Paton loves Surtain. No way he parts with him
Seems kinda steep for a guy who apparently wants nothing to do with them and is like a 2 year rental
Rodgers has said he wants to play into his 40's. Realistically though we'd probably get 3 good years from him with 2 maybe average years after (should he want to continue playing). It's the benefit of getting Manning without the horrible neck injury of Manning. Rodgers can still sling it with the best of them. Find our QB heir in the next 3 drafts while still competing for a superbowl all of those years. Can't be much worse than what we've had for the past 8 years.
Except we won't have any 1st round picks. But if we win a super bowl still worth it.
You can't find a QB heir while hes on the roster or Arod will throw a bitch fit! 🤣
Wants nothing to do with them? What makes you say that? Rodgers has expressed Denver as a favorite
Wants nothing to do with GB
Allegedly
Oh I gotcha. Yeah I feel like Rodgers will never play for GB again. But I feel like his chances of playing in Denver are less than 50%. I bet he sits out the year and signs with a team after his sabbatical
Not possible. He can sit as long as he wants, GB still owns his rights
No on PS2. Not for a 37-year-old, even if he is MVP.

Nah I agree.
You're not wrong, but you are violating rule #1.
lol.
so are you!
Give away picks instead of players like PS2. Once the trade happens we are in win now mode while the Packers are bulding for the future.
ITT: people who are way too confident that we can just trade a few picks and some lower-tier players to acquire a SB-caliber QB. It is very likely that any trade for a player who just won the league MVP last season is going to involve some young talent from us. Any truly fair deal, no matter the industry, is going to include both sides feeling some pain.

Are you serious? Rodgers is 36, which I wouldn’t say qualifies him as an “old guy.” As Brady, Brees, and Favre showed, it’s possible to play into your 40s if you take care of yourself. And you absolutely give up a couple of young pieces and take on a contract like that if it immediately makes you a SB contender. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills seeing some of these reactions to this idea.
The problem is the value of those first round picks goes down significantly if we get Rodgers. The Packers are well aware of this fact.
He is 37 not 25. My thoughts are Surtain, 1 first, Tim patrick and Teddy B or Drew Lock. That is all the comp i think Paton would give up. Cant morgage our future on a qb who can call it quits any year now
Completely agree. I don't think I would offer Surtain in any trade. They got a 1st round CB anyway, so it's not a position of need for them anymore.
Likely Chubb or Malik Reed + extra comp if no Surtain then. We are probably losing a young defensive stud
I would be okay tossing Reed in there. He's definitely a solid pass rusher but I don't think he will be the long-term replacement for Von. Make it Timmy P, Teddy B, Malik Reed, 2022 1st, and 2023 2nd and that seems like a good deal both ways.
In the Broncos war room video "you'd probably do 1, 2, 3 and next years 1 wouldn't you?" Then a cut, "we'd be rolling if they did that".
I have no idea what it was about but I can't fathom it being about anything other than Rodgers. That would equate to this years 1st (Surtain) and 2 future 1sts, plus a 3rd.
I think that was a call about a trade up to 9. Probably someone far back in the round like the Saints.
Probably about a team wanting the 9 spot
The price seems extremely steep for a move up to 9, but who knows. Might explain that additional comment.
Picks only. 2 1’s, a 2nd, a 3rd and a future 3rd.
What are the other trades the article has? I don’t have ESPN+ sadly
Yes
[deleted]
I would have traded the #9 pick for Justin Fields...just saying.
Why would they trade Stokes?
I can’t wait to see Rodgers choke in the AFC championship game instead of the NFC championship game.
I'd gladly give up chubb for rodgers. Only two I really really wouldn't want to part with are simmons and sutton
NOPE... Might as well keep Lock and take our chances in next years draft.
If we get Rodgers, first round draft picks would mean less because free agents would flock to Denver.
No

For Rogers, that is fine compensation. That said, zero chance Paton goes for something like that.
Agreed. Plus it just seems kind of silly to do a swap of each teams first-round corners.
I do think Paton will offer something like: Tim Patrick, Teddy B, 2022 1st, 2023 1st, 2022 2nd, 2023 4th.
This is a much fairer deal
Replace Tim P with Chubb and we are closer to the real cost. Chubb or Jeudy
No to Jeudy
What about Dremont Jones? He’s an up and comer
I'd be happier with this. Maybe Reed instead of Patrick and let them pick the QB
Man I see Reed as a post-Von important piece to the defense. That would suck to give him up
To get someone like Rodgers there has to be a piece that sucks to give up typically.
Maybe. Honestly, I kind of want it for Patrick. Just wanna see him go off as the #2 to Devonta Adams... He'll feast. I just think he's quickly going to be relegated to the WR4 spot on our team and he doesn't deserve it.
Hell feast with love? He would be better with Rodgers lol
Yall are crazy if you don't think it will be 3 1st
I could say that you'd be crazy to trade 3 1sts for a 37-year-old.
What if Rodgers has 6-7 years left like Brady? Don’t forget that Rodgers sat for 3 years or so behind Favre, so there’s a little less wear and tear on him
Any firsts we trade them will be low-firsts. With Rodgers, we're at least conference championship contenders every season. So those picks would be in the 29-32 range.
They're better off getting good players than low 1sts.
This plus one more first should do it.
Packers have no interest in a one year rental on Tim Patrick or Teddy Bridgewater. I’m guessing they won’t even pick up the phone unless they hear one of Surtain/Jeudy/Fant
