If the Titans don't grab a QB at the top of the draft then they could take a look at obtaining Rodgers. I don't think Will (mayo man) Levi's is the answer so maybe the get Rodgers and look for a QB in next years.draft. Even with Rodgers they may not still win a lot of games and should have a fairly high draft pick in 2026. Alas though we.may not know what Rodgers.wants  and ultimately he just.hangs his cleats up and retires. Just hope whatever happens it's not another long drawn out saga waiting.on his decision. He stills wants the limelight.

[TBayXXXVII 2,480]

The Saints are $51M over the cap, they're going to need to be creative one more season with their current players as they have 3 guys (Lattimore, Thomas, & Winston), making up about $48M of that number in dead cap space this season. That should give them more flexibility next year, but not this coming year.  Picking 9th doesn't give them a good chance at drafting a top QB prospect in this year's draft.  Their cap situation and Carr's contract does not make going after a FA like Darnold who might command a Baker Mayfield type contract,... spotrac.com is saying his market value is on par with what Daniel Jones got (4/$160M), seem very likely.

Rodgers isn't getting a big pay day.  If he signs somewhere, I think it's one of those  1 yr/$10M chance to compete for the starting job, type of deals.  For that reason, I think he signs with the Saints.  If Rodgers wins the job, then Carr is gone after the season and there's no dead cap hit for 2026.

If this doesn't fit within Rodgers' ego, then my guess is that he'll wait to see if a contender loses their starter.

The Steelers could be an option as well, if they don't want to pay Wilson.  Though, I think the Steelers might be more inclined to go after Darnold.  If they think he's worth a multi-year deal, then 28 year old Sam Darnold is a better investment than 37 year old Russell Wilson.

 

The Colts could see if he's willing to back up Richardson.  That's not a bad idea for Rodgers.  Richardson is going to get hurt and/or play like crap at some point.  If that team can win 8 games with their QB carrousel last year, 11+ wins is possible with Rodgers if Rodgers plays like he did before the injury.

Raiders?

I'm sure someone will sign him, but not sure why...

I read an article suggesting Tennessee was the place hed land.  though I dont think that article was from a good source.  but even a blind squirrel will sometimes find a nut.  Tennessee does need a QB but I dont think they have a chance to win with the addition of Rodgers.  so might as well continue with the rebuild. (in my opinion)

I could see that if they traded out of the #1 spot.  That would tell me that they don't believe in any of these QB's long term and are willing to give Levis 1 more year and Rodgers to back him up or just beat him out in the preseason.  If Levis wins the job and stinks again, they'll probably end up in the top 5 next year, plus have someone else's 1st to move up if necessary.

I agree, Rodgers might be good for butts in seats, but not for the near future of the team.  

[JagFan 149]

He should hang it up, but I think he’s too arrogant and selfish.  I’m good either way…I’d actually love to see him melt down yet again for a third team.

If the Titans sign Rodgers and keep Levis as his backup, they can call this QB duo the "Acid Washed Levis".

[GobbleDog 976]

Clicked thinking... I wonder who he signed with. Obviously noone.

Now that I think about it - what team would sign him?  Certainly no good team. And Rodgers won't play for a bottom dweller... so somewhere in the middle who needs a QB.  Looking through the teams...  Seahawks or maybe Rams if they don't resign Stafford.?. Look like possible candidates.

[DocNiner 67]

I know there is a lot of fake stuff on Facebook but I recently saw this this morning. Apparently Rodgers has expressed a strong desire to join the San Francisco 49ers. Geez, the saga continues. In Rodgers defense he has publicly stated he would have loved to be the 49ers QB as he was set to enter the draft. Back then I would have loved that as well. That year we had the #1 pick and the 49ers brass went back and forth on taking Rodgets or Alex Smith. We know how that turned out when the 9ers selected Alex Smith. Rodgers is a southern Cal boy, played college in Southern Cal . I wish the 49ers had drafted Roger's instead of Smith.

   Yet at this point I think there's zero chance he goes to the 49ers. He wants to be the starter and they are NOT going to jeopardize the development of Brock Purdy. So all this bru-haha that Rodgers has been instigating is just another ploy of his to try and hold the NFL hostage. Move on Aaron, we're all over your adolescent  behavior.

