curious if other teams like Miami are throwing a last minute wrench into this thing
Has King of the Sledding Hill had anything to say today? Or does he just sell sledding and sled accessories?
Imagine being David Dunn at the moment trying to navigate through this shit show.
Why, exactly, is Rodgers holding the Packers hostage?

They've made it pretty clear they're moving on to Jordan Love.
Whether they trade him (or he retires) now or later, no impact for them.
It seems they've prepared, financially and emotionally, for this, whenever it happens.
It would be so cool if Rodgers simply tweets, “I’m taking my talents to South Beach.”
This fucking guy. What is he waiting for? The non tampering period is open and is he trying to screw over both the Jets and Packers?
It's a business decision. Didn't know Andrew was a fucking troller.
When the Jets & Packers strike a deal, and Rodgers & the Jets are done
dealing we will know.
He's going to blow the deal and back the Packers into a corner. The Jets are only going to have so much patience before they move on. I'm sure they are sending out feelers as we speak. They could reach a deal in principle with Jimmy G and end the Rodgers fiasco in 10 minutes.

The Jets and Packers likely have struck a deal. It's all about Rodgers divulging what he wants to do, something he's probably known since the end of the season.
Maybe Rodgers isn’t sold on the Jets and is waiting on another team to go after him.
@packerboi posted:@SandoNFLRelinquishing power over the #packers could be the most difficult aspect of any decision by the QB to move on from the team. He really has seemed to relish it. Without it, would all this be as fun?
What power over the packers does he have exactly? He's really only screwing over the Jets by waiting.
I can promise you right now the Jets have no idea what he’s going to do https://t.co/pFjT4auA1N

He doesn't have a no trade clause. Plenty of time to sort this out. Just not for the draft or financial capital hoped for.
Someone give us the kid from A Christmas Story saying "fun"

Aaaaand, the Jets lose out on Jimmy G as a backup plan.
The #Raiders are closing in on a deal with QB Jimmy Garoppolo, sources say. After six seasons and a Super Bowl appearance with the #49ers, Jimmy G is on his way to Vegas, the site of this season’s Super Bowl, to reunite with Josh McDaniels. pic.twitter.com/R4dSLyj5SX

If anything, this is good for the Packers, as it could up the compensation for Rodgers...if he ever makes a decision. If he's trying to fuck the Packers by stalling, it's not working.

I feel sorry for the Jets. Tough dealing with a psychopath.
Aaaand, the Jets just lost out on one of their backups, and Miami is now certainly off the table for any possible Rodgers trade.
Miami is giving former Jets’ QB Mike White a two-year deal worth up to $16 million, per source. pic.twitter.com/NTSnFxAvgc

I think he's screwing the Packers more. The Packers need to know where their cap is. They signed Nixon but there could be a few more deals being held up. If Rodgers does go to the Jets the Packers have $9 mil less cap room to work with. While the deal is in limbo that money can't be allocated to another deal. Not getting Rodgers means the Jets are losing something they never had and Jimmy G wasn't going to take them anywhere anyway. He'll be a placeholder for the Raiders as they use the #7 pick on their future QB. Rodgers is messing with their other FA decisions as they wait to know where their cap settles.
Baker Mayfield is still in play for the Jets.
Maybe Aaron Rodgers waiting is a negotiation ploy orchestrated to make the #Jets desperate, so he can re-work the contract to make it more than a one-year, $59M deal. Wouldn't be a bad strategy if that's what he's after.

I’d be concerned with how this wait resonates within #Jets locker room. Players want him, but Rodgers continuing to drag this out?

Gives impression he’s not all-in. Having talked to several, that doesn’t sit well with them.
Either commit or don’t. Drama unneeded.

Yup, a good FO would up the ante…..now

?????????????????
It might be as late as Wednesday. We really don’t know what (if anything) is going on behind closed doors. I keep telling myself that it may be dragging on as far as coverage goes, yet decisions are being made somewhere. And no decision IS a decision.
packers have to think about a vet QB backup as well in free agency if 12 leaves so this is mildly amusing.
I love the fact that fans “not knowing anything” creates so much anxiety and anger. Hilarious even,
I’m some dude sitting at a computer in southern AZ. And if I don’t know yet what’s going on, neither do the Packers,Jets, or anyone else. AR has stalled the system. Trey Wingo and a bunch of others have said so.

Packers weren't going to be FA players this week other than a few of their own guys, like what they did with Nixon.

And that is Wednesday, actual start of new league year.
