[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 947006, member: 10086"] I know the FO means well with recent statements through Matt. However I can’t help by speculate that part of these public gestures about keeping Rodgers have several motivations. One is that this isn’t the time to start a war with our QB. If he leaves we’d like to be on amicable terms. Which means the statements mean nothing more than we will make an attempt to keep him (big whoop who wouldn’t?). Placating Rodgers in a trade scenario Avenue is a bi-product of those statements. We don’t need to create a stalemate in a large scale business transaction, so to speak. We have to present a deal that enables the full team objective. and it’s going to take a velvet hammer as they say in the business world. The only way I see this working out is if our FO is able to use increased contract years (through guaranteed) to convince Rodgers to take less per annual average. Trading long term security (risk) for a more team friendly monetary value. Also the Adams contract would more than likely have to be addressed simultaneously and we all know his contract is a biggie. Those combined would setup up a legitimate plea to offer a deal that otherwise might seem insulting. If Rodgers doesn’t want a rebuild? Then it’s up to him to take a longer deal (but with less average yearly) and possibly a higher % guaranteed (later contract out) as a perk. That enables Russ n Co to balance the books by providing our team with “known” financial variables with a 4-5 year outlook. It’s a time when the future league Cap increases should catch up with monies we pushed forward [/QUOTE]
