It's an interesting idea.

I'd have to hold off and wait how and see how the legal troubles panned out.

And then you factor in what, if anything, the league may do about him.

Personally I'd kick the tires on Rodgers.  He might be getting a little long in the tooth but he could likely get us by until we managed to draft his replacement somehow.

But if a team decides to terminate the contract you have no issue with that.

The team cannot do so unless the player gave them the option, in writing.

What leverage?

The whiny bitch "oh my feeling are hurt" variety?

Yeah, no can do...

Players get traded all the time by “leaking” they want out. Hell it just happened with Julio. They apparently offered Rodgers the richest QB contract for his “whining.” Now it looks like Adams isn’t going to sign a long term contract either, it’s becoming quite the ripple effect. If more players from Green Bay follow they are going to be in trouble soon. Like it or not they absolutely have some leverage, especially the star players.

I don't really envision a scenario where we are trading for him if there is question as to his status. We are not describing similar scenarios at all.

Good, I don't envision it either. Kinda have a nightmare about us doing it, but hopefully wiser heads in the front office will keep us out of this trouble.

Rodgers would retire before coming here.

The guy just gets off on people being forced to submit to authority. It's bizarre. 100% chance his hard drive is full of some really fuged up BDSM porn.

Complete horse-hockey and more virtue signaling please!   LOL. 

Contracts are a 2-way street and agreed to by both parties...

...if either side feels it's unfair they should decline to sign.  

Own it.  

This feels like an over simplified child-like view. This is completely discounting the aspect of power imbalance and implicit coercion.

Another Packer getting pissed. No wonder they had an urgent meeting with their shareholders. Seems odd though, because I’ve heard the players have no leverage….

Certainly seems that something is amiss in GB.

If a team terminates a contract, the player still gets paid.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
