SO NOW DOES IT CLEAN SLATE? NOW THERE IS A NEW DAY. YEAH. NOW NOW THERE'S A QUARTERBACK THERE. I'M GOING SOMEWHERE WITH THIS THOUGH BECAUSE THE RUNOFF IS ALREADY COMMENCED. THE PROCESS OF PISSING OFF THE NEXT QUARTERBACK AS EVIDENCED BY THE COMMENT PUBLICLY FROM PACKERS GM. BRIAN DO TO KUNST ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WE JUST ASSUMED THEY WOULD DO PICK UP THE FIFTH YEAR OPTION ON JORDAN LOVE. HE HASN'T HAD A CHANCE TO PLAY FOR YOU TO SAY. WE DON'T WANT ON HIM, YOU'VE CLEARED OUT AARON RODGERS SO YOU CAN HAND HIM THE BALL AND SAY, GO DO IT. HE'S GOT ONE YEAR LEFT ON HIS ROOKIE CONTRACT. SURELY, YOU'RE PICKING UP THE FIFTH YEAR, OPTION. PLEASE DON'T CALL ME SHIRLEY. HERE'S BRIAN GUDYKUNST, I WON'T PICK UP THE OPTION. HAVE A LISTEN. YEAH, I GOTTA FIGURE THAT OUT BY TUESDAY, I GUESS. YEAH, BUT WE'RE KIND OF STILL WORKING THROUGH THAT WE'VE BEEN SO FOCUSED ON THE DRAFT. WE'VE GOT SOME WE'LL GET TO THAT BEFORE TUESDAY, WHAT WOULD BE THE REASONS NOT TO DO IT AGAIN? I GOT TO GET THROUGH THAT. THERE'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S A LOT OF MONEY FOR A GUY WHO HASN'T, YOU KNOW PLAYED BUT AT THE SAME TIME OBVIOUSLY WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH THEM SO WE'LL FIGURE THAT OUT BY TUESDAY. YEAH. I MEAN CERTAIN THINGS I DON'T THINK YOU SAY OUT LOUD, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'VE GOT A RECENT HISTORY OF A BAD RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR STARTING QUARTERBACK, IT'S A LOT OF MONEY FOR A GUY WHO HASN'T PLAYED, THE REASON HE HASN'T PLAYED IS BECAUSE YOU DRAFTED HIM INTO A SITUATION WHERE YOU HAD A GUY WHO BECAME A TWO-TIME MVP THEN PLAYED FOR ANOTHER YEAR. AND WHAT'S HE GOING TO DO? WHAT'S HE GOING TO DO WHEN THE JOB? WHAT'S HE GOING TO DO? BEAT OUT AARON RODGERS? HE HASN'T PLAYED BECAUSE YOU DRAFTED HIM INTO A SITUATION WHERE HE WASN'T GOING TO PLAY AND THIS IDEA. AND I'M SORRY, BRIAN. I'M NOT DOING THIS S***. IT'S DOING A POST DRAFT GM INTERVIEW SERIES AND I MADE A REQUEST FOR AFTER I SAY THIS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? WAITING UNTIL THE LAST FREAKIN DAY TO DECIDE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO WITH HIS FIFTH YEAR OPTION? YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU GOT. NO INKLING, YOU GOT NO IDEA. YOU'VE DONE NO RESEARCH ON A GIVEN. NO THOUGHT YOU'RE GOING TO PICK IT UP. SO WEÍLL BE. BUT WHAT'S THE POINT I UNDERSTAND STRATEGIC LYING. I DON'T UNDERSTAND, JUST THIS CASUAL. I'VE BEEN SO BUSY WITH EVERYTHING ELSE. I HAVEN'T EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT. WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THAT TELLS ME THE ANSWER'S. NO, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO PICK IT UP. YES, LEANING THAT WAY, RIGHT? THAT'S WHAT IT TELLS. I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT. I WOULD DEFINITELY AGREE WITH THAT. I THINK THAT THEY THOUGHT THIS, YOU KNOW, THIS HAS