Matt Ryan is also "working on a new deal." Therefore: Clubs are purposely driving Aaron's price up.
It would seem at least as likely, maybe more, that the Packers are the ones driving up the price for the rest of the league. There's a lot more of them than us, for one thing, and while Aaron Rodgers may be worth a super max contract, others whose contracts are pegged to his maybe aren't. Also, the Packers are 6th out of 32 teams in cap space available. The 5 higher are all weak teams who aren't likely to have max contract players anyway, so just maybe part of the game is running some other teams into cap hell by raising the bar on what the top QBs make.
