On @CallMeMatub's leverage meme, a quick note. Just for the record I think the Packers get a first, plus something else. That's my leverage over under. If you don't state in advance where you think they'll land, I don't want to hear from you after the fact.
@BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub 13, 3rd and a conditional 4th that can go up to a 2nd in 25 if Rodgers plays next year
@JeremyStaring @BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub Why can’t the Jets easily wait until the draft to prove 13 isn’t happening? It’s just six weeks away. They lose little by doing that even if they are long-term desperate for the trade.
@MikeDrewWhat @BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub Could they wait til then sure but what stops GB from saying if 13 isn’t included we won’t trade 12 to the Jets? Or upping the ante and asking for 24 and 25 firsts
@JeremyStaring @BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub They can ask. They’re already saying exactly that. Point is it’s very easy to make that demand moot. Meaning it’s easy to prove Gutekunst is bluffing in a certain respect. It will then be easier to keep accusing him of bluffing.
@MikeDrewWhat @BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub While they can try to call the bluff GB via Mark Murphy has said publicly if things don’t work out how GB wants them they will still welcome Rodgers back, how serious they are we would have to see but GB has that card in their back pocket
@JeremyStaring @BadgerNoonan @CallMeMatub Murphy has taken a wrong hit for what he said since you are right that he said the OPPOSITE of what everyone says he said: he said him coming back is thinkable if their price is not met. HOWEVER the reason everyone has that wrong is that he’s bluffing and he is the worst bluffer
