Bakh is possible. And whatā€™s fueling it even more is that 2 weeks ago he was supposed to rework his deal. That has yet to happen while every other Packer in line for a restructured deal has already happened.

Denzel Mims and Elijah Moore could be WRs GB could get in the deal. Mims has underperformed and could use new scenery. Names to watch.

He's implying that once Rodgers signs, a bunch of other players who are FA's are going to sign on too.  No doubt Rodgers told the Jets he wants Lazard, Tonyan, Cobb and Big Dog, because he's said that to the Packers.  And you know other guys who are FA's looking for a ring will want to latch on if the Jets are looking to go all in.

Just unimaginable stuff if it comes to pass. FFS.

i believe Gute will send Bakhtiari off to NY with AR. He spent a lot of draft capital on the offensive line last year and signed Jenkins to a new contract. Jenkins will go to LT, Runyan to LG, Myers at Center, Tom at RG and Nijman or the new draft pick at RT. It he does go, Packers will get picks this year and next. Hopefully he can come away with a 1 this year and next.  Maybe he sends Sean Ryan off to NY for Becton. There are going to be some growing pains.

The fact that Bakh hasn't been restructured yet is telling.  It means Gute is open to it, because there's no reason to restructure if he's going to be traded.  Bakh has $9.5m due on March 17 so something needs to happen by then regardless.

I also question if the Jets can afford to take on both Rodgers and Bakh.  Jets are 1.5m over the cap currently.  They have a bunch of space to clear even if Rodgers and Bakh were to restructure for them.  They're not like the Raiders who basically have infinite money to throw at them.

Except that Rodgers couldn't get those guys rings in GB....with the number 1 seed...at home...playing warm weather teams in below freezing Temps. Other than the magical ride in 2010 (and even then he struggled against the Bears) he was seldom a difference maker in the playoffs.

I don't see this. Tom is much better at tackle than guard. I see him as more likely a replacement for Nijman at RT. Keep Bak at LT and keep Jenkins at guard.

That may be true in the MLF era, but he was definitely a difference maker many times prior to that.

There have been several posts in this thread about ALL things media-related, especially reporters and "sources". So this lead to another question:

How would Gardner, a 1st year player, have ANY idea of the inner workings of his team's management?
Unless the Jets run all their decisions by him for approval/rejection, he doesn't know anything more than the Silversteins and Schefters of the world.

AR's career QB Rating in playoff games is 100.1 .... Tom Brady's is 89.8
