Why are you still replying, I thought you promised to move on 16 posts ago. You should take a note from @BrowningNagle, that’s a much better reply than - yes he did, here are a ton of links that show that’s actually not what he said.
So he didn't say the Packers wanted two first round picks? That Woody would happily pay that price? Ooooookay. I provided proof. You haven't done a fucking thing besides be overly anal about absolutely nothing. Speaking of reading comprehension. I didn't promise a thing but I clearly knew what you meant there. Weird how that works.
So, now we both agree he didn’t say what you claimed originally? Maybe I’ve been approaching this wrong and I apologize, I don’t know what you know and don’t know. When grownups are negotiating, what person A wants person B to do is not the same as what person B needs to do. Those are 2 COMPLETELY different things. If it was the same thing, it wouldn’t be a negotiation, it would be a sale.
He essentially said the same thing, It's the power of foresight, speculation, and not being fucking stupid. If you say something, the duality of that something still exists. Regardless If It was directly stated, It was indirectly stated by associating the NYJ owner, the possibility of the NYJ trading for him, and the suggestion of what he believed the Packers would want. Then he further established the obvious by proclaiming Woody Johnson would happily pay that freight. We both know he Is speculating the compensation of the agreement by talking about both parties involved, which allows us, as fans, to come to a conclusion on the matter. So, yes, you being the anal person that you are, are correct. He did not literally state the NYJ would NEED to give up two first round picks to secure Aaron Rodgers but he obviously was eluding to just that. Considering the opposite of wanting two first round picks to get, is to also give two first round picks to receive. You've made this far more complicated than It needed to be, when It was a general statement based on what he ACTUALLY said, which wasn't a far cry from what he literally said. Glad we are on the same page now. I guess.
No he said 2 completely different things. If I heard someone say the Jets needed to pay 2 1sts, I’d think that person was delusional. If I heard a person say the Packers will want 2 1sts, d think that person was right… and the Packers were delusional. They are two different statements with 2 different meanings and 2 different reactions.
Didn’t you promise to stop replying 30 messages ago? Or was this another case of you bumbling the English language? We can negotiate if you stop replying but we established you don’t understand how negotiations work.
I never promised anything. You have nothing to offer me, so you and I will never have anything to negotiate between us. I've never had such a stupid debate In all my life. It's bizarre that you have this stance and you act like you actually know what you're talking about. Despite the fact that you have been shown that you make zero sense. It's amusing at this point for me.
If I heard someone say “the Jets will need to give up 2 1st rd picks to get AR” I’d think that person was an idiot. But I don’t know of anyone who said that.
I hope you told those people that they were delusional. I don’t even want to give up ANY 2023 picks anymore. Time is on our side. *Are you sure they said that? Your track record is spotty.
Holy fuck, somebody shut this down already. This is ridiculous. Lurkers are coming in to get updates, potentially join the forum, and see this. "About-face and c'ya later."
JD just traded 3d rounder to move up to second. It looks like he is really doing what Joe Banner was suggesting: offer 4th rounder this year and wait for GB to say yes, because they can't say no.
The only thing Douglas needs to prove is that he can put a team on the field that can consistently win football games, certainly not feed his own ego by "winning" at the bargaining table. If Douglas is fully prepared to walk away from Rodgers and Green Bay, what's his next step? Crawling all the way to Baltimore to try to get a deal for Jackson? That'll show 'em who's serious.
good move Similar move to what the Falcons did when they were at an impasse with the Jets over John Abraham find a team who wants to trade up, move down, grab some picks and trade that late 1st away
