As the Packers and quarterback Aaron Rodgers continue to not make any obvious progress toward fixing a contract that desperately needs to be adjusted to reflect his status as the best quarterback in football (or Nick Easton Jersey , at very worst, second best â that should keep the Patriots fans from having a Saturday morning conniption), plenty of creative terms have been bandied about in order to protect him from further changes in the market.
Hereâs the latest possible tweak to the deal, and arguably the least likely to ever happen: Mike Garafolo of NFL Media recently reported that Rodgers wants âsome sort of out clauseâ that would allow him to renegotiate the deal if/when (when) itâs leapfrogged by other quarterbacks.
Under his current deal, which had a new-money average of $22 million per year when signed in 2013, Rodgers has seen in less than two years a parade of lesser quarterbacks leave him in the dust, as the baton of highest-paid quarterback has hot potatoâed from Andrew Luck to Derek Carr to Matthew Stafford to Jimmy Garoppolo to Kirk Cousins to Matt Ryan, who has a new-money average of $30 million per year.
Whatever Rodgers gets on his next deal, someone eventually will pass him by. Surely Aldrick Rosas Jersey , the Packers wonât agree to let Rodgersâ contract expire on the spot, forcing them to pay him more or to risk losing him.
It could be that Rodgers has decided to ask for something that aggressive in order to get the Packers to offer a term that would be more realistic. Multiple players have tried in recent years to tie their compensation to a percentage of the salary cap, with any future increases in the total available dollars reflected by commensurate increases in the dollars paid to the player. Rodgers also could ask for a provision that ensures heâll always be the highest-paid quarterback by requiring his contract to immediately match the annual average of the contract given to anyone who achieves a new high-water mark.
However it plays out, the Packers have no reason to give Rodgers a ticket to the open market whenever someone makes more money than him. And if Rodgers insists on that, the Packers need to simply say to him, âYouâre under contract for two more years, and we will tag you for the next two years after that.â
And thatâs really the lesson for all quarterbacks to learn, as a result of the Rodgers deal from 2013. When committing for seven years, the market will at some point pass you by. So Adrian Clayborn Jersey , you know, donât commit for seven years.
Add LSUâs Danny Etling to the list of quarterbacks drafted by the New England Patriots since they took Tom Brady 18 years ago.
As a seventh-round pick, odds favor him joining the previous eight who didnât replace the franchise icon set to turn 41 this summer.
Still, director of player personnel Nick Caserio figured there was a decent chance the Patriots would add someone to Bradyâs room during a busy draft that featured nine picks and 10 trades over three days a year after New England made just four selections.
âWe knew we were going to add to a quarterback to our team at some point,â Caserio said after the draft ended Saturday. âWe think Danny has some decent traits and decent qualities to work with.â
New England used the draftâs final day to fill a handful of needs on both sides of the ball and gained three picks for next season, including a third-rounder from Detroit. As of the draftâs conclusion, New England holds 12 picks for 2019.
âBusy weekend and a lot of effort from a lot of people,â Caserio said. âThis is not a one-man show. This is a team effort and embodies what this program is about ⦠putting the team first and doing your job.â
After making six trades during the first four rounds, the Patriots addressed the linebacker spot with their first two picks Saturday. New England took Purdueâs JaâWhaun Bentley with the 143rd overall pick in the fifth round and Arizona Stateâs Christian Sam in the sixth (No. 178).
The Patriots then shifted to offense Ryan Quigley Jersey , taking Miami slot wide receiver Braxton Berrios at No. 210 in the sixth following by Etling with the 219th choice. New England also took Western Carolina defensive back Keion Crossen (No. 243) and Florida State tight end Ryan Izzo (No. 250) in the seventh round.
Etling will join Brady and backup Brian Hoyer on the depth chart after throwing for 2,463 yards, 16 touchdowns and two interceptions last season.
âI donât have any expectations other than going in and learning as much information as you can and preparing for your chance when it comes,â Etling said. âYou just want to watch a guy whoâs so great and know how he does it.â
Etling spent his freshman and sophomore years at Purdue and was a teammate and close friend of Bentley.
Here are some other things to know about the Patriotsâ draft:
ANOTHER BOILERMAKER: A three-time captain at Purdue, Bentley follows a line of Purdue linebackers under coach Bill Belichick. Rosevelt Colvin played in New England for six seasons (2003-08) and Rob Ninkovich retired before the start of training camp last year after eight seasons.
REPUTATION DEFENDER: Sam tried to discount an NFL.com profile that suggested he doesnât like to practice.
âEveryone has their own opinion and itâs something I canât control, but I felt that wasnât true,â Sam said. âIâm a guy who takes pride in practice because I know how big it is to prepare so you can play at a high level.â
The Texas native played cornerback until his junior year of high school and was a special teams player for the Sun Devils.
IN THE SLOT: The loss of receiver Danny Amendola to AFC East-rival Miami goes beyond the departure of one of Bradyâs most-trusted targets. It also created the need for a punt returner that was addressed with the drafting of Berrios. In four years at Miami, Berrios averaged 10.4 yards on punt returns.
âI absolutely love it. Thereâs something about it that gives you an adrenaline rush,â the 5-9 Logan Paulsen Jersey , 183-pound Berrios said.
STILL NEED: Etling will compete for a roster spot, yet it would appear the Patriots are comfortable with the idea of finding Bradyâs potential replacement next year, especially with two second-round picks and three third-rounders. Even with the additions of Bentley and Sam, New England figures to remain active for linebacker help.
