I understand that the NFL is a business but what my Packers did to Jones just sucks.
He’s 30 and was probably playing in his last season as a packer regardless
@@Haduj56he just turned 29 in December
@@NWI_Steel jones missed 75% of the season last year due to 3 separate injuries, plus he’s 30, why not get a young star at running back? 29 in December = a 30 year old player tf
No excuses for signing with the Vikings, way to ruin a great reputation in green bay. Z-smith did the same thing. Bums the both of them
Packers fucked him over, now he gets to retaliate on the field @@gibbedup7504
Demanding a guy take a 50% pay cut is unreasonable in the NFL. It's disrespectful, actually, especially when he took one last yr.
He took a pay cut..... for the vikings.
Then he heads to a team for a lesser amount than asked him to take. Dude is almost 30 get over it
He was amazing when he was healthy at the end of the season. Also he really didny have bad playoffs.
Shut the eff up packers fans aaron jones is the best player on your damn team... one of the few core players that kept you relevent. Kiss ass if you're so thankless.
@@BanianYTthe packers told him he could stay for 4 million, the Vikings gave him 7 explain how that’s a pay cut
Everyones going to their rival teams this offseason lmao
everyone except vikings players
@@knightsky4438that’s because they’re going to contenders lol Danielle to the Texans who will win that division. Kirk to ATL and they’ll win that division. Marcus Davenport to the Lions who will win that division. Jordan Hicks to the Browns who just made the playoffs.
@@quackers584 ATL LMAO
@@knightsky4438you do realize that they were in the hunt for their division for a while there last season with a bottom three quarterback
@@knightsky4438it's legitimately a good roster that was being held back by the right arm of its quarterback the last two years
I thought Aaron Jones was the reason the Packers hung around so long in the playoffs and even made it there. I love Aaron Jones I have for years
Thought lol. He absolutely was. 2 100 yard playoff games an 5 straight 100 yard games to end the season
@grindn10101 key word end of the season j love was the made one that got us far
he also missed how many games every regular season the last few years if he was healthy they would’ve been higher then the 7 seed he balled out in playoffs that’s for sure though
@killerchampion7554 j love good but Jones ran in 3 tds vs Dallas in the playoffs along with 100 yards rushing. Stop with the narrative that he wasn't the absolute key factor in those games
Amen
Always something with former Packers signing with the Vikings
And it never works out for any of them.
@@Alran109Ryan Longwell and Brett Favre are the only 2 I can remember that actually worked out for them everyone else they could see why the Packers cut them.
@@Alran109I’d say Favre making the NFC championship is pretty decent
@@samring2742also Favre’s best statistical season 2009 w/ vikes
@@Alran109 Darren Sharper the football player did very well.
Darren Sharper the person can rot in jail.
I love that Aaron Jones did an f-you to the Packers.
Packers did him dirty. Could've had both of them in the backfield they played it right
It’s not a coincidence former Packers greats keep going to a division rival. They do everyone dirty. Thats why they only have 2 Super Bowls with 2 of the best Quarterbacks to ever play the position. I’ve been a Packer fan since I was a kid but man, they make it difficult don’t they
He pulled a Brett Favre😂
To be fair Vikings have been signing old Packer star players that they cut for years not just Favre.
See, he has been taking pay cuts for years, not the first time, Even with injuries, he is top 10 every year.
He hasn't gone to the Jets. Rodgers still has the chance to pull a Farve
Naw he did what was best for him I quite sure if your boss keep asking you for a pay cut you wouldn't do it either.Gutey is getting to cocky
Brett retired and got traded to NY for a year then to Minnesota a little different
You look better in purple anyway Aaron.
Packers low ball everyone including their best players then lie to their fans and say the team has high expectations
Wait....they wanted him to take a pay cut but then went and got Jacobs??
Yes. They weren't comfortable extending Jones or having his cap hit be so big because of his age and injury concerns but Jacobs is a different story. He's younger and more explosive. Also his cap hit this year is about the same range that they wanted Jones to be in.
Yes because Jones is gonna be 30. RBs are injury risks at that age they would rather get rid of him a year too soon than a year too late. The deal Jacobs signed is basically what Jones got on his second contract 4 yrs ago.
