    Appears you applied Salary Cap logic to your schedule. Hope it works out for everyone involved. JD's call to Jimmy G would be a bit awkward at this point.

    I would rather offer Jimmy $26 million per year at 12:01 PM than deal with another minute of this Aaron Rodgers bullshit.

    We don't have the luxury. As you noted, we've been bad for a very long fucking time. It's time to win, not to enter into cap hell for the sake of doing It.

    I think Rodgers silence is by design. I believe he knows he wants to play and so do the Jets.

    The option cannot be exercised until Friday (March 17th), you are correct. If they do the trade and push it through, the Jets would need be $60m under the cap in order to take on everything and then on Friday they exercise the option which would change the hit to $15 or whatever the exact number is.

    Two other things that can happen are:
    1) The trade is agreed upon, Rodgers says he wants to come to NY. The trade is done on Friday after the option is exercised
    or
    2) They rework the entire contract so they can fit Rodgers under the cap now and it's done before Friday.

    Rodgers will be announced at 12:01 and the Jets sign Beckham or Allen Lazard at the same time and break the internet.

    I wish you on this. Jimmt G doesn't "move the needle" but if a decision isn't agreed upon soon, just peace out on this non sense already.

    You're right, I think it's probably option 1 to save the financial gymnastics but I don't get the feeling Rodgers is feeling any pressure to reveal his destination.

    Content with only Rodgers news to be honest. If Lazard comes with that it will be cherry on top.

    FYI - If Rodgers becomes a Jet I need help guys. Will change my avatar to him as long as he is the QB of the Jets. I am looking for Rodgers in red and yellow uniform with a Jets helmet. Can somebody photoshop below picture and replace Packers helmet with Jets helmet?

    Rodgers is still option 1.

    If it doesn’t come through, then I’d prefer Jimmy G at $25M/year and keep our picks as opposed to trading 2 first rounders to Balt for the right to guarantee $250M to a QB who most likely will continue to miss games going forward. That’s a risk for Jimmy G as well for sure, but the price is WAY lower for Jimmy.

    Maybe the Jets know already and Rodgers promised McAfee that he would announce it on his show today?

    My last positive thought before I say fuck this clown.

    Something tells me once our QB situation is resolved you are going to wish we had Jimmy Garoppolo

    I can personally think of 5 other options I would rather go than sign glass man for 25m plus
