[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 991561, member: 4199"] I have just re-read your original comment about Rucket getting hurt. I think I parse what you are saying, but that sentence could use some wordsmitthing. I'm certainly fair from perfect, so don't take it as me throwing stones in a glass house, but it the sentence beginning [I]"He was a do it all TE at OSU"[/I] is quite the run-on and I see why I misread it. Your clarification here makes more sense. I dislike him slightly less. I'm not going to claim to be an expert on players on other teams. What I do know is relative to the proximity to the Packers. Ergo, I know the most about our players, the next most about the other NFC North teams, then the rest of the NFC, etc. The Jets on the whole are far away from the Packers in this context. Sure, that's all possible, but he has thus far (apparently) flopped in the NFL. I know a little more about him due to the chatter around the Jets trying to trade him and well, let's be honest, our dire need for receiving talent. Nothing excites me about him. I wouldn't mind bringing him as a FA or waiver wire claim, but I wouldn't spend resources to get him. I don't disagree, my question is do the Packers? This is one of those more rhetorical kinds of questions. For all we know, the Packers failed him from their draft board for some reason. Or gave him something like a 6th round grade. On the flip side, maybe they loved him and targeted him in the second before they went and got Watson. In which case, sure, great, Gute should see if he could work him into any such deal with the Jets. On the other other side (:)) if the Jets want to win-now, why would they give up good players to help them win now? My opinion is if Rodgers is on our roster after the draft, what motivation do we have to trade him? Ideally, Gute will have his answer from Rodgers before FA. The draft happens. While both operations should serve both today and next year, the "today" is different with or without Rodgers. It'd really kind of screw 2023 if the roster building up to June 1st assumes Rodgers is present, but then he's not come June 2nd. [/QUOTE]
