[QUOTE="elcid, post: 855067, member: 12360"] Completely agree. I've seen enough late first rounders wasted. Granted, Gute seems to be doing better than Ted did, but even in the best case scenario you most likely will get a guy who will really contribute in a year or two from now. Given our time constraint, it is not going to be enough. If it is true that OBJ would want to play with Rodgers this already supports the case of trading for him. On the diva part, I feel that MLF can work well with a guy like OBJ. But I would agree that in order for us to pull the trigger on such a huge trade, we would have to get certain assurances from him prior to the trade. Inform him that: #1 He shouldn't be expected to be the star or the go to guy per se, just because he is OBJ. We have Arod, we have Davante, we have AJ. He is only one piece of the puzzle to creating a lights out offense. A potential large one admittedly, but he is not the whole thing. #2 He would be put in a position where winning is way more likely than was with his previous franchises, but also, not a given. #3 From here on out its football only. Big city life is not here in GB. He is to fully commit to football during the (pre)seasons and let go of the distractions. #4 And lastly, if he acknowledges these simple facts and hence strives to give his best, the sky is the limit for him and the Packers.
