Report: Draft pick compensation holding up Aaron Rodgers trade between Jets and Packers

The trade of Aaron Rodgers should — key word “should” — happen at some point. Rodgers wants to play for the Jets and the Packers are ready to move on to Jordan Love. It’s just a matter of making trade happen and that’s where the sticking point is.

According to a report from Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports, the draft pick compensation is the holdup to the trade happening. Specifically, the conditions of one of the picks if Rodgers decides not to play in 2024.

From Robinson’s report:

“The trade is currently orbiting a deal that would swap Rodgers for two high draft picks, according to multiple sources who spoke with Yahoo Sports.
