[QUOTE="sschind, post: 951178, member: 10247"] I will agree with that regarding this paragraph [B]The fact that the offer leaked out actually makes the Packers look good, because if Rodgers decides to leave, Green Bay can just point to the offer and say, "We did everything we could to keep him."[/B] I can think of a counter argument that makes the Packers look bad. If he decides to leave people might say "things there must really be ****** if he turned down that kind of money." Of course that assumes no other team offers him the same. if you follow the trail of articles, you know, the ones that all cite each other as a source, you will find one on NBC Sports posted by Florio that suggests [B]"Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Rodgers has specific deals lined up with other teams — and those teams have trade compensation lined up with the Packers. The potential moves have been arranged, essentially, with the permission of the Packers."[/B] I could see a situation where the Packers told Rodgers and his agent they could speak with other teams on a condition that they keep it under their hat. That would also go along with Gute saying he has not had one offer made for Rodgers. Lets keep the circle small. Rodgers and his agent. Gute and maybe a couple of other Packers FO guys (Ball and Murphy?) . The GM and maybe a couple of other guys from whatever teams are involved. Potentially these talks could have gone down with the knowledge of as few as 6 people with maybe no more than a dozen. Going back to what Gute said about other teams. I don't believe him and I don't care that he lied. He doesn't owe it to be 100% transparent to the media or the fans. Its his job to run the Packers and if that involves a little misdirection then so be it. Also, if this is true it makes Rodgers' delay even less important because presumably as soon as Gute gets the call from Rodgers he can call one of the three teams and say yup, its a done deal.