BEEN THOUGHT OUT, HE KNEW THE ANSWER THERE FOR WHATEVER REASON THEY YESTERDAY OR THEY WANT TO BRING IT DOWN TO THE DEADLINE TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THEY'RE HEMMING AND HAWING OVER. I DON'T KNOW. SHOULD WE HA? I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE WE SHOULD. ALL RIGHT, SO THAT'S WHAT I. BUT, BUT NO WAY. ARE THEY DOING IT? IT AND HONESTLY, USE YOUR RIGHT. I MEAN THEY PUT THEM IN THIS SITUATION BUT I YEAR OPTION EITHER. HEY, DANIEL JONES LIKE WE SAW LAST YEAR. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HE IS YET, I'M NOT COME IN 20 PLUS MILLION DOLLARS. TWO YEARS DOWN THE ROAD TO THIS GUY. YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PLAY THE ANGLE A LITTLE BIT OF LIKE WHAT THE GIANTS DID WITH DANIEL, JAWS? HEY, WE DRAFTED YOU. HEY WE LIKE YOU, HEY, WE KNOW WHAT YOU ARE YOU REALLY WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE AND, YOU KNOW, JUST STARTED THE BOTTOM AGAIN AND STARTER. WE PUSHED AARON RODGERS OUT THE DOOR, SO THEY HAVE THAT IN THEIR, YOU KNOW, BAG OF TRIPS TRICKS AND THEIR CORNER, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SAY THERE TO YOU KNOW PLACATE JORDAN LOVE WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE. HE KNOWS HE'S AT A SPOT HERE WHERE HE CAN BE THE MAN AND THERE'S NO OTHER SPOT IN FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW THAT HE CAN DO THAT. SO I DON'T THINK THEY EXERCISE THE FIFTH YEAR OPTION AND I COULD SEE IT BEING HEY, HE HAS IF HE DOES HAVE A GOOD YEAR, THEN OR SOMETHING OUT ON ANOTHER ONE OR TWO-YEAR DEAL. JUST TO KIND OF BUY A LITTLE MORE TIME TO EVALUATE HIM OR WHATEVER ELSE AND THEN THEY GO FROM THERE. WELL, PROBABLY A FOUR OR FIVE YEAR DEAL MASTURBATING, RIGHT AND HER TWO-YEAR-OLD? TWO MASQUERADING AS FOUR OR FIVE, JUST LIKE DANIEL JONES, THEY CAN PULL THE PLUG ON HIM SEAHAWKS AND PULL THE PLUG ON GINO SMITH. BUT, YOU KNOW, THE UNION GETS CRITICIZED, A LOT FOR THE QUALITY OF THE CBA'S AND NEGOTIATES AND PEOPLE ALWAYS GLOSS OVER THE FACT THAT THE END OF THE DAY, THE RANK-AND-FILE AREN'T GOING TO GOING TO TAKE A LOCKOUT THAT GOES IN THE REGULAR SEASON AND I'M GOING TO STRIKE IT GOES INTO THE REGULAR SEASON THAT SHIP SAILED THERE. YEAH, DAD'S CAREER. THAT'S JUST NOT IN THE CAN KNOWING THAT THE NUCLEAR OPTION IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. ACTUALLY THE FULL-BLOWN NUCLEAR OPTION IS GO OUT AND SET UP YOUR OWN GAMES WHICH WILL NEVER HAPPEN EITHER. BUT THAT'S THE ULTIMATE, THAT'S THE ULTIMATE COUNTER TO REPLACEMENT PLAYERS IS WE'RE GOING TO REPLACE THE LEAGUE. MY POINT IS THIS AGAIN. BACKDROP. IT'S HARD TO GET GREAT TERMS. THE UNION, ONE OF THE GREAT TERMS THEY GOT IN 2020, WAS THAT THE FIFTH YEAR OPTION IS NOW FULLY GUARANTEED UPON EXERCISE. IT USED TO BE GUARANTEED FOR INJURY UPON EXERCISE FULLY GUARANTEED FIRST DAY OF THE LEAGUE YEAR WHEN IT'S DUE TO BE EARNED. THAT'S WHY. ONCE UPON A TIME THE JAGUARS WORKED OUT A DEAL WITH BLAKE