His rating was slightly below Rodgers and slightly above Carr at 20th on the season...again spending draft capital (especially a 1st) plus $$ on 40 year old Rodgers would have been really dumb.
Personally I think they are drafting a QB and want a vet to help him along, a cheaper and equally good vet as Carr so they have money to spend elsewhere...they have done a lot of cap clearing lately.

From november probly not, that's 10% of the season
This is 40% of the way through the nfl season, so akin go nhl in january when it definitely gets talked about
But it's also not new for jimmy g, he hasnt thrown downfield much, nor been good at it, since his injury about 5 years ago
I have no desire to watch a dink and dunk offense, not how you win in the nfl with how much passing game has exploded the last few years. Especially when jimmy is going from an absolutely loaded team to one that isnt
From an elite offensive schemer in shanahan to mcdanials who hasnt shown he is even average outside of new england
Carrs rating last year was not what his ability, like someone else said, carrs ability to make changes at the line was taken away last year, its arguably his best trait as a qb reading the defense.
Where is this 1st for rodgers coming from? I wouldnt pay that either but I dont think the trade will be anywhere near that, packers have zero leverage
The money doesnt matter, caps gonna sky rocket when new tv deal kicks in next year
But if you want to make the argument they wanted a vet qb while they draft one, they still overpaid jimmy, when guys like brissett who played better last year are signing for cheap.
Next year is a much better qb class anyway, just hoping now Jimmy is bad enough that we only win a few games and can get caleb williams or maybe even drake maye, rather than win 6 or 7 and are too far back, cause playoffs are absolutely not happening