@@Alran109nah jones is a Baller and the only player I saw show up in your playoff game. Actually the only core player I've seen make a major difference for the packer the last few years. Get over the 30 year ignorance bs. Derick Henry and Aaron jones will still be balling 3 years fom now. Packers will regress with a second year slide from Jordan love. Defenses are studied up.
@@okgotit4103then you haven't been watching. He wasn't even available for most of the season.
@@okgotit4103this idiot thinks he has all the answers 😂
Remember when the Raiders had Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson?
Him going to the Vikings is perfect. Screw the Packers. When do the players start asking for loyalty? Teams ask for loyalty, and they make billions of dollars.
Gutekünst does all the veteran leaders dirty. 3 sides to a story. Aarons for Life. 🧀😎💔😞
Gutey got cut on UWL football team. I don’t think he’s gotten over it. Taking it out on Packer vets. He’s basically the Adam Gase of NFL GM’s.
The best RB backfield was Marcus Allen and Bo Jackson
Can’t wait for pat and the boys to talk about the new Rodger’s drama lmao
What’s that?
@@anthonyholder7629A-Rod is RFK’s vp
Rodgers for VP
Hope he wins ...... If he does run....
Aaron Jones fulfilling the other half of the Favre prophecy for Aaron Rodgers.
Although Farve went thru NYJ right?
Jones is gonna torch them twice a year
bro doesn't wanna freeze at every home game anymore
So he goes to Minnesota?????

Do the Packers ever treat their players right?
If your in the NFCN, your use to living in the cold. When a player becomes available, the other 3 teams know, “weather is not as much as a factor”
Didn’t he already restructure his deal twice when Aaron was with them? Why would he continue to take pay cuts
as far i undertand..he took a pay cut last year...and they saying he is our guy..and then waiting till the last minute to cut him is a dirty play..but that is the packers scenario..
It's as if the Packers purposely low-balled Jones to end the relationship. Then they sign Jacobs at double what they offered Jones. No wonder Jones went to a rival. I bet he took a pay cut from other offers to go to a rival. Typical recent Packer BS. Penny-wise, obsessed with age. Same BS with D Adams, Z Smith, Sitton & Lang, Micah Hyde, Linsley, all performing at a high level with new teams. Releasing Mason Crosby worked out too, right? Is it just a coincidence so many of these guys go to division rivals? And, people were gushing about how good Love looked at the end of the season. Maybe they should have noticed Jones had come back from injury and dominated.
U couldnt be more clueless. Jacobs cap hit is 5.5, jones woulda been at 17.5 mill without the pay cut they asked him to take which was between 7 and 9 which was more than he got from the vikes
@@dudelove69I didn't suggest Jones' contract (and therefore the cap hit) shouldn't have been re-negotiated. Maybe if Gutekunst didn't lie to us all about keeping Jones, it would be more ethically acceptable. I bet the Packers knew Jacobs could be signed when they dumped Jones (which may have been a violation), otherwise they would have acted very differently by negotiating in good faith. Open your eyes. Jones signed with the Vikings immediately, without even testing the market. Jones wants two games a year to embarrass the Packers, whom he loved. Feelings like that don't arise in a vacuum. Signed, Clueless.
@@mhartan it wasnt a lie... that was the plan. When jones refused to accept a pay cut, gutey pivoted like a good gm should. Im as pissed as anyone jones is gone but he shoulda just taken the cut and stayed and make more than hes gonna make in minny. Jacobs was signed before jones was released by at least an hour. Many people thought there was gonna be a 2 headed monster rb tandem. It had also been well known that jones was gonna be asked to take a pay cut yet again... i dont like that contracts signed dont have to be honored, but thats the nfl for u...
