[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 829213"] First, Rodgers dead cap makes him uncuttable and untradeable for at least the next 3 years. Second, Gutekunst would have to actually draft one of these guys to send a message and the affect of that message is so far in the future to be a shrug. The Packers do not have a suitable backup to Rodgers. Considering drafting a day 1 or day 2 QB relates to the proposition that Murphy has 3-4 years to turn things around. I would submit he's safe for one more losing season, if it comes to that, not two, now that he's taken high level football operations decisions into his own hands. Could Kizer or Boyle save a season in the event of another Rodgers injury? No. Could a new guy with some kind of resume do so in his year 2? Possibly, saving somebody(s) their job. That's what this is about, a backup who can hold down the fort. Just not at pick #12. And as things shake out maybe not at all if the right name at the right spot is not there. You're right about one thing. I find this QB interest, especially given there are two names involved, to be about acquiring an insurance policy if the price is right and not smoke blowing. [/QUOTE]
