People on twitter are asking if he retired and I have read it twice and still can't see what they are talking about.
Either I am illiterate or everyone on twitter is illiterate.
Update: Everyone on twitter is illiterate. I should have never doubted my own ability to glean more from a 5-second scan than thousands do by reading the whole post, and I should never have not doubted the userbase of twitter. I certainly won't be doing that again.

Apparently, Mark Murphy "speaks" on Wednesday morning. It's a normal thing for him. But how much will the conversation be steered to be about 12? I imagine it'll be about 95% of it all, retirement or trade or coming back.
My biggest complaint about the Aaron Rodgers drama, is it always seems to get in the way of draft related stuff.
Like I really really enjoy the draft. I want to here Gute talk about the draft and the combine, and now he isn't gunna get asked a single question about it.
That's fine. But what do you expect Guty to actually say about the draft that isn't a smokescreen anyhow? lol.
:-)

Good point, it's not as though he's ever talked about prospects, the best way for us to garner info about players of interest is with pro days, and even that is very vague.

It's more when he talks about the process, the operations, talks about his regional scouts, conversing with coaches on player attributes they covet, etc. etc. I just eat that stuff up.

Between now and March 8, how many sources will write and post articles with headlines like "Rodgers to make decision soon!"?
Seriously, this is already past stale info. But I suppose if ESPN thinks it's wonderful click-bait...

Yeah, the piece about Rodgers making a decision soon, like, well duh....
Interesting piece say the Packers already have multiple offers. No idea if true, but interesting nonetheless.

She's a Jersey girl, so maybe has some league office contacts. I guess my big question is would any trade proposals ("on the table") have to be run by the league office or (as I would think would be more likely) just verbal back-and-forth between teams, for now?

They can talk, but the trade window doesn't open up until the league year does. So I don't think they get run by the league office until then.

I was thinking in terms of like pre-approval. Like the Stafford trade being agreed "in principle" last January.

Reports of Rodgers asking for $50 million sure sounds like a) packers brass making it seem like are making realistic attempts to bring him back but it’s Aaron’s fault he won’t and/or b) Packers legitimately wanting him back and Aaron trying to force his trade.
Or c) someone just threw a dart at a wall and made up a story.

That reporter sounded like she was making things up as she went. "His options are between packers, trade or retirement" - no &%$@ Sherlock.
