Aaron Rodgers Trade from Packers to Seahawks? Cowherd ‘Best Take Ever!’

Aaron Rodgers seems to be operating out of gasoline after his legendary run with the Inexperienced Bay Packers, however no less than one observer apparently thinks he is value $60 million to play QB in 2023 … and that it’s the Seattle Seahawks who ought to foot that invoice.

“It is my greatest take ever,” mentioned FS1’s Colin Cowherd, suggesting that after this season, a “excellent” match would have Seattle sending a first- and a second-round choose to Inexperienced Bay for the light legend. “Am I loopy?”

Nicely, sure. “Enjoyable.” However “loopy.”

Cowherd, holding courtroom on an entertaining phase on “The Herd,” notes that by advantage of the Russell Wilson commerce to the Denver Broncos, Seattle has a bushel of picks, and by advantage of drafting properly, has room to spend at QB.

A Tremendous Bowl-winning head coach in Pete Carroll and a Tremendous Bowl-winning QB in Rodgers! What might go flawed?

For Cowherd to be proper …

*Rodgers must be deemed value twice the cash ($60 million) that it may cost to maintain MVP candidate Geno Smith.

*Rodgers, who turns 39 in December, must be judged to have sufficient gasoline left within the tank. “He is not washed,” Cowherd insisted, a take that loads of NFL consultants disagree with.

*Rodgers must be considered as being value two premium picks – picks that Seattle might in any other case both use to a) add expertise to construct round Geno or b) draft an inheritor at QB.

*Rodgers must pledge to be invested in this system – and by “program,” we do not imply “retiring from soccer to host ‘Jeopardy,’ which nearly actually occurred this offseason.

*Rodgers must be “made glad,” one thing that the Packers have by no means, ever, ever been capable of accomplish, by means of teaching adjustments and roster adjustments and Rodgers threats and energy grabs. And no, whereas Cowherd jokes that Rodgers and the Seattle neighborhood are a match – He might “reside in a tent” and drink “psychedelic tea,” the host says – there may be zero proof that this explicit change of state of affairs would magically treatment Rodgers of his curmudgeonliness.

So, briefly, it is a fantastic concept, aside from the truth that Rodgers is taking part in poorly, is perpetually pouting, is a drama queen at a degree Wilson by no means dreamed, and could be among the many most pricy buys in NFL historical past.
