Much cheaper and I heard that Rodgers last 9 games or so were rated up there with the best in the league.

We have also hired his old QB coach as ours has been promoted to another team iirc and I honestly think he could easily lay out playbook after being in Green bay.
Rodgers has praised McVay multiple times over the years too.

Yeah look it might be a good fit. 

It just seems like a lot of front office work haha.

    They also said yesterday that they could roll with Jimmy G if Stafford left.

    Reports out of the US is that Stafford has re-signed with the Rams,less than what the raiders and giants were offering.

    Said contract details won’t be released for a few weeks.

    The first 2025 off-season NFL trade: San Francisco has agreed to send standout wide receiver Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders in exchange for a fifth-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

     

    Like any trade agreed to now, it cannot be processed until the new league year begins Wednesday, March 12.

     

    Man I would have thought Deebo would have gone for a 2nd at minimum.

    True, but iirc the Jets will be paying him a big chunk to cut him.

    Oh, ok.  Take the money and retire!

    He's had a great career and was formerly box office.  4 MVP's is phenomenal

    If he'd had a decent coach then more SB appearances would have followed.  Still, 1 is better than none haha

    Gee the footy is full-on considering it's just a praccy match

    Tbh I think if the Jets didn’t cut him, he would stay and play, but they are going to so maybe it kills his desire to go through a whole new move, new playbook etc 

    One of the reasons we got Stafford back cheaper.

    I did too and I think it says a lot. Either they weren't happy with the shape he was in last season or really wanted him out of there. Or both, or something else.

    Love the guy but I do think a departure was necessary. Along with his fluctuating fitness, we were force feeding him the ball this season the production wasn't there. Maybe a change is what he needs.

    If I'm the Giants, I'd at least ask the question. They'll be trying to get the no.1 pick from the Titans and if they get it and draft a Cam Ward or whoever, they might want veteran QB for a year or two to mentor and usher them in. 

    After swinging for the fences with Stafford, I reckon they could have a good pitch to Rodgers. If he still wants to play they're in a position to offer something decent to move across the street. 

    But there's more..

    The Jets are reportedly shopping Devante Adams around and look desperate to get out from under that massive contract they took on from world champion bad deal makers the Raiders. They could bring him over as well to sweeten the deal for Aaron.

    It might still be a long shot but I'd entertain it over the usual suspects like Cousins, Darnold, Russell Wilson etc.

    Rumour was if Rodgers came to LA that Adams pretty much would too.

    Yep.

    The option is there if a team has the cap room and wants to entice him to go round again. He's probably gonna want a decent weapon or two.

    niners could take a cap hit of $31m for Deebo... ouch

    Dead money is nothing new for us. Did it with Dee Ford and still paying Armstad, not saying it's good but we tend to cut losses a lot. 

    Highlights what I said yesterday, he may have wanted out but the team must have really wanted it as well.

    Zack Baun re-signs with the Eagles for 3 years. If other D-liners Sweat and Williams get tied up then the Eagles should be thereabouts for the foreseeable future.

    Max Crosby now highest paid non QB in the league.

    Seahawks also release Tyler Lockett, WR FA class this off season is crazy.

    Yeah good day for tying D-lineman down.

    Almost the same as Deebo wanting to salary dump but also taking on some dead money. Wonder if the Raiders go for him?

    NFL Live said with Pete now at the raiders that Locket is a good chance to end up there.

    Me too, he's probably a good bloke but he grinds my gears.

    Not even having a soft spot for the Trojans can make me like him.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
