Is Aaron Rodgers done?
- Thread starter cytor
- Start date
That would be an absolute awful move by the 49ers. Purdy has not lost a game since he became starter with a great qb rating. As well as a new fan favorite
Just throwing things against the wall. The 49ers make a run in the playoffs......then Purdy can write his ticket. They go out next week............? I don't know.
I don't think Rogers is staying. And I cannot see the Pack front office jumping for joy about the prospects of Love.
Outside of Carr from the Raiders, which...
....I agree make sense and a trade I can also see.
They need someone to come in and continue what Favre started 30 years ago. Packer fans don't want to wait and rebuild or worse....become the Bears.
Maybe Love is the ticket.......who knows. We will see.
I think Raiders have quite a bit of cap space and Carr probably only getting half as much as Rodgers, but Carr was benched so not sure Packers would want his contract either. Not sure where he is in his contract
Why would 49ers want Rodgers? Expensive and declining. Rodgers failed miserably in the game against Lions. Last interception was a
“WTF was that“ type throw.
“WTF was that“ type throw.
49ers would be dumb to trade for Rodgers. They’re clearly fine with the team they have and no shortage of serviceable quarterbacks.
I have a tough time think the 9ers would trade away purdy with how he’s played and how cheap he is. It wouldn’t surprise me to see them get rid of lance though.
LOL I think he has grown douchier as time goes by. I don't follow things all that close but the last retire or play thing really turned me off on him.

That article is pretty damn accurate. IMO.
Who would want to pay that big freakin contract?
Yeah, they have a lot of dead money dropping off after next year so that will be the potential then.
Purdy is exactly the type of QB that a team wants, he looks very good, and he is dirt cheap. They control him for another 3 years and his total salary is less than 4 million. Rodgers cap hit is $31 million, and his dead cap is $99 million. Rodger's salary per year is only around 1.5 million a year, but his bonus is $30 million in 23 and $23 million in 2024. No way the 49ers are going to tie down their salary structure on a QB that is not playing any better than someone they can get for $1.1 million next year.
Rodgers is either retiring or coming back for one more year. It's not that difficult to figure out with his contract.
People are questioning if he will go elsewhere, which won't happen. The Packers are not trading him unless they get around 40-50MM minimum from a team in the trade. They can't take an almost 70MM cut to a 230MM (approximate) salary pool.
At this point how much better is Rodgers than Purdy (or 20 other QB's). In games I watched he threw more INT's and his accuracy was off. Rodgers didn't have a 300 yard game in 2022.
Rodgers can still play, but teams will have to decide should they pay him $50M, $40M or $20M? The Russell Wilson free agent debacle will have some teams question bringing in Rodgers as the answer to going from OK to a Super Bowl team.
Lastly, what is Rodgers plan for life after FB? Walk away from public life or a career after FB? This might be a great time for him to have a Peyton Manning type career/life. I am sure Manning is still cashing some nice checks. Not $50M per year, but sustainable over a 5-20 year period.
