The fact that GB doesnt retain a penny of salary makes this a slam dunk....and changes the course of the next 2 years in a way they couldnt have imagined before the deal.

Instead, the Jets will inherit the remainder of his contract, which includes $59.465 million guaranteed in salary and bonus this season. Most of it is made up of a $58.3 million bonus that is due no later than Week 1 of this season

Moving up a couple spots and landing a 2nd and likely 1st next year is just the cherry on top for a guy that wasnt going to go to any other team.
Imma A-OK with this and thankful his act is now gone.
Gonna be a couple years of hurt going forward but they just expidited the "rebuild" as it were.
I have zero doubt Jordan Love is not the answer to the next great Packer QB, so im expecting that they will pick one in the mid rounds this year and probably be forced to take one high next year.
