Why completing the Aaron Rodgers trade won't be easy for Jets, Packers

The Jets don't want to part with their 2023 first-round draft pick (13th overall) The Jets are seemingly boxed into Rodgers because they don't see a viable option on their roster.

The Packers are boxed in because they appear committed to fourth-year quarterback Jordan Love.

Rodgers, 39, was noncommittal on whether he'd participate with the Jets.

Rodgers has a $58.3 million option bonus (fully guaranteed) that must be exercised before the opening game.

If the Jets keep their 2023 first-round pick, the two teams will need to get creative to make it work.

The more the Packers agree to pay, the more compensation they will receive in the form of draft picks and players.
