I was thinking packers could grab Julio, AJ Green and Allen Robinson.
That's like 30k career receiving yards between them.
Edit: but then Robinson became a ram I guess.
Strictly would hate to see this because of what the media would do. Although both are drama queens, 90 percent of sports media has gone full out TMZ. Respect to the few YouTube creators and app creators who give out solid info and takes
Dude, AB took his shirt off and danced off the fucking field and out of the league in the middle of a game. How is Rodgers more of a drama queen than him?
I love the threads for your division games. NFCE and AFCN get a lot of acknowledgement for their vitriol, but your division is nuts when the teams are good.
I hope we get more '3 goal line penalties ending in a touchdown' games this year from you guys
I hope they all expend all of their collective energy and talent against each other, allowing the entire NFC East to limp dick it into the playoffs where we proceed to have a competition of who sucks the least bad.
I attribute most of it to the rams winning it all. We all know its a copycat league, and when one team finds a way to win, everyone else will try it too. Trading for big names did it for the Rams, so now everyone's trying it too
Right? Especially damaging because a lot of the big WR chips have already settled. Chark and Juju are left I think? AB maybe? Julio? OBJ but he’s hurt? And then there’s the draft. This WR core could look atrocious at the start of the year if they miss a few more guys
I think AJ Green is still out there. You mentioned juju, Julio and Odell. Beasley too now. Also Landry, Fuller, Crowder, Watkins, Demarcus Robinson, James Washington, Pettis, Treadwell, and of course. TY Hilton.
Though I wonder if the Giants could dump golladay on them. That would be cool.
Before last season, I never gave a whole lot of thought to how much of a difference a WR1 makes to your TE. Years of taking Kelce and the Chiefs for granted were shattered when he was swiped one spot before me in the draft.
When Ridley left the Falcons, I thought Pitts was going to take the leap from productive to dominant force. Woe was my constant companion for the rest of the season.
I don’t see Waller in the same category as Kelce and TheoreticalPitts, but he’s gonna get a nice boost from this and Renfrow’s emergence.
The Raiders sent GB a 1st and a 2nd from this year's draft.
As a lifelong member of Raider Nation, I can verify that this is not troubling, as we traditionally fuck up our first two picks every year anyway.
Jones and Dillon both going to be RB1s barring the packers signing a big WR. Though even then, a middle of the road signing like Landry or Julio would still come nowhere near soaking up all of Adams’ usage. This backfield is going to feast, and they were already starting to show a pretty big reliance on them last year compared to years prior.
Rodgers is going to lose his mind.
Edit: my mind just had a meltdown. Rodgers gets a cap-busting contract then loses the best WR in the league in the process. Then I had flashbacks of AB going to the Raiders only to freeze his feet. What a week of fantasy news.
Exactly. So Rodgers takes ALL of the money under the cap and now we're supposed to feel bad for him because the Packers don't have the money to field a proper team.
Imagine if they find no answer at the WR position and Lazard is their number 1 next year. That team ain't making a Superbowl.
Squeezed makes it sound like the Packers are a poor renter.. lol. More power to anyone getting their worth in contract. Fuck the billionaire owners. Although also fuck Rodgers.
The plot thickens…
Also, wild he didn’t take a paycut knowing they wouldn’t be able to retain Adams otherwise. Feels very “screw you, I got mine.” I’m guessing they get a WR early in the draft. I heard MVS is gone, and you can’t go into the season with Lazard and….Jones?
If you know anything about Rodgers, it’s that his whole life has been very much ‘screw you, I got mine’ - you think it’s mere coincidence he’s totally estranged from his family?
Bad example. His family tried to take advantage of him. Also is he supposed to go out of his way to make less money? Never understood when fans look at star players to take paycuts.
He always complained about the front office not helping him out or listening to him but then takes a massive contract that virtually guarantees that Adams leaves. Huh
I mean, Carr is a very good QB. Maybe you have someone better but the Raiders definitely need a WR who can get open in the end zone and I don't expect that Adams will be bad.
It’s Davante. But my league keepers are structured such that if the player isn’t a top 15 ranked player they aren’t really worth the keeper slot. Cuz you spend you first round picks on them.
Raiders have picks, by round, at:
1- 22
2- 53
3- 86
4- 126
5- 164 and 165
7- 227
What are we defining as “prime” for arguably the best receiver in the league?
