My sense is that the Jets and Packers know exactly what's up and there is some kind of negotiation between all three parties going on behind the scenes.
I see a lot of people "blaming" Rodgers for this "delay" and I am not sure why or what problem he is causing if he is, in fact, taking a few extra hours to figure stuff out.
The Jets had something like 5 losses by 1 TD or less. They have a good defense and good skill players. A good QB could make a huge difference for them.
It's annoying the Bears have a GM that seems to be smart. I still don't think Fields is the answer though.
edit: although even if Fields is not the answer, they have extra picks to get a QB next draft if they want. They are in a pretty good position.
Gonna be rough if Rodgers talks to Jets and says "meh, I'd rather play for GB". If GB doesn't want him it's gonna be weird. I think what I want someone to lay out the real-world ramifications for all these $60 bajillion cap hits. Everyone keeps talking about them like it's the end of times but what does that actually mean? Do they have to cut or restructure half the team?
I don't know how they calculated the overall rating but they had Washington at 32 (Cards at 31). Equally horrible. If money was equal, I don't know why a FA would choose either team.
NFLPA gave out team grades based on a survey of over 1300 players on things like facilities, how the teams treat families, travel etc. Packers graded out really well (Washington not so much):

I realize most if not all convention center/hotels are soul less caverns of despair, but the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and Convention center is a cavernous maze of crap. All black holes lead there.