BORTLES ON A SHORT-TERM CONTRACT BECAUSE THEY WENT TO HIM AND SAID WE'RE NOT PAYING YOU THIS FIFTH YEAR OPTION, RIGHT? IT'S NOT DO IT, RIGHT? WE'RE JUST GOING TO CUT YOU. HERE'S HERE'S THE OR ELSE. HERE'S THE OFFER WILL MAKE YOU ON A CONTRACT. KEEP YOU AROUND. OF COURSE THEY EVENTUALLY CUT HIM ANYWAY. BUT THIS NOW MAKES IT LESS LIKELY THAT TEAMS EXERCISE THE OPTION AND THAT'S GOOD FOR THE PLAYER. IT'S GOOD FOR JORDAN LOVE BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH HE DOESN'T HAVE THAT INJURY PROTECTION THAT HE WOULD HAVE HAD IN THE PAST BECAUSE I THINK IN THE PAST, THEY PICK IT UP, PICK IT UP, RIGHT INJURY, ONLY WILL PICK IT UP, WE COULD ALWAYS CUT HIM AFTER THE YEAR. THAT'S RIGHT. IT PUTS HIM IN THAT SPOT WHERE HE'S HE'S NOW IN A CONTRACT YEAR NEXT YEAR. HE'S AN UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT AND THE PACKERS WILL HAVE THAT LIMITED WINDOW OF EXCLUSIVE NEGOTIATING. LIKE THE GIANTS HAD WITH DANIEL JONES AND THEY'LL HAVE THE THE LEVERAGE OF THE FRANCHISE TAG, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE A FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLAR GAMBLED. YEAH, LAST YEAR WAS ABOUT TEN FOR THE GIANTS, RIGHT? WHERE THE SALARY CAP IS GOING AND WHERE THIS NUMBER IS IT'S ABOUT 15 MILLION THAT THE PACKERS ARE PUTTING AT RISK HERE. IF THEY HAVE TO GO FRANCHISE TAG NEXT YEAR WITH JORDAN LOVE AND NO GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE FROM THE HAVE IS NO PROBLEM. YEAH, IT'S A GOOD PROBLEM BUT IT'S STILL A PROBLEM. IT IS, THAT'S RIGHT, IT'S STILL A PROBLEM. BUT YOU KNOW I THINK IT'S ONE WHERE IF THEY WERE EVALUATING RIGHT NOW AND THEY WENT HEY KNOPE IS YOUR OPTION. AND DAMN, HE PLAYED GOOD ENOUGH. THERE WERE GOING MAN WE GOT A LONG-TERM DEAL OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT. THEY'D STILL GO. HEY WE'LL TAKE IT FROM WHEREVER YOU'RE AT IN THE SITUATION WE WERE IN WITH ROGERS AND EVERYTHING THERE SO YOU KNOW WE'LL SEE WHERE THEY WHERE WE GO. AND YOU KNOW, AGAIN THERE'S SUPPORT, THEIR, HE DOES. HE DOES LOOK VERY CALM ON THE FIELD. I'VE NEVER FELT LIKE HE WAS FLUSTERED. WE SAW LAST YEAR THAT AND THEN THE COMING TOGETHER OF THE SKILLS THAT WE ALL THOUGHT, THE GUY HAD COMING OUT OF, YOU KNOW, UTAH STATE THERE. YOU SEE, THESE IS A BIG GUY MAN. HE'S GOT BIG HANDS, HE THROWS THE BALL EASY. IT SPINS NICE. IT'S A PRETTY SPIRAL YOU KNOW, SO WE'LL SEE AND THEN THERE ARE TEAM THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO DEPEND ON HIM AS WE KNOW, THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN THE BALL AND PLAY A PETE, FOLGATE TEAM FULL GAME THERE TO WHERE THEY DON'T NEED HIM TO THROW IT 42 TIMES A GAME FOR 380 YARDS. SO WE'LL SEE WHERE THAT GOES. BUT I'M HOPEFUL FOR JORDAN LOVE AND THE PACKERS IN GENERAL CANNOT BECAUSE IT LIKE YOU SAID, THE NFC, THE NFC NORTH IS NOT THAT DEEP AND I THINK THAT TEAM IS BETTER THAN PEOPLE ARE GIVING A CREDIT FOR RIGHT NOW SITTING 23. hit, subscribe for the latest
