You had a lot of questions. And we had a lot to get to after a wild couple of days coming off the NFL combine …
From Robert Dalton (@RobertDalton02): What would a Jets package for Aaron Rodgers look like?
Robert, let’s say this year’s second-rounder (43rd) and a conditional 2025 pick that’ll ride on how well Rodgers plays, and whether he plays in ’24.

As much as the mass-collusion argument by owners to not pay the 26-year-old QB a fully guaranteed deal makes sense, there are other arguments that make even more sense.
As a group, NFL owners deserve every bit of skepticism they receive. They have earned it. If you have a theory that they have conspired to inflate egg prices, then I want to hear it!

I’m sorry. I really tried, I promise.
The argument sounds good.

NFL owners have shown throughout time that the only color that matters is green. If a black quarterback, coach or GM can win games, that’s all that matters. Lamar Jackson is not a victim of NFL racism.
