2) Rodgers may not want to do a Brady (play into his 40's). If he's not motivated to play another 3-5 years I'm not sure I want him as we'd be forgoing a draft QB for sure (for at least 2-4 years) to keep him that long.
3) He wouldn't be as affordable as a rookie in 1-2 years time. That means we'd have to lose cap costs somewhere else and with a desire to resign all/most of our burgeoning DL, I'd say we may well not want the cost.

Honestly, that's what I am hoping for -- Fitz is coming off one of his better years, maybe he's peaking late.

Also agree that the cap hit for AR would be big ... I really want to try to hang onto our young assets as they hit their next contract too.

I heard he watched tons of old shows, taking notes, to prepare for his hosting role.

It showed!

Look who showed up at the Masters. Looks like he may have drank too much water.

Look how he's standing.

Love the move of bringing in Fitzmagic, he brings veteran leadership on offense, he's savvy, and brings fun back to the team, and he's a "fine dresser"
