Aaron Rodgers has won two consecutive NFL MVP. He's been one of the fantasy MVP's for two

0:09.4

straight years as well finishing as a top five quarterback in two straight seasons.

0:13.4

And now he is back with the Green Bay Packers on a massive deal and may keep him there

0:18.1

for the rest of his career. So I'm out of measure with Jamie Isoburg on this bonus podcast

0:22.7

of fantasy football today. Jamie, are you happy about this?

0:26.5

I am for multiple reasons. One that the saga is over, the sole pop is over. We know he's

0:30.9

going to stay in Green Bay. And I do think he's going to stay there for the rest of his

0:34.0

career at 37, 4-year deal, probably going to keep him there, barring a trade. But I think

0:40.4

it's the best place for him. I think Denver would have been fun. Pittsburgh, Tennessee,

0:45.3

the teams that he had talked about would have been fun to see how he would have done

0:49.9

with a different coach, different receiving core, different conference in a couple of cases

0:59.7

franchise tag deadline. We're assuming that Adams is going to remain a packer now that

1:04.8

you know what you're getting. And we'll see what happens with the rest of the free agency

1:07.4

in the draft. Mark was about this, scaling is an unrestricted free agent, Al and those

1:11.0

arts are a restrictive free agent. Assuming one of those guys leaves most likely MBS and

1:17.0

what they do to bring somebody else in. But Rogers has certainly proven that he can get

1:21.2

by with one elite level talent and then just parts around the Mata Adams, the running

1:25.8

backs, cats and all the backfill. But he's my number five quarterback that might be too

1:29.6

low. I can certainly understand the sentiment there. But I have him after Alan Mahomes,

1:34.9

Herbert and Lamar Jackson, then Aaron Rogers was where I ranked him before this news. I

1:40.7

thought he was staying in Green Bay. And so I would draft him accordingly in that spot