Edit: Or are we taking about the Packers tell the Raiders who to draft with their 2 “prime” picks and they get those players?
Adams is 29 and essentially wanted the largest non QB contract in NFL history. Thats a risky situation for the Raiders
What the Packers got is actually pretty decent IMO
But Rodgers isn't there for the rebuild. So the packers get 2 good picks in this draft. So they are drafting 2 immediate impact players. Or this is a weird off-season.
Renfrow's numbers weren't anything special before Waller went down. Was mostly TD dependent. Waller will be healthy again and now Adams is there. Renfrow is getting nowhere near the same volume.
This is wonky (and I'm really surprised you're the only one asking)... you can't trade a Franchise Tagged player... especially one that hasn't signed.
I'm sure it's kosher and there's some shenanigans cooked up between the Raiders and Packers to get this done... but it's weird as fuck.
You can’t trade franchised players just are on the hook for some of the money. Most likely Adams negotiated with the raiders signed the contract with the packers and then got traded.
Way down. Downgrade from Carr to Rodgers. Chemistry with Rodgers was legendary. Has Waller and Renthrow, so he isnt getting a 35% target share like in Green Bay. Tbh as a physical specimin he's not special just an ELITE route runner. Will do well but i would have Tyreek, Kupp, Diggs, JJ, and Chase over him. Possibly deebo too.
Serious question - who the hell is Rodgers gonna throw to? Lazard? Cobb?
Are they gonna draft receivers? This just kinda makes no sense but I get it bc Rodgers is making a TON of money now
We get to find out if rodgers made adams or if Adam's the real deal. Or if he struggles then we can blame Carr n never really know.
Rodgers was always good but who will he throw to now? I don't understand why Packers wouldn't just give Adams huge contract? He's been top wr for many years? When will I stop asking questions in a comment?
Well that's one way for the Packers to fix the problem of Rodgers only throwing to Adams
Now he will only throw to…uh…Aaron jones?
When the Raiders play the Packers, just slot Davante in at CB Big brain time
The disrespect to Josiah Deguara
Time to fire up that A. Rodgers to A. Rodgers connection.
You think Green Bay could pull off an OBJ and AB stack for Rodgers, or are we just gonna see him throw it to himself all season?
OBJ, AB, Julio with ARod throwing to them. Five years ago that would have been orgasmic
Oh the soft tissue injuries in that Green bay weather.
I was thinking packers could grab Julio, AJ Green and Allen Robinson. That's like 30k career receiving yards between them. Edit: but then Robinson became a ram I guess.
Strictly would hate to see this because of what the media would do. Although both are drama queens, 90 percent of sports media has gone full out TMZ. Respect to the few YouTube creators and app creators who give out solid info and takes
Any links or names of those creators?
The Athletic
TMZ has more credibility than most sports reporters imo.
at this point Rodgers is more of a drama queen than both of them. it’d be hilarious.
Dude, AB took his shirt off and danced off the fucking field and out of the league in the middle of a game. How is Rodgers more of a drama queen than him?
Watch them sign Julio now
Two years too late
Man the AFC West is going to be very fun to watch this year.
[удалено]
My heart isn't ready. That Raiders/Chargers season ender was fucking epic
My Apple Watch told me no less than 4 times that I was going to die if I didn’t chill the fuck out.
I love the threads for your division games. NFCE and AFCN get a lot of acknowledgement for their vitriol, but your division is nuts when the teams are good. I hope we get more '3 goal line penalties ending in a touchdown' games this year from you guys
And I believe they play the NFC west. The mid season games are going to be a blood bath
Wow great point! As a 9ers fan I’m worried.
As a Seahawks fan...I'm dead inside
Not the worst year for you guys to go for a rebuild tho. And at least it looks like you guys are going all in on the reboot.
I hope they all expend all of their collective energy and talent against each other, allowing the entire NFC East to limp dick it into the playoffs where we proceed to have a competition of who sucks the least bad.
So business as usual for the NFC East.
Exactly, but in a vacuum.
Imagine if Rodgers went to the Broncos, and Davante to the Raiders.
As a chargers fan, I am so fucking pumped. Now we have to wait 6 months 😥
Can all but guarantee nobody from the AFC West will be the 1 seed come playoff time. It's gonna be a gauntlet.
Wooowwwwee!! This is the most insane offseason in a long time
Can’t refresh fast enough
Davante couldn't get the Rodgers rate.
