Crazy this came to a head on draft day. He wants to go to SF and they hold the #3 pick but that alone isn't enough and their future draft capital is seriously limited due to that trade to get to #3.

Gonna be interesting but I think he'll force his way to SF, but it's going to have to come together in hours and you have to wonder how prepared GB was for this line in the sand situation. Have they done their homework enough on the QBs to take one at #3? Are they comfortable rolling with Live? If so, could they then turn around and out #3 on the block themselves?

Interesting stuff indeed.

Give him what he wants. he'll come 

Green bay just simply had to give him what he wants they said nope so he said screw you im out

He won't touch us with a ten foot pole.  I bet he'd retire before coming here.

 

He can ask for a trade to the Chargers or something while he moonlights on Jeopardy

Funny this came out on draft night, you know this was on purpose. I smell moving draft picks, tonight may be the craziest draft in recent years.

I kept saying to myself that this one of the most intriguing drafts in a while, atleast for the 1st round. It should be interesting to see what all goes down.

I take back what I said earlier - I wouldn't want to be in an NFL War Room.

The NFL is batshit.

I am told that virtually everyone is scrambling, I can't even imagine. I can't even get back more than a two sentence message haha

yep, SF likely blew the ammo it would take to land Rodgers.....for Mac Jones lol.  That's good stuff. 

I just don't see how they can get Rodgers.   GB would demand picks they no longer own.  SF would have to dip into stud players.  Kittle level.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