Hey, I dont think there is a whole lot more development for purdy.  hes going into his 4th year as a pro.

I think if the 49 ers bring in Rodgers, they NEED to dump Purdy.   I dont think there is any question about that.

and are you gonna dump Purdy for an aging vet who might give you one good year (two at most)

I think not.   but I have seen an awful lot of strange things happen, so I wont completely rule it out but I dont see this happening unless Shanny thinks Purdy isnt the QB of the future.  (which leads me to say they absolutely NEED to trade Purdy if they sign Rodgers.)

When I seen this on Facebook it was.speculated that the Steelers would give up their.1st round pick in exchange for Purdy and send Rodgers to the 49ers. Heck the Steelers haven't even signed Rodgers a d O think it'd be a bad.move for the 49ers with gettjng.Rodgers and pick #21. Don't like that scenario at all. Yes Purdy has developed but he'll go into the season with a bunch of previous players gone so I guess we'll see what he's made of then. Not sure if Aiyuk will be ready but they need.him badly. Hopefully CMC can stay healthy but that's a shaky situation. I do look for Ricky Pearsall to make a big leap this year. If we.can stay.healthy we can make some noise even without Rodgers and his traveling circus.

my fear with purdy, is that he can perform in a Shanny system but not anywhere else.    He was drafted because he suited the system moreso than for his talent (though it turns out he was more talented than what people generally saw in the pre draft scouting reports)

of course, I could be wrong there.

but I can see where this type of deal would work.   Steelers sign Rodgers, retain a certain amount of salary in sending him to San Fran and get Purdy in return (presumably at a cheaper price than theyd normally pay as I cant see this as a straight across trade)

Normally I would say that this deal could work but the problem I have with it is what to do with the 21st pick in the first round. Surely Ward is gone and likely that Shedeur Sanders is gone before pick 21. We'd have to have a plan in place in case Rodgers gets injured or completely falls flat on his face in terms of production. If we could take that 21st pick and move up some to take Jaxson Dart as I feel he could easily be gone by pick 21. Then there's still the chance that Rodgers plays better than average and gets then49ers into the playoffs. Yes he still has talent and 4 MVPs to his resume but he is 41 so I wonder if the talent he has left in the tank is worth risking just so he can play on the team he wanted to go to when he was drafted. In the end I would say NO to any deal for Rodgers and continue to roll with Purdy. If he fits Shanny's system then why not go with the guy you know can play. He did get himself to a superbowl so I'm pretty sure he's mega hungry and still has a sizeable Chipotle his shoulder to prove people wrong.

They’d be better off signing Teddy Bridgewater if they trade Purdy.  He’d win you as many games a Rodgers at this point, and less likely to get your coach fired before crying his way off yet another team.

I agree.

if you dont have a QB, Rodgers is a nice gamble.

if you do have a QB who is at least decent...... I'm not sure its worth the risk for a 41 year old QB who may or may not still be able to play.

Yes, if the Steelers were able to sign Rodgers and put together a package to get Purdy I think they'd jump at the chance to get him. I just hope it doesn't happen as.I'm fine with Purdy being our QB now and in the future. There have been other QBs to win a superbowl who I consider not as talented as Purdy but it takes more than a QB to win a title. It takes a whole yeam both offensively and defensively. If the 49ers put competent people around Purdy on offense and Saleh can help the defense then I surely think Purdy will win a superbowl.

I think purdy doesnt do as well in Pittsburgh.    he had some very good WR, a top notch coach, and a great offense as a whole.

Pittsburgh just doesnt have all of those things.   and when things are missing from that combo a player like purdy could have his faults more exposed than before.

I think in Pittsburgh he is meh.   a little better than Wilson was but not as good as he was in San fran overall.     the last year with CMC hurt and WR in and out of the lineup may be a better indicator of what he does in pittsburgh.   he wont be quite that bad, but That is likely more in the ballpark of the kind of numbers he would put up in Pittsburgh.

[weepaws 3,149]

Pittsburgh has some good WRs imo.  They do not have a CMC. But I think Purdy would be a good fit imo.

