[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 911709, member: 7261"] I think waiting until 2022 is almost the best of both worlds. It sends the message to Rodgers and other players, that there is a cost to play that game with them. However, that expense is minimal for the Packers, since Rodgers wouldn't have played for them in 2021 anyway AND they now have more teams to bid on him and an actual idea of what the 2022 picks being offered are actually worth. They also get the benefit of saving on having to pay him, so big cap and cash savings. Probably the only 2 risks you run, AR decides to put both middle fingers up and retires. I think that is a low risk. Second risk, he is a year older and some teams might not be willing to give up as much. Of course, his legs and maybe his mind will be a lot fresher. I also prefer that scenario over a deal hatched out now whereas the Packers agree that if Rodgers plays in 2021, they will immediately trade him after the season. Take the salary and bonus savings now, don't risk injury and let him sit it out if he won't come back without the Packers having to first placate his demands. [/QUOTE]
