[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 911066, member: 7261"] My suggestion on trading Adams came with 2 caveats, both of which you don't seem to be taking into account: [LIST=1] [*]Rodgers is traded/refuses to play. [*]Adams refuses to resign with the Packers due to #1. [/LIST] Sorry Captain, but I am not suggesting "blowing up a roster" What I am suggesting is getting value for 2 elite players that may very well not want to be (by they own accord) playing in Green Bay in the near future. One of which has a simple contractual out at the end of the season. The other rumored to be threatening to not report or retire if not traded. So who would be blowing up that roster, these 2 guys or a smart GM that recognizes the situation for what it is? You seem pretty hell bent on a Super Bowl run this season and act like the Packers control all the cards, when they actually don't. First, complaining that they were idiots for not restructuring Rodgers and using the cap savings to go all in. When in reality it sounds like they were attempting to do just that and Rodgers refused. You yourself have stated that the Packers would struggle without Rodgers, a statement I totally agree with. Now you suggest that if Rodgers indeed doesn't play, contemplating trading a player like Adams, who admitted if Rodgers leaves he would have to rethink signing, wouldn't be smart? I highly doubt that Gute's goals don't include a Super Bowl win each season, but he is also paid to keep his eyes on the future of the team and make appropriate moves to try and maximize the Packers chances for long term success. Hanging on to a disgruntled/non-committal Adams for 1 final Rodgerless season and getting a late 2023 3rd round comp pic as a result, would be short term blind Tom Foolery in my book. [/QUOTE]
