I mean pretty much the whole 2020 Packer draft class sucked. The 2021 class pretty much sucked. It's hard to say he's found much impact in the draft since Gary in 2019. So I don't think that Love is the only reason, and if it is - well, Gutekunst always had a lot of his reputation staked in Love, for better or worse. Many here have said that numerous times.
If you trade up in the 1st round to draft your future QB to replace Aaron Rodgers and he spends 3 years in the system and he does not work out for you, that is an enormous reflection on your GM. And I'm not saying he hasn't worked out yet, we still don't know, but if he doesn't? Absolutely, it's a massive hit to Gutekunst's reputation and could cost him his job. I don't think we can pretend otherwise.
