if Rodgers is intentionally delaying his decision after he already knows what he wants to do, just so he can help his buddy not get tagged...I would trade him just for that.
Rodgers has the org in a choke hold. multiple first rounders are available for the aging QB who has you hostage, have a little spine.

Great post. Don't hold ur breath on the spine thing though. This situation is getting embarassing.

I will say we have no answer today as expected.
I can't envision a scenario where not tagging Davante is the right thing to do. So just tag him.
If Rodgers plays here, extend Davante and play cap gymnastics and lets run it back a few more years.
If we trade Rodgers, I'll wanna cut some vet contracts anyways, try to extend Davante or trade him for another 1 and 4.
If Rodgers retires, I'll wanna cut some vet contracts anyways, try to extend Davante or trade him for another 1 and 4.
Don't think the Davante things matters much on Aaron personally, already rumored like December we'd tag him if no contract. Packers notoriously wait till the 11th hour to do everything.
So yeah, my guess is no Aaron decision either way today.
if we tag Adams we'll need to find 21 mi. by march 16 to pay for it, how many players would we have to extend or cut to do that? only to try and peddle that contract to a team that would also give up a 1st round pick plus to get him, in a year loaded with receiver draft talent, who would do that? also Adams will want more then 21 mil. per from his new team, if I'am a GM I wouldn't do it, thats worse then paying and keeping Rodgers

i got push back for it but i believe it more than ever now. The FO is scared of life without Rodgers. They are scared that without him they wont be able to build a winning team and they will be in the unemployment line in 3 years. On the other hand, they know if Rodgers comes back they can stamp their ticket to a home divisional round playoff matchup no matter who they have to cut to keep him.
I say take the draft haul and move on at this point. Have a little confidence in Lacoach.

you got push back because it's not practical, Rodgers even with some talent depletion still offers us the best chance to win a SB in the next 3 years, minus Rodgers and that becomes significantly harder, thats the reality here, you just refuse to accept it, the grass is always greener, but it's just as hard to mow

Well it’s only 18.4 million, helps to have correct information. But yeah everything in my post is what stands. With Rodgers back, get Davante extended before league new year, ya just do it. Without Rodgers, make a honest to god real solid effort to do it. If not, LIS, I’m okay cutting a few contract to get our cap right and get some picks.
And yes someone will trade for Davante, a fair amount too. Diggs was just traded for a 1 and two 4’s in a loaded draft year. Davante is better but older, but I would think something in that ball park.

If this all ends well, hopefully with a Lombardi, then major kudos to Guty for fixing the relationship. If we do win a Championship, this could end up being the biggest moment of his legacy.

HOW do you make a “cap friendly deal” when you are paying a guy $50M/year?

it's 20.15 mil. maybe you should get your facts straight
https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2022/0 ... -on-wr-dav
why bring Adams back if we lose Rodgers? this is a loaded WR class time to use some high picks on receivers
so many here wanted to dump Adams in 2015, I defended him, now I want to let him go and people want to keep him, for 20 plus mil at that, I doubt I'll ever understand some of you guys.

We need to see the full details. McAfee is saying that number reported is not accurate. Huge deals are never fully cap friendly. Might be friendly now, but will hurt later. We'll see.
Love for #9, who says no?

I got my will.
4 years is perfect because by then he will retire as a Packer. And we will have 4 more shots for a SB. It also means Love sucks.

no one would ever give us slot #9 for Jorden Love, no way
Long as we have Aaron Rodgers anything is possible
