-- Packers Tried to Acquire Jonathan Taylor --
Wed Aug 30, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

ESPN reports the Green Bay Packers were in talks with the Indianapolis Colts and had legitimate interest in trading for RB Jonathan Taylor (ankle - PUP).

-- Jordan Love Impresses Again --
Sun Aug 27, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

NFL.com reports Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love was calm, cool and collected, leading the team's offense on a 15-play, 80-yard march in his final drive of the preseason, punctuating it with a 6-yard touchdown pass on a back-shoulder fade to WR Christian Watson. Love marched down the field on the opening possession, too, with an 11-play, 44-yard drive that ended in a field goal, but it was the TD drive that had Lambeau buzzing in the first half. Watson is making his case to be one of Love's main targets this in 2023, though he won't be the only viable option. Rookie WR Malik Heath had four receptions for 35 yards and was one of Love's more favorable targets on the day playing for the injured WR Romeo Doubs. Love finished completing 9 of 16 passes for 63 yards and a TD and looked to be in full control of the offense throughout.

Gary started training camp on the physically unable to perform list, but came off of it on Aug. 7.

That should give Gary a realistic chance at playing in the season opener against the Bears on Sept. 10th.

You never know what’s going to happen.” Crosby is the Packers’ all-time leading scorer with 1,918 points. Last season, he made 25-of-29 field goals, a ninth season of at least an 80 percent success rate and his career percentage is 81.4. The Cowboys are among the teams still in search of a kicker. “I’ve done it for a long time. I’m a known entity,” Crosby said. “Teams would probably just want to see that I’m ready to go, and I have a little bit left in me.”

Mon May 1, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

NBC Sports reports Green Bay Packers GM Brian Gutekunst wasn’t quite ready to say if the team would exercise the 5th-year option, which would fully guarantee QB Jordan Love’s 2024 salary of about $20 million, during his Saturday press conference. “Yeah, I’ve got to figure that out by Tuesday, I guess, yeah,” Gutekunst said. “We’re kind of still working through that. We’ve been so focused on the draft. We’ve had some preliminary conversations, but we’ll get to that before Tuesday.” As a follow-up, Gutekunst was asked why the team wouldn’t pick up the option. “Again, I’ve got to get through that,” Gutekunst said. “It’s a lot of money for a guy who hasn’t played.

-- Aaron Rodgers Seems Likely to be Trade During Day #2 of NFL Draft --
Fri Apr 7, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

NBC Sports reports it makes plenty of sense at this point to not agree to a trade of QB Aaron Rodgers until the draft pick the Packers will be acquiring is on the clock. Currently, the Jets hold consecutive second-round picks, No. 42 (via the WR Elijah Moore trade to Cleveland) and No. 43. That will give the Jets, as a practical matter, 10 minutes once pick No. 42 is on the clock to do the deal. That’s how the Packers should want it, frankly. As a general proposition of draft strategy, it always makes sense to acquire a pick when that pick is on the clock. If the team gets the pick before the time comes to use it, the teams drafting behind that spot will start wondering: (1) who the Packers may be taking; and (2) whether to leapfrog them.

-- Brian Gutekunst Speaks on Aaron Rodgers --
Tue Mar 28, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

NFL.com reports Green Bay Packers GM Brian Gutekunst says there is no timeline for an QB Aaron Rodgers trade. The team does not necessarily need a first-round draft pick in return for the first-ballot Hall of Famer and that all options are on the table regarding a potential return to Green Bay for the 2023 season, even if things were not currently trending in that direction. That said, a second-rounder in 2024 and a second-rounder in 2025 has been floated as possible trade compensation. In addition, Rodgers has avoided talking directly to any Packers rep to date this off-season.

Perhaps being face to face can help spur some action. Otherwise, strap in. Rodgers is eventually going to be a Jet, but it could take quite a while to stick the landing.

Thu Feb 23, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

ESPN reports QB Aaron Rodgers has emerged from his darkness retreat, according to the owner of the facility in southern Oregon where the Green Bay Packers quarterback spent the past several days and nights. Before entering the retreat, Rodgers said on "The Pat McAfee Show" on Feb. 14 that he had scheduled four days and four nights in darkness isolation and was hoping to "have a better sense of where I'm at in my life." Rodgers said he was not going to the retreat just to figure out whether he will play in 2023 or retire. Rodgers, 39, is under contract with the Packers for $59.465 million guaranteed if he plays in 2023. The four-time NFL MVP has played his entire 18-year NFL career for Green Bay.

-- Packers Could Rehire Nathaniel Hackett --
Tue Jan 10, 2023 --from FFMastermind.com

ESPN reports Green Bay Packers HC Matt LaFleur simultaneously gave defensive coordinator Joe Barry a vote of confidence while he also broached the subject of a return by Nathaniel Hackett, the former Green Bay offensive coordinator who was fired as Denver Broncos coach last month less than a year into his tenure. "I think I've definitely entertained all that," LaFleur said Monday. "I think you can never have enough great coaches, and certainly you guys know how I feel about Nathaniel and the job he did here. But again, just getting started into the evaluation phase. I did talk to him after he got let go in Denver. I know that he needs some family time as well." That initial conversation was more about checking in on a friend than it was job-related. LaFleur called the offensive plays even when Hackett served as the Packers' offensive coordinator from 2019 to 2021, and did so again last season with OC Adam Stenavich in the offensive coordinator seat. Stenavich is expected to remain in that role whether Hackett returns or not.

I have a lot of pride in what I've accomplished in this league, but I'm also a realist and I understand where we are as a team. We're a young team, and there could be some change with some of the older guys. It could be time to step away. But, I could take some time and say, 'Hell, no. I need to get back out there and go on another run.'"
