Comments on: Aaron Rodgers Will Not Like Tom Brady’s New Deal http://www.totalpackers.com/2013/02/26/aaron-rodgers-will-not-like-tom-bradys-new-deal/ Your Green Bay Packers: Telling It Like It Is Thu, 23 May 2013 06:34:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Kozak http://www.totalpackers.com/2013/02/26/aaron-rodgers-will-not-like-tom-bradys-new-deal/#comment-135127 Kozak Wed, 27 Feb 2013 18:26:23 +0000 http://www.totalpackers.com/?p=17275#comment-135127 Everyone forget Favre did something similar for the Packers?
I’m sure Rodgers will work with the Packers to try and set up a deal that keeps them competitive. Guy is still hungry to win…

He’ll be 31/32 at that point and TT will have a QB at $3-4MM ready to go as opposed to having to pay one $20-$25MM.

TT’s going to draft Landry Jones out of Oklahoma in the 4th round, and then sign a kid out of Vanderbilt named Jordan RODGERS as an UFA.

Sounds inconceivable now, but might be worth remembering in 2015.

The deal benefits Tom Brady also, 30 million signing bonus immediatley. Guaranteed money rose from 25 mill to 57 mill. Years 2015-2017 Brady would be grossly underpaid, But as is his history with the Pats, look for another restructure after the 2014 season, especially with the salary cap going up with new TV revenue. The benefit to the Pats is they get about 8 mill in salary cap relief, for the next 2 years

Sure, making tons of money is awesome but it really does cripple your team financially.

We are still in Prime Time as far as Green Bay’s QB is concerned, that will cost us a lot. The pressure has never been higher for Ted & co. to draft better than they have. Dig baby dig! I smell another youth movement, it’s already begun.

There is little doubt in my mind that Rodgers has the utmost respect for the organization and vice versa; furthermore he is an intelligent human being who understands that the amount of money one is paid does not always directly correlate to the respect others have for said individual (you really think people respected TO when he was making the big bucks?). It is a virtually incontrovertible point that Rodgers and the Packers will establish a contract that will pay Rodgers commensurately for his talents and allow the Packers to remain competitive.