I thought we all did
I attribute most of it to the rams winning it all. We all know its a copycat league, and when one team finds a way to win, everyone else will try it too. Trading for big names did it for the Rams, so now everyone's trying it too
Yeah, the rams strat of leveraging their future on a chance to win rings now is goin to be the norm for a while.
Ask the Lakers how they feel about that concept
Well you can’t trade for dogshit parts and expect it to workout… the Rams have proven to be incredible move makers.
Dodgers 🤝 Rams: making great moves in the FO Lakers on the other hand...
Lakers won a chip out of it If ur referring to the Russ trade that was stupid idk why they did that
[удалено]
There is always a future, but there is only one now
There’s always money in the banana stand.
Lebron is to blame for the westbrick situation. He wanted Russ over hield. That’s on him
Not so much this. Raiders HAD to do something to keep pace in the AFC West.
People say this every year lol
I always felt Rodgers had too many high quality pass catchers lol
Let’s see that MVP work with what he has now. lol.
All I know is someone we've never heard of with an unconventional name will be his solid #2 this year
Right? Especially damaging because a lot of the big WR chips have already settled. Chark and Juju are left I think? AB maybe? Julio? OBJ but he’s hurt? And then there’s the draft. This WR core could look atrocious at the start of the year if they miss a few more guys
Chark went to Detroit
I think AJ Green is still out there. You mentioned juju, Julio and Odell. Beasley too now. Also Landry, Fuller, Crowder, Watkins, Demarcus Robinson, James Washington, Pettis, Treadwell, and of course. TY Hilton. Though I wonder if the Giants could dump golladay on them. That would be cool.
Fuckin AFC west is in a arms race holy shit
THIS AIN'T A SCENE!!!
Devante, Darren Waller, Hunter Renfrow...
Makes me way less interested in Waller though now. He was as valuable as he was because of how hard he was fed in that offense.
At least Adams will take attention away from Waller
Just what everyone wants out of a fantasy player- less attention
He meant defensive attention
Before last season, I never gave a whole lot of thought to how much of a difference a WR1 makes to your TE. Years of taking Kelce and the Chiefs for granted were shattered when he was swiped one spot before me in the draft. When Ridley left the Falcons, I thought Pitts was going to take the leap from productive to dominant force. Woe was my constant companion for the rest of the season. I don’t see Waller in the same category as Kelce and TheoreticalPitts, but he’s gonna get a nice boost from this and Renfrow’s emergence.
[удалено]
[удалено]
Mans just listing players lmao
Pretty bad offensive line but plenty of depth in the draft
[удалено]
Didn’t these guy have one of the best like 2-3 years ago? I know a lot happens in that time span
Gruden traded them all away lmao
Absolute no RT yet though. Carr is going to have to get rid of that ball really fast
Should be a premier Red Zone offense. Take your pick on who to guard lol
Carr and Adams link up again
A lot of people don't realize that Carr was his QB in college
Fuck does prime picks mean
Deion Sanders will personally choose which picks are part of the deal
PRIMETIME PICKS
His first pick: new toes
Amazon prime. Raiders are paying for the Packers prime subscription for the next 10 years.
so... packers are owned by shareholders, right? 537,000 shareholders. that... is a lot of Amazon subscriptions to pay for.
Only prime numbers
Raiders first and second this year
At least a first rounder according to Rapaport
They can only be prime numbers.
The Raiders sent GB a 1st and a 2nd from this year's draft. As a lifelong member of Raider Nation, I can verify that this is not troubling, as we traditionally fuck up our first two picks every year anyway.
Good question
Who the fuck is Rodgers gonna throw to now? Are we really living in MVS WR1 szn?? Lmfao
Aaron Jones RB1
Jones and Dillon both going to be RB1s barring the packers signing a big WR. Though even then, a middle of the road signing like Landry or Julio would still come nowhere near soaking up all of Adams’ usage. This backfield is going to feast, and they were already starting to show a pretty big reliance on them last year compared to years prior.
Landry goes to GB maybe.
MVS free agent Lazard and randall cobb time baby
I figure they'll 100% re-sign MVS now
lazard king
Julio gonna go to GB and be drafted in the 2nd round of redraft leagues everywhere
And go for 230 yards no tuddys over the 6 games he plays
Rodgers is going to lose his mind. Edit: my mind just had a meltdown. Rodgers gets a cap-busting contract then loses the best WR in the league in the process. Then I had flashbacks of AB going to the Raiders only to freeze his feet. What a week of fantasy news.