@@mhartan i mean, i wouldnt have said anything if u werent wrong about so much of your original comment. Adams leaving had nothing to do with age btw... he asked for a trade to the raiders and signed for less than packers had offered him to stay. Try learning the facts first before u comment 🤷♂️
@@dudelove69 Funny how you call @mhartan "clueless" and then proceed to write so much ignorant crap. First of all, you don't seem to understand the difference between cap hit and cash. Jacobs' cap hit is about 5.3M but he got a 12.5M signing bonus whose cap hit is going to spread out over 4 years, which results in 3.1M for 2024. That, plus other bonuses and a 1.2M base salary, it's the 5.3M. But Jacobs is making 14.8M cash this year.
Aaron was set to make around 12M cash in 2024, most from his 11.1M base salary. His 17M cap hit was due to those numbers + a previous pro-rated bonus. GB wanted him to take a pay cut down to less than 4M base salary and 2M in incentives. That's a 50% pay cut, maybe more depending if the incentives were reachable by himself or were more about team goals.
So, 1. GB is indeed paying more than double for Jacobs than what they offered to Jones: 14.8M vs up to 6M. And 2. You are lying by saying they offered 7-9M and he took less money from Minnesota, that offered 6M base and 1M in incentives. Oh and BTW, 3. GB low-balled Davante Adams by offering less than 20M a year before they decided to franchise-tag him, when he had already made his mind about going to Vegas. GB only raised his offer after that, but Adams felt disrespected. And rightfully so, being the #1 WR in the league.
Therefore, it's you who couldn't be more clueless. Try learning some facts first before you come around calling names and exposing yourself as the pretentious ignorant u are.
These gms have to stop giving these players a contract then expect them to renegotiate every yr
These numbers are wildly inaccurate. Jones’s contract was massively backloaded. His cap hit this year if it remained structured as it was would have been 17 mil not 12. It was 12 dead cap to release him. Jacobs cap hit this year is only around 3 mil. Unfortunately this is a move that had to be made. Super sad to her him go to the vikings
Your numbers are wrong too. Jacobs cap hit is around 5.5 mill not 3
Why is it that the Packers needed Jones to take a pay cut? Aren't the majority of their offensive weapons on rookie deals (besides RBs)? To my knowledge there is no dead cap situation, no outstandig top of the line contracts for any of the positions...
In a league where being a "1000 yard rusher" isn't even that noteworthy anymore (compared to the 90's), Jones had 650 yards and 2 TDs this season. The Packers got to the playoffs DESPITE him, not because of him (though, granted, once IN the playoffs he had some amazing production)
Green Bay fan - Green Bay NATIVE, in fact - and I love the guy. But he significantly underperformed his contract. There's a reason that - once released by GB - he didn't hit the market and break-the-bank as a free agent.
That's what I was thinking outside of Love I think they might be signing him to a big extension now but that's it
This move will come back to haunt the packers
That was so impressive how schneid managed to talk, hold the camera in one hand and throw a tuggy to Gute with the other hand lmao
Bots all over YT today 🤔
It's an election year
Facts man
i bought this for my brother and he loved it
Gutey couldn't give Aaron Jones 7 are 8 million you only start winning because Aaron Jones came back.Gutey is cold
I wanted to keep Jones for the rest of his career idc what the salary cap hit is. We don't think like GMs and if GMs did what us fans want to do they'd be fired because you can't run a team based on feelings. Jones has become injury prone. When one injury went away, another popped right up to keep him out longer. I wouldn't even mind keeping Jones anyway but Gutey has to answer to people who are gonna ask him why he's wasting money on players who can't stay healthy. Again, I agree with you but these GMs just think on a completely different level than we do.
I'm wondering if Jones only went to Vikings out of spite. He was liking tweets bashing the Packers on X today. Even with him being an age risk at the RB position I doubt the market wasn't available for him to be paid more or to sign with a contender.
This mess with team owners has to stop. No player ever should take a pay cut because their front office screwed up their cap situation. Either get rid of the cap for fully guarantee NFL player salaries. NFLPA needs to stand up for the players this is getting ridiculous
👍👍From Minnesota
Greatest Grab since getting Jefferson and Hock
LETS GO WE HAVE A GOOD RB SKOL VIKINGS
Sure…for about 8-9 games before injury bug strikes…book it
@@bottomfeeder12he played 15 games in 21 and 17 in 22 and 11 in 23 idk what you're saying.
