[QUOTE="Mondio, post: 781519, member: 10441"] It's not like Rodgers is on the back end of a rookie contract here making 2 million dollars. He's going to take home 42 million dollars these next 2 seasons. He's not "vastly" underpaid. He's on the back end of his contract and there's no signing bonus factored in anymore. 4-5 QBs that have deals done in the last season or 2 are ahead of him, like usual. It's how contracts work with up front signing bonuses and such. There is slight risk and slight reward IMO for both sides to get a deal done now, therefore there is no real incentive to hurry to the table. Rodgers is a professional and wants to win. I have zero reservations about him not being able to focus on his game. GB might make a slight savings by signing him now, Rodgers runs a slight risk of a career ending injury. But in the end, Rodgers is valuable enough now, is more valuable in a year or 2 with his level of play. To us or anyone else and if he gets injured again, someone else will STILL value him very highly should GB not wish to extend a contract. Rodgers can play this now and sign in a year or 2 and still make 100 million dollars over the next 5 years. or they can all rush to the table now and he still makes 100 million dollars over the next 5 years. and if they sign him to nothing and still franchise tag him and he makes 100 million dollars in the next 4 years. where's all the angst coming from?
