC, but with Hackett there I'd lean towards Rodgers.

Jets and Carr would be phenomenal and make me mad Please trade mega picks for Rodgers instead imo

Taking into consideration the expected contract costs, draft capital costs, and age, I think I’d prefer Carr to Rodgers. By quite a bit.

I would be shocked if this visit with the intention of signing him without even knowing what Rodgers is doing because there are a lot of variables here. Rodgers is still probably the favorite. This could also be Carr drumming up a market for the Saints to up their offer.

mcmagic posted:If you have a Hackett/Carr pairing are you really looking at anything more than a wild card spot and maybe 1 playoff win if you're lucky? That is why I prefer Rodgers and his higher (much higher) ceiling. Aren't you constantly complaining about how embarrassing it is for the team to go a decade without a playoff game?

Really curious if the Packers would still trade Rodgers if he came out of his hole wanting to stay in GB? I mean, they did do essentially that with Favre, but that was super messy and you'd think they wouldn't want to repeat exactly that. https://twitter.com/AaronNagler/status/1626668035883802625

I can't see any team trading for him without him saying he wanted to be there....

Tannenbaum had do poo poo like show him northern Jersey hunting/fishing spots and allow him to wear camo and poo poo like that before he agreed.

Yea, and Green Bay can’t cut him so if Rodgers says he wants to come back and won’t play elsewhere then they’re hosed. But I think Rodgers is extraordinarily vain so if some team says they really really wanted him then he’d probably want to go there. He wants to be treated like he’s a special snowflake.

Diva Cupcake posted:Right so if he emerges from the darkness wanting to be a Packer, they're probably not trading him. Which makes the reports about them already moving on kinda interesting. I kinda get the vibe that he's already decided that he wants to move on, and the whole darkness retreat is him deciding whether it's just from the Packers or from football altogether. Otherwise, I don't think we'd be getting these leaks about the Packers being done with him.

There's worse things you could do before a big life decision than take a few days of quiet to contemplate it. I'd take a dumbphone and go to a cabin or a beach somewhere for a few days rather than lie in solitary but to each their own.

Nobody cares about Favre's tenure in NY so kinda doubt it. Even the Nets meltdown hadn't presented any juicy headlines.

To the point Jones finally making playoffs and getting a win is just a big change of pace there's not even legitimate backlash to it being a given he's getting a big payday extension in its aftermath

Yeah I doubt Rodgers with his gazillion dollars gives a poo poo about anyone in the media after he's spent the last two years having everyone bitch him out because he didn't want a vaccine and started shelving crystals.

He’s spent the last two years having a continuous meltdown because people made fun of him online and regularly appears on podcasts to decry cancel culture and so on, he’s incredibly thin skinned and absolutely cares what people say about him publicly. I don’t think it has any effect on his performance, but getting roasted in the Post if he sucks would definitely make him do the “ I’m not mad, I’m actually laughing,” bit.

I think the issue teams have to consider with Rodgers is that he doesn't want to work with new teammates over the offseason (or in the film room), plus he's old. with that in mind the Jets are probably his best situation because of Hackett. but even if you think he's the same physically as he was in 2020 it's a big risk dropping winnable September games cause he's not on the same page as his receivers yet could screw you in the WC race, which is where his primary landing spots project to be

totally true but I think Carr's floor is a lot higher than Rodgers, plus at least with Carr you aren't staring at the gaping chasm of dead cap off in the distance

Carr’s cap hit this year is going to be significantly higher than Rodgers’ $16m hit for an acquiring team. If you’re trying to maximize for a 2 year window you take Rodgers and load up however you can. Get Orlando Brown or McGlinchey. Trade for DHop. Whatever.

If things go right with Carr you could have a franchise QB for the better part of a decade. If peak Rodgers still exists he's obviously the better player but there's almost no chance you'd get more than two seasons out of him.

I would assume Rodgers for 2 years. I would assume Carr for 3 or 4? It’s tough to project anything longer for any non-elite QB with much confidence, especially ones on the other side of 30.
