Chaos in cheese land.
And this is kind of shocking: Robinson reports the parties had the parameters of a deal in place. But after Rodgers said the "90% retired" thing, Woody Johnson got scared to spend high draft capital on him. That would explain why the #Packers don't want to take less.

if somebody smarter then me can get a twitter link to post that’d be great.
And, no I am definitely not smarter than you
According to @CharlesRobinson, the #Packers asking price is a 2023 2nd and a 2024 guaranteed 1st. And they are willing to give something back in 2025 if Rodgers retires after one season. And the #Jets don't want it.

It's kind of fun to imagine all the different scenarios where Green Bay can get screwed over for trying to play hardball on this. The Jets have all the leverage. Green Bay has publicly moved on.If the Jets don't trade for Rodgers, they have to cut him. Maybe the Vikings should leak that the Jets have contracted them about a potential trade for Cousins. At that point the Jets are going to end up giving Green Bay the equivalent of a bag of aluminum cans in exchange for the diva.

How great would it be if the fudge only got a 2nd or 3rd out of the deal. We couldn't have asked for a better outcome. Rodgers gone and the cheeze only getting minimal capital.

I'm hoping they get less. If the trade doesn't happen, they have to cut him. If he started showing up for ota's. which is unlikely being he never does, but imagine him getting hurt. Since Lazard has gone to the jets, he has access to the playbook. The bad blood between him and the GM is making for some fun theater over here.

this process is Kryptonite to Green Bay's 2023 season.
Packers have no leverage.
Don't feel sorry for the Pack at all. Hope the Jets take their business elsewhere and the Packers have to make a decision on the anointed one.
Kwesi should be robocalling the Jets and saying, "Kirk is 5 years younger, never been injured, cheaper, not a drama queen and you can have him for #42 and next year's 3. Lets keep this on the QT until draft night"
I thought the whole thing was stupid/weird with it being so public and potentially could unravel. One side is going to feel in an open and well-known scenario like this they can leverage the other a little more aggressively. So now someone is going to be the 'loser' and the media will pile on publicly. Ego has now taken over for the organizations and their respective GMs. Shit show.

We'll have to see how this plays out obviously, but it is trailing to stupid/weird territory.
