this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; 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....

Re: Aaron Rodgers ... Should we ?
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 |
"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

SP should give his first born to make this happen.

Re: Aaron Rodgers ... Should we ?
Another thing I find interesting about this saga is that Rodgers and Love have the same agent I believe. That doesn’t sound fishy at all!

Re: Aaron Rodgers ... Should we ?
Loomis would do some complex math using equations with imaginary roots plugged into 108 variable equations with every type of term imaginable (exponentials, logarithmic, roots, etc) terms whose integral just makes up one of the components of a giant elaborate formula he uses in multidimensional analysis. He will fit him under the cap to the penny. We can't comprehend Loomis' mind. Never say he can't do something. It's like saying an alien from another planet with a massive intellectual gap to even the smartest human on the planet cannot do something.

It works fine as long as the cap is rising. This year is a speed bump in the process. Execute this process on Lattimore, Ram, and Williams. It'll free up cap room. Renegotiate with Rodgers with a huge signing bonus, extra years, voidable on the end. SFIAH |
