Maybe comparing apples and walnuts, but they've played Walker all season, through the expected rookie ups and downs. So why not Wyatt? It's not like this defense has accomplished much, so why not?

Wyatt has played 110 snaps in 11 games (he missed one). Maybe he sucks in practice I don't know but it's weird he hasn't got more burn.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

It sucks that Wyatt is so old for a rookie and not contributing, but interior players can take a year to adjust to the physicality of the NFL. Hopefully, that is the case with him.

John Hadl passed away. (He had about a season and a half with the Packers in the dark days of the mid-70s. By the time he got to GB, he was past his prime and on the tail end of a mighty fine career)

It's wild that we've all collectively gotten to the point with Rodgers where he could be a 9/11 truther and it's a shrug story. Like, yea, that tracks.

The stories about him that are going to come out five years from now will be absolutely crazy.

"Do you believe in 9/11?" Wow.
We need a reporter to jump on him. It's going to take a lot to get us out of paying him $59M next year, but he's nutso angle might be our best approach. No way someone's taking that contract though. Not as it's structured.

It's a good thing there's no chance his cap hit will be near $59 million next year. A team acquiring him will only likely have a cap hit of $15 million and $24 million in 2024.

Finding a trade partner is the least of the problems.

You don't get the math man. Pretty amazing you don't, maybe you went to Whitewater? :lol:

He's guaranteed $59M next year, and gets $110 M total over the next 2 years if he plays both. Isaiah Thomas isn't a GM in the NFL. Besides him, only Gute would be dumb enough to pay him this much money, regardless of how much the cap hit is deferred.

Here's someone that gets it. He doesn't layout the details of the math, but he understands exactly why Rodger's agent set up the contract the way he did.

His current contract was negotiated to give him the power to walk away without financial consequence after 2022 or 2023. It wasn’t written to make it easy for the Packers to choose to pull the plug on the relationship.
Although the contract is complicated, the simple reality is that Rodgers will be gone only if he wants to be. If he wants to stay, he’s staying. And he’ll be getting paid a lot of money, whether he’s playing or not.

My god, man. This again? What don't you understand about guaranteed money vs CAP HIT.

Why do you think there were multiple dead years added onto the end of the deal? That this was a contract through 2024 at the latest?

From ESPN, today, which is literally exactly what I've tried to explain to you for a month now:

Rodgers is scheduled to make about $59.5 million fully guaranteed in 2023. Of that, $58.3 million is in the form of a team option bonus. If the team declines the option, that $58.3 million becomes salary and the team gets hit with a roughly $75 million salary-cap charge for Rodgers in 2023. The Packers are not going to do that. If he's going to be on their 2023 team, they'll exercise the option and spread the cap hit out over several years. Their cap hit for Rodgers in 2023 would then be "just" $31.6 million.

Now here's where it gets really interesting. The deadline for picking up the option isn't until Week 1 of the 2023 regular season, which means the Packers can delay the formal exercising of the option all throughout the summer if they feel they might end up trading him or that he might retire.

If Rodgers retires, the Packers would take on a roughly $40 million cap hit in 2023, unless they waited until after June 1 to formally process the retirement, in which case the cap hit would be about $15.8 million in 2023 and about $24.5 million in 2024.

If the Packers decide to trade Rodgers, the acquiring team would take on the 2023 salary and option decision and a cap charge of $15.8 million if they picked up the option. Their dead-money cap hit would depend on when the trade took place. If the Packers trade him before June 1, they'd take on that roughly $40 million cap hit for 2023. If they trade him after June 1, the cap hits would be $15.8 million in 2023 and $24.5 million in 2024. That's why it makes sense to have the option deadline be so late -- to give everyone time to decide what to do. If you see the Packers pick up his option early in the offseason, that'll tell you they plan to have him on their 2023 roster. If not, they're leaving open the possibility that he won't be.

So you think a team is going to trade for Rodgers, pay him $110M for 2 years and then eat the cap hit after? No one is that dumb, it's not happening.

Right. So you don't know how the cap works, how much of the cap hit is money already paid out, or how much starting QBs earn in the NFL. You're hopeless and I'm done trying.

I never judge rookies in their first year, many/most take time to adjust to the NFL. But now that the season is winding down I'd like to know why Wyatt isn't seeing the field more. You can only get better by playing. He missed one game but in all the others here are his snap counts and percentage of snaps played:

12 - 19%
4 - 10%
7 - 11%
5 - 9%
7 - 13%
12 - 16%
10 - 17%
10 - 16%
14 - 17%
15 - 23%
20 - 25%
9 - 17%

It does look like his PT was ramping up until yesterday. He's had 125 snaps. T.J. Slaton has had 257. Clark has over 600. Maybe Wyatt loafs in practice, I don't know. I guess the easy thing is to blame Barry but he's played Quay plenty so he has no aversion to rookies.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