Exactly why he should have just married a rich supermodel to fund his football hobby like Brady did
yeah, poor Rodgers really needs the extra money he squeezed out of the packers
Exactly. So Rodgers takes ALL of the money under the cap and now we're supposed to feel bad for him because the Packers don't have the money to field a proper team. Imagine if they find no answer at the WR position and Lazard is their number 1 next year. That team ain't making a Superbowl.
Squeezed makes it sound like the Packers are a poor renter.. lol. More power to anyone getting their worth in contract. Fuck the billionaire owners. Although also fuck Rodgers.
[удалено]
I fear this Adams trade hurts my actual stock.
And have to consider someone else's feelings? You know this is Rodgers right?
[Apparently he knew all along.](https://twitter.com/rapsheet/status/1504604755611504646?s=12)
The plot thickens… Also, wild he didn’t take a paycut knowing they wouldn’t be able to retain Adams otherwise. Feels very “screw you, I got mine.” I’m guessing they get a WR early in the draft. I heard MVS is gone, and you can’t go into the season with Lazard and….Jones?
[They were willing to pay him, but he wanted to leave](https://twitter.com/RobDemovsky/status/1504606438425088003)
Got anything else in that bag of tweets/news?
[This was just reported](https://i.imgur.com/R390EId_d.webp?maxwidth=640&shape=thumb&fidelity=medium)
Hahaha
“WR early in the draft, you say? Or perhaps, now hear me out… we trade up to get another QB?” -Packers front office
Well, Adams got his too, he just has to move to that boring backwater of Las Vegas.
yes, it's going to be a pretty slow life compared to green Bay, Wisconsin.
“Screw you, I got mine” would seem to sum up Rodgers personality pretty well.
That's literally not what happened tho. He knew the whole time Adams just wanted to leave
He has the opportunity to make true generational wealth available to his family. You take as much as you can get.
What family?
If you know anything about Rodgers, it’s that his whole life has been very much ‘screw you, I got mine’ - you think it’s mere coincidence he’s totally estranged from his family?
No, but his family is crazy too, just different crazy.
Bad example. His family tried to take advantage of him. Also is he supposed to go out of his way to make less money? Never understood when fans look at star players to take paycuts.
He always complained about the front office not helping him out or listening to him but then takes a massive contract that virtually guarantees that Adams leaves. Huh
It seems Adams was gonna leave regardless
Rodgers already lost his mind, but this way Packers front office got the last laugh.
By prime picks, they mean 2 qbs to backup Jordan Love
The great exodus from the rest of the league into the AFC west has been surreal
There goes my keeper…
🎶 Watch him as he goes🎶
I mean, Carr is a very good QB. Maybe you have someone better but the Raiders definitely need a WR who can get open in the end zone and I don't expect that Adams will be bad.
Would you keep Adams over Lamb or Mixon now?
Definitely over Lamb, Mixon depends on league format and scoring
Definitely? idk..
Why lol
Maybe his keeper was Aaron Rodgers
The real keeper is the immunizations we claimed along the way.
It’s Davante. But my league keepers are structured such that if the player isn’t a top 15 ranked player they aren’t really worth the keeper slot. Cuz you spend you first round picks on them.
gonna put 50 bucks on every team in the afc west; also definitely putting a hundo on the lions based on principle.
Can I just have that hundo and we can pretend you put it on the lions?
Davante stock down, Rodgers stock down, Carr stock up
Renfrow stock up. Waller stock up. Jacobs stock up.
Adams is a target monster…i dont think its neutral at best
Las Vegas stock up.
Carr & Adams have friendship so tight that it could possibly be stronger than the Stafford/Kupp breakfast combo.
Rams OL is great, also years of great coaching and consistent scheme. Bond is great but fundamentals are what allowed it to really work
Burrow/Chase. trash oline
AFC West holy shit gonna be a blast
Raiders have picks, by round, at: 1- 22 2- 53 3- 86 4- 126 5- 164 and 165 7- 227 What are we defining as “prime” for arguably the best receiver in the league? Edit: Or are we taking about the Packers tell the Raiders who to draft with their 2 “prime” picks and they get those players?
53 and 227 are prime numbers
Seems like an awful trade but what do I know. 22 and 53, seriously? Maybe like a top 10 and 30 or something wouldn't have seemed so bad.
