[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 951049, member: 7261"] The only decisions that have already been made and completed are the ones not involving the scenarios of the "Rodgers Decision". The rest of what would be on these white boards are a mix of decisions and tasks. The results of each, effecting which direction the Packers go on the flow chart. Some of these are one way decisions, involving the Packers only. For instance: "Rodgers is being traded, we cut Cobb, instead of reworking his deal with him." Easy enough. Now if Rodgers wants to stay, the Cobb "decision" is no longer a one way decision. They would need to approach Randall and say "Aaron is staying, we want to rework your current contract and do this......are you on board?" We are now talking about a task that involves more decisions, decisions by people other than the Packer front office. I could list quite a few of these and they all involve time, pondering and negotiations, something Rodgers will have effectively pushed into a very tiny window of time to happen, due to him taking his own sweet time letting the Packers know what HE wants to do. Again, this isn't a normal situation of a #1 CB deciding what he wants to do. This is a decision that ultimately puts the Packers on a path to be all in on winning now or a path of rebuilding for the future. It's a decision that will determine what a lot of other players are doing in 2022 and how the final roster for the Packers will look. Add to that mess is the complication of trying to wrestle with cap numbers, not knowing what Rodgers number will be and thus, what they will have to do to with other players. I know some of you want to simplify this and say "no problem, Rodgers decides and the rest of the pieces fall into place in a mere day or 2." I highly doubt that is what happens. It might with some pieces, but others may already be off the table for that particular player or take negotiations into or past the Free agency period. This reminds me of being told to plan a trip and not being told your destination. However, once you have all your plans worked out, your destination will be revealed to you a few nights before you have to leave. [/QUOTE]
