Rodgers Breaks The Bank
Now the talking heads can stfu up about where he is going. He had the leverage and they caved.
That's quite the bag for a guy who couldn't outscore the 49ers special teams.
Not surprising. GB has owned the north recently and probably still will for at least another year, unfortunately. Vikings need to focus on building something sustainable rather than one year vet deals. If success comes this season, great. But the focus needs to be on long-term. I think the new FO knows this and has the rope from the Wilfs to go for it.
Hopefully this contract ends up hurting GB more than helping.
Kicked to the curb by yet another Ex, money was the obvious choice here

Very curious to see how much cap space this creates. Seems like they will tag Adams so they have their work cut out for them. Obvious players who will either be extended, restructured or cut are: ZaDarius, Preston, Jaire, and Cobb

This just in from Wall Street, packer stock remains unchanged at $0.00 with zero trading.

I don't like not having a QB, but how about taking a flyer on Trubisky and then do some maneuvering to fit in Willis, all while saving shitloads against the cap? That's where my head is.

@"Waterboy" said:I think they are built to win now too. What hurts them is the division they play in but luckily you can get 3rd in your division and still make the playoffs. They have a lot of young and cheap talent, along with a lot of contracts that can be adjusted to create more space. They could easily add a high dollar QB and Von Miller and still be fine.@"pattersaur" said:I think they are built to win now, in fact I know they are, and Kirk Cousins will look much better to them than Willis given their collection of talent.@"Waterboy" said:Willis is extremely intriguing.

Can't blame GB for extending him. If he left, they would've had lesser QB play for the foreseeable future much like Minny w/ KC. Having said that, he'll be 39 by the time the 2022 season ends. His play is going to drop off one of these years. Hopefully it'll be this season.
@"JustinTime18™" said:Rodgers called McAfee last night to tell him he was coming back. McAfee appears to have broke the news prior to Rap. And according to McAfee Rap's contract figures are inflated. Rap has a weekly segment on MacAfee's show so I cant imagine he would call Rap's figures out if Rodgers hadn't given him a sense of what was going on.The #Packers and MVP QB Aaron Rodgers have agreed to terms on a 4-year, $200M deal that makes him the highest paid player in NFL history, sources say. He gets a whopping $153M guaranteed and his cap number goes down. A monstrous commitment by GB for years to come
Not surprising to me, never thought he was going anywhere. Green Bay would have been idiots.
