Schefter reports trade done: Aaron Rodgers is a Jet

I just said I don’t think he’s the difference between what we did last year and us now “winning“ the SB. We can be in the conversation.

but, this is still the team that ended the season losing 7 of 8 or whatever. And we werent like Tampa a few years ago where we were a few stupid int’s from being great. We’re in the afc where every game is a challenge and we don’t know how any of our guys are going to be coming off injuries, Breece, AVT…. Is Mitchell going to play? Still many question marks

can Rodgers end our belichick curse? Can he win in the playoffs? I’m still pissed at him for losing at home to brady after winning 14 games and an mvp. If we can get to the playoffs we’ll be playing the likes of Majommes, Burrow, Allen, to say the least. Unlike the nfc where there werent many good teams and he still couldn’t get to the SB

hey. I hope he comes here and plays lights out and we win it all. Just sayin, it’s a much harder road in the new afc then it has been in the nfc
Lights out? He likes it dark

After seeing Rodgers' intro today, I saw a genuinely happy,
fresh, and sincerely a player ready to be a Jet legend . We were
one loss away from getting Trevor Lawrence but Gase goofed also in his
last act as a Jet coach. I hope we prosper for the year or so we have Aaron,
because when he does retire rest assured we we will be drafting late in the
first round. So let's go Jets!

"Rodgers, introduced Wednesday at the packed news conference at the team facility, said he noticed only one Lombardi Trophy in the team's lobby. It looks lonely," Rodgers said."

Aaron, you know who else has a paucity of hardware? You and the Packers since you ran the team.
I kinda want folks to pump the brakes a tad with all the Rodgers' SB predictions. He's been to ONE after the 2010 season. That was 13 years ago. On top of that, Rodgers is 1-4 in NFCCGs. Gulp.

Ironically it was the last time we went to the playoffs and almost played him in that SB. I would argue the Packers did him no favors when drafting WR's.

Aaron Rodgers was not having fun playing in GB due to his words (influence) being ignored for years. This has to be a breath of fresh air for him having his favorite coach (Hackett), and one of his familiar weapons (Lazard) on the roster. His voice is heard here. The Packer organization has been called out for their handling of stars. The Jets are getting off on the right foot by respecting what Aaron likes. As long as that continues each year, Aaron will continue to have fun and if he remains upright we'll get at least three seasons. That will be enough time to decide Zach's fate.

I hope you’re right but the one you’re most likely wrong on is that Zach Wilson is done as a Jet. He’ll be traded or released in a year or two and the Jets will be drafting a new QB when that happens.

That's exactly what I meant about Zach. Once Aaron stays beyond year two Zach will be replaced by someone in the draft.

Packers converted Rodgers 58.3 M 2023 option bonus into 2024 salary meaning he's only counting 1.215 M (with a 50K workout bonus included) against Jets cap this year and 107.55 M in 2024 unless the Jets restructure this year or an obvious restructure coming next year!

Wish we didn't have two separate threads about the same man :unsure:

Maybe I'm naive but I think having Rodgers and Hackett on board can do nothing but help ZW. He needed this situation two years ago, so hoping its not too late. Some improvement would help his trade value so I don't hope he continues on the same trajectory as he had last year.

I’m right there with you. Physically ZW has it all. It’s between the ears where his problems are. Who knows. A couple years on the bench with his ears and eyes on Hackett and Rogers, maybe. Probably not, but maybe.
How many of us thought that Geno was ever going to be anything but out of the NFL after his second year?
