    Veteran camp starts June 2

    A June 1 signing seems logical

    I think Allar may have put a wrench in these gears though

    Hope Rodgers signs with Cardinals. No more old QBs. Need to start fresh and new with Howard and Allar.

    I am indifferent if Rodgers comes back at this point. He may have a higher floor than Howard or Allar, but he is 42 years old, his ceiling is Wild Card round exit.

    Aaron Rodgers isn't taking this team to the Superbowl, that cliff is approaching, so I just prefer to see what we have in Howard or Allar.

    Agree. It was just a smart move by Kahn. Let's look at it another way. If the Steelers didn't tag him and he went to AZ and we later found out the Steelers could have had a comp pick, then fans would be screaming bloody murder for Kahn's stupidity.

    Personally I don’t think there is much to the Arizona thing

    That is just click bait

    IMO

    That is entirely possible. Aaron Rodgers operates on the same principle as Jerry Jones, you want the media always talking about your 'brand'.

    I think we all want to see what we have in Allar and Howard

    But throwing either one of them out there game one in September is a bad way to start

    A fill in the gap is needed and AR does that if he is willing

    MM would have no interest in signing AR to play the whole season while A and H sit

    He will want to see what he has before 2027 draft

    Sure but it wasn’t Rodgers that put that out there it was a click bait story that every other click baiter jumped on

    Plus one illiterate player in Arizona

    Rodgers wouldn't last 3 games behind the Cardinals offensive line. I don't know where this crazy rumor got started? Rodgers will either sign with the Steelers, or retire. I'm hoping for the latter.

    Im hoping Cardinals, gives us a comp pick.

    I think the rumor started because Brisett is apparently seeking more money. Plus the addition of a rarely used tag that is raising eyebrows.

    Rodgers does have some ties there both with Hackett and LaFleur.

    AR’s ego is to fragile and I wouldn’t put money on it

    But once Allar was available I expect that was where the Steelers moved to

    IDK

    Maybe
    Clickbait
    Yes
    I disagree but we will see

    Right now I would go with AR retiring

    Unfortunately that probably means Mason starts the season :puking 3:

    Too dead for me. I like trees, lakes, rivers, grass, and life. I actually don't see how anyone lives there unless they must.

    I may be reaching the point that my tired old ass can no longer maintain my property

    I made my wife live here in PA for a very long time and if she wants to move back to New Mexico I will go along

    But at least we would live in the mountains where there are seasons

    With that said last night while on about her 6th cinco de mayo beer she blurted out she would like to live in Rome :shrug:

    I only want Rodgers back because I believe the youngsters can learn from him, and I don't believe he would play the whole season anyway. He didn't last year, and I would bet he'd have missed more time if our backups didn't $hit the bed.

    LoL. I'm sure there is life ,but everywhere I've ever been it's everything they can do to keep a town, or city to look halfway alive, and as soon as you drive 10 miles out its like living on a dead planet. LoL

    Thats them positioning themselves for a comp pick.

    If they really want him back why never a formal offer.

    Im not saying he isnt coming back but strange handling of the situation.

    Keep in mind, my “yard” is 72 acres

    Plus the house I kept thinking was new I just realized became a 25 year old fixer upper

    But yes, I have hired more help in a variety of ways this spring

    I think they were waiting for the draft so they knew for sure what they were offering

    I can see two different conversations with and without Allar
