Since this is the "What If" leg of B&G...........Will AR be willing to split time With Jimmy G? Remember the Saints sending a 1st to N.E. was a done deal according to the Eggspurts, then they got Malcom Butler too!!

CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!!!!! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I recently read that Rodgers voiced displeasure with the Pack front office releasing former (very brief stint here) Saints WR Jake Kumerow.

Personally, I wouldn't, and it has a whole lot less to do with how good he is than it does with him being in his 16th year in his career.

We would give everything and then be right back here in 4-5 years.

As a fan base and a team do we want to deal with another 4 years of "what does our QB have left in the tank"? I find it quite tedious and exhausting not to mention divides the fans.

from which money tree will he get paid? Don't get me wrong, I'd take him in a corn dog second, just won't, can't happen. But I'm no expert, just can't see it being feasible.

Speaking of whiny babies... Marcus Peters

League needs to implode before it gets better. They get paid way too much and all need an attitude adjustment.

No we shouldn't

He would be crying even moore than he is in a year after we gut the roster to pay him the 35ml a year he wants.

The team is already heading into next years with Williams,Armstead,Lattimore,Ramcyzk,Winston,Hill hitting free agency as as its stands 3.6ml in cap space(yes this will go up with what ever rise happens). I think its currently 35 players under contract for next season.

Need to pay our own players first and then look at others especially 35ml a year aging QBs. You would be taking the massive risk of heavily backloading a contract on a player that could decide to retire or whos arm could quickly deteriorate like Brees did

SP should give his first born to make this happen.

I think Loomis and the front office know a little bit more than you.

Of course they do and that's why we couldn't do it. There are not enough contracts remaining to rework to get what we already have and need (a few vets) as a minimum to fill the roster without trying to fit a Rodgers' base plus any sort of prorated portion into the 2021 limit. We still have the $11 million post-June 1st hit on Brees' contract to make room for, as well.

We currently have $833,487 in available cap on the top 51 players. We are over $13 million OVER the cap on the 79 players currently on the roster.
