If I'm the Packers, there's no way I'm taking Zach Wilson for Jordan Love without also demanding a ton in return, and if I'm the Jets, I think I have to accept that Zach Wilson is more valuable to them than he would be for basically any other team right now and I certainly don't want to send out multiple picks I'd probably spend on future QBOTFs for another guy who's unproven and might wilt behind the Jets' O line.

The whole entire point of going with Rodgers is to get off the cycle of burning through young QBs. Even if he's mediocre - and the Jets of course are hoping that he's a lot better than mediocre - he allows them to sit Wilson especially for a full season and watch a veteran operate (not that Rodgers is going to be any good at mentoring whatsoever). They already potentially ruined him by ignoring what everyone told him about him needing to sit for a year; they may as well do it now.

Post 22 pretty much spelled it all out. Wilson is barely tradable right now.

Packers are being mentioned in possible Rodgers trades with --- Jets -- Baltimore -- San Fran -- even to staying in Green Bay .

Value and Cap are major issues ..... The cap issue may even be better if Rodgers stays ...

Apparently the Packers want a 2nd round pick this year, and a first round pick in 2024. I think the Jets are somewhere around only wanting to give up a 2nd.

I don't know what's going through Rodger's head, but I assumed he wanted to play for the Jets. If so, he's going to have to use his leverage. Otherwise this is going to get dragged out if the Packers think they can shop him to other teams.
