Aaron Rodgers’ trade limbo, Packers-Jets waiting game has Shannon Sharpe antsy

Quarterback Aaron Rodgers is yet to be traded, nearly a week after his official announcement that he wants to be a member of the New York Jets.

At the time, the quarterback told Pat McAfee that he was waiting on the Green Bay Packers and Jets to agree on a trade and compensation.

On FS1's "Undisputed," NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe said the Green Bay Packers need to lower their demands. He doesn't think they are going to get a first-round draft pick, let alone two first-round draft picks for the 39-year-old quarterback.

Sharpe said the Jets aren't going to give up the 13th overall pick for an older quarterback who may decide after next season that he is done.

“I'm not going to give you the 13th pick in the draft and the guy plays one year for us and he goes off into the sunset and you've got a pick that could be in the league for 10 years. That's not going to happen.

"I might be willing to do a third or fourth-round pick, make it conditional, if certain parameters are met but other than that, no."

Sharpe said that the Jets and Packers should agree on a conditional pick that would improve if Aaron Rodgers meets certain milestones throughout the season.

Sharpe also can't imagine the events that would transpire if the Packers can't work out a trade with the Jets and Rodgers has to stay in Green Bay.

NFL reporter says Aaron Rodgers may be the 'least suited' option to play for Jets

The NFL world is impatiently waiting for confirmation of Aaron Rodgers' move to the New York Jets.

According to Michael Rosenberg of Sports Illustrated, Rodgers could be the best quarterback to ever play for the New York Jets. However, Rodgers' personality and lack of patience with the media also makes him the "least suited" player for the franchise.

"Rodgers could be the best quarterback the Jets ever had and the least suited to play in New York. He hears everything and bristles at a lot of it," Michael Rosenberg said.

"For this to work, one of two things has to happen: Either Rodgers needs to completely change his personality, which is not realistic (or fair to ask), or he needs to play so exceptionally well from the first snap that nothing else seems to matter."

Rosenberg said the Jets' offense and Aaron Rodgers will mesh quite well. However, Rodgers will need to excel on the football field in order to divert attention from his interactions with the New York media.

With time ticking on what everyone thought was a done deal, it will be interesting to see what happens next.
