I only went Greinke because Peralta is very forgettable/overshadowed over his tenure. Burnes/Woodruff are both better and more consistent. Plus other wildly likable players exist on the team too (Yeli for some and also Adames). I also continued support for Aoki. Lucroy was a good player, but he was a bit of an annoying whiner like Burnes towards the end...plus that darn suitcase falling on his hand. I actually went Morgan over Woodruff. Both have legendary postseason moments, but Morgan was quite a unique guy on a very good team. Woodruff is great, but a little more reserved/quiet. If I was filling a room with former Brewers to hang with, I would definitely want Morgan over Woodruff. Morgan's seeding was by far the worst the committee made. He should honestly be a #3.

A few intriguing match ups finally. I picked Aoki for the biggest upset yet. He was such a fun player and is really the one Japanese player we brought over. It was always a fun story. I also went Santana over Gennett. Gennett was fun, but I remember Santana for his huge clutch hit to bring us a Game 163 win. Who knows how that entire postseason goes if we don’t win the division title.

Lets also not ignore the fact the Jets hired Hackett because of Rodgers. If they had a different QB I would doubt they would have gone out to get Hackett.
-
I feel like this might have been a bit more interesting had it been set up to mix former with current Brewers. The first two brackets include like two guys on the current team (Hiura/Houser). There are at least eight more guys on the current roster yet to come, I would imagine. Would have been interesting to see if recency bias could have created some upsets. The way this is set up, these two brackets are going to be quite predictable. The other ones maybe too, being so packed with current Brewers.
-
Pretty sure they would have already chased after Jackson if they had any interest.

Rodgers is already wildly rich. Not only that, but this dude could also find a job holding a mic for tens of millions anyway if he was hell bent on making money. He has talked about retirement. I think he would just go be a sidekick to Pat Mcafee on a podcast called 'hybusca' or whatever it is. Rodgers likes football and all, but it isn't his entire personality like it is to Brady. It doesn't matter though because the Jets know the Packers aren't going to hold out till Rodgers just retires. Could they? Sure, but we all know it isn't happening, so it really isn't much for leverage.

I’m always amazed people actually have this belief. Then again, some people really believe the world is flat…so anything is possible.Thankfully none of them work for NASA.
-
Yup and you benefit from doing that.
-
Mark Murphy's douchey comments days ago about the Rodgers situation make it seem like they honestly might ride this out pretty long to get something decent in return...maybe even to the point of forcing him to retire or come be Love's back-up. I doubt the later will happen...but I wouldn't put it at zero percent. End of the day I don't think they are willing to burn the bridge like what happened with Favre and deal with that. Rodger's is weird, but he doesn't steal money from the state, so he may be someone who comes back often post retirement etc.
-
Bringing him back was the correct and only answer. Might as well run it back another year. I will probably die (I am not that old) before we see a guy win the MVP two years in a row with deep playoff runs. The picks would have been better, but lets be honest, the future hinges on Love. If he isn't that good not much else is going to matter a ton.
-
Except there is actually competition. Unlike most people who are lucky to have two cable options. Also...still over half the cost of cable, without a contract. Inflation is alive and healthy. Prices go up. This may make FuboTV a more attractive option over trying to juggle YouTubeTV+Bally though.

Brent Suter an #8 is absolutely criminal. I bet he could have upset a #2 seed in the right bracket as a #7 seed.

He did say it was fake. He said he was asked about certain players, namely former Packers and he vouched for them. That would infer he wasn't the one that brought them up first. Is that true? I don't know, that is probably the one thing yesterday that may have been twisted a bit because I doubt the Jets are going to go call out their new QB. I don't know if Rodgers will be as demanding as he was the last few years in Green Bay. I think a lot of that was the reality of the Packers being desperate with a guy coming off MVP seasons so Rodgers knew they would do whatever he wanted and Rodgers trying to overcompensate for all the years the Packers ignored him. Maybe it satisfied Rodgers in the moment, but in the grand scheme he probably has hated to FO the entire time.
-
I don’t think Rodgers was trying blame the Packers. He was just explaining it isn’t waiting on the fake wishlist reports and he is just waiting to get traded. He was just saying he can’t go anywhere until his current employers ships him off. Watching the podcast he didn’t really seemed bothered. Just that the Packers have yet to iron out what they find as a worthy return.
-
I mean, yah...that is kind of a given.
-
I never understand this, is the cost of kids less than that of a tax credit/break? Very far from it...
-
I mean, his explanation of events was pretty simple and straight forward. Packers said they wanted him back right after season ended (makes sense as that is what they told the media). A few weeks later the tone seemed to change (which media reports also reported the same way) and the Packers wanted him gone. Rodgers says alright, well I want to play for the Jets then. He then claims the Packers are the ones holding it up at this point, which quite a few reports said before he went on the podcast. He claims this would have gone down years ago had he not had back to back MVP years, which I’m not sure anyone is really going to deny. They probably didn’t draft love expecting MVP seasons coming up nor wanted to wait till his 4th year for him to start. I suppose it is possible Rodgers made a bunch of crazy demands to stay and that is why the tone changed…not just to Packers taking time and realizing they wanted to move on. Nothing really points to that though.

The fact people care about whether Rodgers was vaccinated or the fact he used weird wording to deflect the question is pretty weird. I find it somewhat ironic people are going to whine about Rodgers still talking about the Packers drafting Love and so many are still stuck/offended by him saying the word ‘immunized’. I just care that he is good at football. When they drafted Love I thought he still had plenty in the tank. However, while I think he has a few good years left, I don’t think it will be consistent like most QB that make it to his age. So with that, I am fine with them moving on. Rodgers gets to go play for a team with a better defense than he has had 90% of his career and we can look to the future as we just can’t build a great team in the short term anymore. I guess we will see what Love is all about. Hopefully he is the answer, but if not, hopefully we can unload the bandwagon fans that have become absolutely embarrassing and insufferable over the years. That would be the one positive to a rebuild and down years.
-
I mean there is not much rush. If the highest pick we are getting is a third rounder I would just twiddle my thumbs and wait. Maybe if the offer is this year's 2nd I might get a little nervous...but past that, meh, I can't see rushing to do the Jets any favors.
-
You know, I used to feel bad for Jordan Love. I have now realized the dude has made millions and since he is in his 4th year, unless he looks absolutely atrocious, his second prove it year will be the massive $20mil 5th year option. Considering that, this is almost perfect timing if he ends up not be a relevant starter. EDIT: Actually, don't they have to pick that up before this year starts? So he will make $20mil next year before proving anything on the field.
-
Rodgers is just one of those player treatment defenders, much like Corbin Burnes whining about his arby hearing. They aren't necessarily logical competitive points.
-
What the Packer take Zach Wilson as a part of the trade.
-
If he wanted to do that, he would have done a much better job. This seems like a stretch.
-
Not to mention Rodgers has an MVP award 2/3 of the last three years. 2/3 of Favre's last three years before that trade he looked like garbage not worthy to even be a back-up.