And now you don’t have a QB again 😂 yall stay in the trashcan where you belong
They wanted him to cut his pay by 50% and be okay with it? 😂
Damn, “settled” on Josh Jacobs
Aaron jones about to smoke the packers twice a year
😂. Not likely. He will see lots of check downs from Sam Darnold. JJ will not get a lot of long balls this year.
@@rangerTessDarnold won’t be the permanent starter
@@joeypesek3936 True that. But he's likely your starter most of this year. Not good for my boi Jonesy.
Vikings on paper are probably the worst team in that division going into the season.
With that patchwork vikings offensive line with no good qb? And then lets talk about that defense that ranked one of the worst in the league last year and they have done nothing to improve their defense.
Jones now wearing a jersey the same colors as his high school and Green Bay the same colors as his Middle school... crazy
And still we have a so so offensive line at best.

@@maskedman5657 I think it’s his “Eff You “ to the Packers organization. I feel like the Vikings are rebuilding, with a great draft, perhaps reloading.

Maxx Crosby 2024 DPOY!!!

COME ON DOWN AJ!!
Now lets find a qb
Moving up for Maye!
Pat McAfee might as well be talking to one of us on current events…these cats don’t know
I'm all for Aaron Jones. Best of luck where ever you go! Packers made a huge mistake.
Yes what a mistake to let go of the 30 year old RB that missed half the season for a younger and more explosive back. How terrible.
Such a mistake to go get a real bell cow who's also younger.
"Settled on josh jacobs". Give me a break. Dude is arguably RB #1 in the NFL.
Especially when healthy and motivated
Wonder how he feels about cold weather?
lmao no he isn't. He's not even in the same galaxy as CMC.
I wish he could have stayed... But probably best for long run... Hoped to have both for a year
as a Vikings fan, it's fun pissing off Packers fans. remember Brett Farve?
There is a business side to this too in case people missed that
Packers front office puts together playoff teams every year regardless of QB, I wouldn't complain much about how they do business if I were a Pack fan.
this hurts so much
lol Schneidman
Aaron Jones does a Zadarius Smith
So it's not uncommon for players to go to rival teams now but damn, as a bears fan I gotta say, the NFC North is for the streets, no loyalty from neither players nor teams
Look at Saquon to Philly! Now that’s cold
No other division in football gets its own moniker but the Black and Blue.
It’s not like they have a choice. They have to go with what team will take them and be satisfied with the pay. What do you expect? AJ to say well I’m just going to retire?
What Aaron don’t see is drew don’t step on the field you do
I have 0 animosity towards Jones. I still like him, even in purple. What the Packers FO did to him was straight up disrespectful IMO, even if this deal is better on paper.
Its the ultimate FU to the Packers 😂😂💜💛
This was a terrible move by GB… very disappointed…
How is that? Yes it hurt emotionally but it made sense
@@juniornando8820 because they could’ve kept him and had the best running back duo in the league. That’s why it’s a terrible move…
@Maynardd from what I seen they got jacobs in response to not keeping jones not intending to have them both
Everyone else in the NFC North always grabbing the Pack's sloppy seconds. 🤣
Honestly sad to see him go though, hope he does well for the Vikings, just not against Green Bay lol.
The other teams are better at player valuation.
I like Jacobs, but Jones is better. You aren't even paying Jacobs what you demanded Jones to cut to. Not happy about it at all.
Funny they showed a picture ofJosh Jacobs against the Vikings like he did something. Bro only had 34 yards on 13 carries against us lmfao a mighty 2.6ypc
3-0
They could've afforded it. Unless they draft a prem running back i dont see letting go of jones a good thing . Jacobs has been hurt before too .
Jones was by far my favorite Packer. It sucks to see him go. It really sucks to see him go to the Vikings. However, I wish him the best, just not against the Packers. I hope he retires a Packer.
Jones is my favorite vik hope he retires a viking
Aaron Jones to Vikings and Jonathan Owens to bears......
Aaron Jones signed with Vikes is a middle finger to the face.
From the Packagers to Aaron!
