Here's a note from rotoworld, via Racine Journal Times, 4/7: "Club president Mark Murphy indicated that the Packers' forthcoming extension with Aaron Rodgers may not be as imminent as media reports suggest. The deal is going to happen, but perhaps not until after the draft. "It’s a priority for the organization," Murphy said. "I’ve kept in touch and we’re hopeful it will be soon, but these things have a life of their own sometimes." Rodgers' new deal is expected to be worth roughly $100 million over four years." The 4 year, $100 million continues to be echoed, same as in the OP. That would be a tack-on deal. With 2 years remaining at $20 mil, that would total 6 years, $120 mil, or $20 mil per year out to age 35. Those are about the right numbers. About the same as Brees per year, but longer in consideration of the age difference. More than Brady ever made, or anybody else for that matter. Unfortunately, the Ravens and Cowboys overpaid their guys by about $5 mil per year. On the other hand, Rodgers is worth about $5 mil more than those guys. There is a gap to be crossed, to be sure.</blockquote>