Nope, and yes Mr. Rodgers needs to go back to the neighborhood.and be a good neighbor,LOL. Even though he's 4 time MVP.at.his current state of production he's not even close to Purdy. Plus Purdy doesn't bring a childish attitude to the table. Yes I get he's a 4 time MVP and that should come with some respect but he's a far cry.from those MVP days. He's an egotistical and narcissistic individual who thinks his own crap doesn't stink. Yet he's loving every.minute of the aggravation he's causes for teams and the media. This is his final attempt at trying to be relevant and.when all is said and done he knows he's just going to go on and retire. Teams are tired of kissing his backside to get a player that will not win them a superbowl. So I say the Rodgers era/drama is over and now we're just waiting for him to get one more chance in front of the camera to announce his retirement. ADIOS Mr. Rodgers, enjoy putting on your button down sweater, putting your slippets on and singing 'Won't you be my neighbor'..

One of those is Aaron Rodgers, the other is Brock Purdy (note, I rounded off some numbers).  Also, this is last season.

 

 

If the conversation is, if the Steelers sign Rodgers and want to make a deal for Purdy, then I think the Niners should listen.  McCaffrey isn't getting younger, and he's always hurt.  Aiyuk isn't going to be healthy after tearing his ACL and they already traded Deebo.  Jennings, whom they're probably not all that high on, only has this year left on his deal as does George Kittle.  I think the wise move for the Niners is to sell, sell, sell.  I'd trade anyone and everyone who can get me draft picks and rebuild the offense.  I think Purdy is "fine", but to pay "fine" $30M+ AAV with limited weapons isn't going to help this team.  Save money and invest it in other positions, use Rodgers as a short term mentor and take a QB at #11.

That's all well and good so.I have to say I agree with you to a point. Purdy has established himself in San Fran. In his defense one season he rips his elbow apart in the NFC title game. He then went to a superbowl but the team just couldn't get over the hump. 2024 was a disastrous season for the Niners health wise. People.eill.say he's not that good simply because he was the last pick in the draft. Given all that along with all our injuries I'd say he's played pretty well. He has been worthy of a top 12 QB and his numbers shoe it. If we trade him.and get Rodgets I don't believe Aarkn is capable of winning the SB this year. Even if we would get an extra 1st rounder I'm not so sure there's a good enough QB to be had outside of Cam Ward.  I don't think Sanders is the answer and U'd probably rather have Jaxson Dart but there again he's an unknown commodity to this point. Purdy IS capable of winning a superbowl but they need to put pieces around him given the exodus of multiple players of the 9ers this offseason. I'd rather they pay him and then take the best O-lineman at pick #11. 

      I don't think winning the SB this year is out of the question but it's not likely to happen this year IMO. I trust that Lynch and company can make good draft picks and get this team back to being relevant again. If they draft well then I could certainly see a Lkmbardi trophy in the  next 3 years and Purdy will be in his prime. Yes listen to the Steelers, if they sign Rodgers, but for God's sake let somebody else deal with his drama.

yeah rodgers is the one with more TD.    I keep telling people his season wasnt THAT bad other than the yardage.   and honestly I expected the first couple games hed be a bit rusty.   tack on a couple hundred yards to account for that.    are we having the same conversation if he has 4100 yards along with 28 TD and 11 INT?   maybe.  but maybe not.  Jets lost a lot of one score games.  that might have made their win loss record almost palatable.

 

and keep in mind Rodgers didnt have the weapons purdy had.   and one of his weapons arrived mid season.    it is a  tough thing for a WR to change offenses in mid season

another drag on the offense to some extent.

personally, with numbers like what Rodgers had, the team should have been a .500 team.   who really let them down was the defense.  I thought the D was gonna be top 5 and they were nowhere close.

to that end, I can see why the rumour is there.   but the reality is that Rodgers is still on the wrong side of the age 40.   If you are San Fran the only reason you entertain this is if you truly think Purdy is not the QB of the future.    and you cannot have Purdy stay if you bring in Rodgers.   that would invite a QB controversy.  you need to let him go if you sign Rodgers.   but I suspect this is all speculation on a move that wont happen.    But Shanny does see things many of us dont.   so I wouldnt say its a lock not to happen.   but I think its more likely he brings in a retread first round QB who didnt cut it and tries to rehab him.    or if any of the top prospects at QB drop into round 2 maybe he takes one of them.

but I'd be surprised if this ends up being the move.
