[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 876862, member: 7261"] With all due respect, that isn't a plan, that is a simple notion. What is your plan in 2022? Will you draft the replacement? Trade for him? Sign a FA? When will this guy you begin to look for step in and replace Rodgers? How long on his rookie deal will he play before he is an above average QB? When does he want to renegotiate his contract if that happens? I get what you want, you want absolutely no money committed to Rodgers, while having a rookie QB step right in and can lead the Packers to a Super Bowl because you have used the savings to strengthen the roster around him. It's a wonderful concept, but the reality of it is, if every team could do that, we would have 32 Super Bowl winners every season. What happens when it doesn't work? What happens when that 2 year window of a "cheap QB" turns into a $35M+ commitment, have you closed the window? I don't think you are conceptualizing what the Packers are trying to do. They are not going all in on one year, they are trying to keep a 13-3 team together as much as possible, improving with only so much of their assets, with an eye on the future with other assets. This is unlike what some teams that had many years of losing have done, while finally hitting on a Rookie QB that made them a winner. It will be no easy task to transition QB's and keep winning, especially for a team that relies so heavily on their current QB, but I see what Gute and **** are doing, as giving the Packers a real chance at doing so.