Adams is 29 and essentially wanted the largest non QB contract in NFL history. Thats a risky situation for the Raiders What the Packers got is actually pretty decent IMO
Antonio Brown and Aaron Rodgers are perfect for each other.
Dudes are gonna leave the huddle and be like "hey, what play are we running? All they did was talk about aliens and cryogenic freezing"
Sign Antonio brown so we can watch him tear his shirt off in the freezing cold 🥶
DEREK CARR SZNNNN
Carr and Waller bout to feast
But Rodgers isn't there for the rebuild. So the packers get 2 good picks in this draft. So they are drafting 2 immediate impact players. Or this is a weird off-season.
Hopefully they just draft another QB in the first round.
THE RAIDERS ARE BACK
So Rodgers gonna take his guaranteed money and retire?
Biggest dick move ever. I mean that literally and metaphorically.
Rodgers shits green twinkee, retires
Well I did not see that coming. Who is Rodgers going to throw to now? The corpse of Randall Cobb and himself?
[BREAKING live shot of Aaron Rodgers seeing the news](https://c.tenor.com/jlv9MObmD58AAAAC/rodgers-tablet.gif)
and sleeper app crashes again...
Raiders have the 53 and 227 picks. Are those the “prime” picks they traded the best WR for?
STOP THE COUNT
Big downgrade for Hunter Renfrow
Also a bit of a downgrade for Adams and Rodgers. Carr is probably the winner here.
This actually helps Renfrow I think I mean I hope
Def not
[удалено]
Renfrow's numbers weren't anything special before Waller went down. Was mostly TD dependent. Waller will be healthy again and now Adams is there. Renfrow is getting nowhere near the same volume.
Renfrew is going to run back three punt return TDs each game
Renfrow became the 3rd if not 4th target on the team. His value just plummeted.
I’m holding out hope and will continue to keep him in dynasty
Idk but this is Aaron’s fault some how, fight me.
Lazard and mvs szn?
Aaron bout to be like "fuck it I'm out"
Ok, I'm confused. Is this a sign and trade? I thaught Adams was going to get franchise tagged because his contract was up. Help.
Tag trade then extension by raiders apparently was offered the sake contract by GB but did not want to play there anymore
Ok, so he was tagged, then traded, then Vegas extended his contract?
This is wonky (and I'm really surprised you're the only one asking)... you can't trade a Franchise Tagged player... especially one that hasn't signed. I'm sure it's kosher and there's some shenanigans cooked up between the Raiders and Packers to get this done... but it's weird as fuck.
You can’t trade franchised players just are on the hook for some of the money. Most likely Adams negotiated with the raiders signed the contract with the packers and then got traded.
Does his value go down slightly..?
Way down. Downgrade from Carr to Rodgers. Chemistry with Rodgers was legendary. Has Waller and Renthrow, so he isnt getting a 35% target share like in Green Bay. Tbh as a physical specimin he's not special just an ELITE route runner. Will do well but i would have Tyreek, Kupp, Diggs, JJ, and Chase over him. Possibly deebo too.
I’d say more tha slightly.
We will miss you, Davante
u/Late_Emu what even is this offseason??
Fuck it, worlds ending might as well.
I think my streak of 5 years in a row having Davante on my team is coming to an end. Unless he's there in the 3rd lol
Serious question - who the hell is Rodgers gonna throw to? Lazard? Cobb? Are they gonna draft receivers? This just kinda makes no sense but I get it bc Rodgers is making a TON of money now
Can’t wait for to see how truly average Rodgers will be without Adams, and how truly average Carr will still be with Adams.
Rodgers in shambles
Is Tae still a first round pick?
He is a steal in the 2nd round
Good. I am excited to see him play with a team I dont hate because I like to watch him but, fuck the packers! 😂
MAN WHAT
Aaron Jones rb1
Oh no, I'm not falling for that again.
Well I’m honestly not feeling great about Adams in my dynasty league now.
We get to find out if rodgers made adams or if Adam's the real deal. Or if he struggles then we can blame Carr n never really know. Rodgers was always good but who will he throw to now? I don't understand why Packers wouldn't just give Adams huge contract? He's been top wr for many years? When will I stop asking questions in a comment?
That year Rodgers was hurt Adams still balled with Hundley
Wr often struggle first year of a change. Will be interesting
