Raiders had no real interest in Aaron Rodgers

When monitoring down the main points of the Raiders’ newest contract with Maxx Crosby on Thursday, I had a query for our supply earlier than finishing the telephone name.Just a day or two earlier than signing the brand new contract, Crosby stated he’d like Rodgers to enroll in the Raiders. So why don’t seem to be the Raiders and Rodgers speaking?The supply made it transparent that the Raiders merely were not thinking about Rodgers. The supply then stated, “I feel Pete [Carroll] needs Geno Smith.”Now that Carroll has Smith, Rodgers unquestionably would possibly not pass to the Raiders. The Giants stay the in all probability vacation spot, principally as a result of there is no different glaring selection.The Steelers made probably the most sense. They have got proven no hobby, both. Until the Seahawks are secretly making plans to head after Rodgers (not going), who’s there? The Browns, Colts, and Titans are the one different chances — and if any of the ones groups need Rodgers, they are retaining their playing cards extraordinarily with regards to the vest.After all, it could be the Giants or not anything for Rodgers. Or possibly he waits till after the draft. Or possibly he remains in form and waits for a starter on a contending workforce (or, if he has made up our minds he needs to play with out regard to the standard of roster, any workforce) to endure a season-ending damage.Again to the Raiders, it could be interesting to grasp why Tom Brady’s workforce did not need Rodgers. Through the years, some have stated Rodgers would have received much more Tremendous Bowls than Brady in New England. Alternatively, Rodgers’s general persona and manner does not appear to mesh with professional soccer the best way Brady realized it.And whilst there may be excellent explanation why to consider the 41-year-old Rodgers nonetheless has fuel within the tank, his abilities would possibly now not be at a degree that justifies coping with the remainder of the Aaron Rodgers Enjoy.
