Guessing the pressure to get this completed came from the top.

It was reported a while back that the Jets front office and coaches preferred to go with Derek Carr, but Woody Johnson wanted Rodgers so they all had to go along.

(not exactly out of character for Johnson)

Woody Johnson is the best porn star name ever BTW.

Rodgers is a nutcase and not a good person but he’s still a great QB and maybe a change of scenery is all the motivation he needs. 

This, plus Jets have a good D that will likely get better now that the offense can actually stay on the field longer than one set of downs.

I don't want to hear anyone else complain about how much we gave up to get the #1 pick. The Jets just got fleeced for a 2-3 year rental.

One AFC championship appearance and it will be considered a good deal. One Super Bowl appearance and the price will appear cheap.  One Super Bowl victory and it will be considered a steal.

Just like when Tampa spent the farm to land Brady, Rams with Stafford , you sell your future to win now, but that GM will look terrible If they don't win one before Rodgers calls it quits

The Bucs didn't give up any draft capital to get Brady.

The irony behind Rodgers following in Favre's footsteps again is pretty funny. He will most liekly have more success than BF and more than likely keep his meat in his levis. I just hope that for FF sake he feet Garret Wilson and they use Breece Hall like Aaron Jones, because my dynasty league needs them to be great.

What if our #1 pick plays so poorly he becomes a three year rental?

Then at least we went down swinging

Sure. Just pointing out that even if we get our guy, if he’s a miss, it was a questionable amount of resources to give up for one guy. And folks willl understandably question it.

...so when will Rodgers be with the Vikings?

Could see him have a resurgent year but even then, tougher division and the likelihood of facing Mahomes, Burrow and Allen in the playoffs? That is a hard ask.