The Vikings are one of the few teams that even have an opening at rb, and u can be sure as hell jones isn’t the only one they will add
They kept chandler. They wont add anyone else after jones
We won’t add anyone else in FA. Maybe a later draft pick but we also have Ty Chandler who’s smaller and can’t pass block all that well, but he’ll learn a lot from Aaron.
@@TillerG7 u will love Aaron when hes on the field, used properly of course.. i hope the best for him and that he can stay healthier this year. Good luck jonesy from a packers fan
and all we get is the packers pundit to talk about it
🙄 packers always making the best of moves. Fkn ridiculous.
Wait til Jacob’s gets 25 yards on 12 carries and Jones smokes GB for 150 and 2 TD’s at Lambeau. GB won’t make the playoffs on 2024.
Packers made the right move , lions and packers will be a dog fight for the north next year
You hate the Texans huh ?
damn i really wanted him to go to the Niners, you KNOW he would fit in there and you KNOW he would look better in Red and Gold ❤
traitor to the packers??? they let him leave
In Gute we trust
LOL to the queens hahahahahahahaha
Your Mother! 🍆😮
Vikings should've given him three years
1yr “prove it” deal…if he does what he needs to do, we’ll extend him. We’ve got money to toss around next season.
Shows truly bad. I subbed. Gimme first things first. 😊
Currently the oldest player on the Packers offense is...former USFL MVP QB Alex McGough at 28 years old (turns 29 in November)
Get a Man who can take 40 percent of the show. Mr. Cigar man and Joe dirty jr. Along with a kid from the booth isn’t it.
Everything is pain
What do you mean this is awsome!
The Vikings have no qb
Do you know what the draft is?
The have Sam Darnold!
Just saying if Vikings draft one of the 4 top QBs AND BLAKE at RB, it’s OVER. Vikings will win the NFC pretty easy. The nfc took a step back. Far as eagles and 49ers. The nfc NOW owns the NFC. All 4 teams will be damn good!!! Packers getting Jacobs makes them a good offense now. If they draft a WR and hit on that, they will have a great offense. Lions are great but losing there safety will hurt them even though he didn’t play all year except 3 games. The bears will keep Justin in my opinion and add another linemen and WR and that give Justin what he wants. Bears will have many future picks as well.
🤣🤣
What does that even mean “the nfc NOW owns the NFC”?
Next thing I hope davante Adam’s comes back that would be a super team
In fairness. They're all overpaid and the crap with the QBs is absolutely ridiculous. Each player should only get a pay raise if they win a SB.
The money you make normally depends on how many people can do your job. Around 8 billion people on the planet. Only 32 people are good enough to be starting QBs, and only around half of those do it really well. Why shouldn't they be compensated for it?
@@TheVicvega26 oh they are more than compensated for it
@@356z You can always tell someone's poor and uneducated with comments like these. It's called percentage of the gross. If anything players should be paid MORE based on how much money their product makes.

Jones goes to the Vikings where he has no chance to win for 7 million
Well when you only play 8-9 games a year and you’re on a snap count ….where is the value exactly. I like this signing of Josh Jacobs
Running backs continue to get fucked over lol
Yep. We’ve won the off season.
What no you didn’t 😂
🤡🤡🤡
how😂
You just lost your best pass rusher and your quarterback what do you mean?
I love the narrative switch about kirk since it looked like a team outside of MN could get him 😂

Offseason isn't over, but I do love what Kwesi is cookin, just don't draft Bo Nix!
Vikings follow the Pack so badly
All the keyboard GMs out in force again.
SKOL

Another Barkley. These dudes are sensitive AF because they'll rather spend the rest of their career getting back at the girl that dumped them.
:(....
Glad. He could have went to a good team and made a difference against us in the playoffs. Now he will b sitting at home when it matters.
Aren’t fans suppose to be excited to get players to reach the Super Bowl, not Viking fans they get so excited that they pee themselves that they are getting sloppy seconds from greenbay, oh by the way it never works out.
Hey lil buddy can you explain what the Packagers actually pack?
@@roryolson61Well they package those Super Bowl trophies something Vikings don’t know how to do. How many do you all have oh wait you don’t have any.
