Trade a 1st for Jordan Love? ARTICLE: Aaron Rodgers wants clarity

Recommended Posts

I was reading the article below earlier and it brought up a very good question. With Aaron Rodgers having an MVP season and showing no signs of slowing down, he wants to remain the starter of the Packers and wants a new contract to show that they are dedicated to him for the foreseeable future, not Jordan Love. So what will the Packers do?
 

Will the Packers look at Jordan Love as the next Rodgers or the next Jimmy G (with the Patriots) who will be trade bait? Could they admit that they made a mistake drafting him and not another playmaker for Rogers to get over the hump and make it to the Super Bowl? A 1st round pick for Love could be a huge piece to help the Packers feel like they can make it past the Championship round. 
 

Would you trade the #8 overall pick in the draft for Love? Just asking overall opinions, I’m not saying we should. We have literally posted threads about every possible QB option since the end of the season, so this is an interesting topic in my opinion.

I don't really think I'd use the #8 pick on Jordan Love even if he were still in college.

I don’t either but it is a good question. He has a year of NFL learning behind One of the best to ever do it which is beneficial for a project like he is. He is obviously very talented physically but many people knew he would take a year or two to fine tune his game. If he moved and sat for one year behind 2 gloves it could be intriguing

When he was picked at number 26, plenty of people questioned whether he was even worth that.

I just don't see a year of practicing and sitting on the bench as adding enough value to make him worth a pick 18 spots higher.

Man, Rodgers really has quite the ego. I guess it has served him well in a certain aspect but it makes it tough for the Packers.

Yes, he has a rep for being a dick--even in his own family--but he gets Green Bay to the playoffs.  Reminds me of the Marino swagger--I hated that guy.

    • Yeah, Walker from Wes and Walker radio show said something about this trade went through but Mark Williams couldn't pass a physical. I just shook my head. lol
    • UNC's football relevance has always basically been, "Hey, remember how great our basketball program is?" To extent that has worked but they have never been able to capitalize on that towards being a legit ACC power. The closest was Mack Brown 1.0 and that was stopped by prime Bowden FSU. TBH, they should have utilized all these resources they just poured into Belichick into, IDK, a legit college football coach? This is one of the more insane uses of that kind of money I have seen in CFB, which is no stranger to insane, irresponsible uses of money. The SEC and Big Ten have already shot themselves in the foot. The model they are operating on only works if TV revenues continue to go up. Well, demographics aren't working in their favor. Economics either, TBH. The NIL didn't change very much, if you notice. The haves still have and the have nots don't. The only difference between pre-NIL and NIL was the money being below the table and above it. College athletics has never at any point been about fairness. It's the most dramatically unequal system in all US atheltics. My only hope is that the collapse is swift, dramatic and most importantly SOON. I would like to see the rebuilding of this all to something closer to what it was 40-50 years ago. Regional and not such money grubbing nonsense.
    • Meh Dalton looks washed. He was good for at least 1 entertaining game a year but Im not sure he even has one of those left at this point. His game style and old age hasn't been a good combo IMO.  Not going to compare him to Hooker because Hooker is another longshot to ever be worth a #2 spot. At least he isn't Plummer I guess. Young better stay healthy or they could go backwards in wins with those 2 options this year.
