Favre

Brett Farve wants to play in 2008. The question is, with who? The Packers have been speaking to various teams in the league, exploring Farve’s worth in a possible trade. Most of the teams are in the AFC but some NFC teams have been contacted. Even though they are feeling out their former star QB’s worth, the Packers might not necessarily trade him.

I know its hard to believe that Green Bay could part with their legendary quarterback but a trade would actually make sense. The Packers have a good QB in Aaron Rodgers and drafted that position in this years draft. Keeping Farve in the line up as a starter would make those assets worthless. They could benefit from trading Farve for other lacking positions and possibly 2009 draft picks.

Farve, when/if he returns, is willing to go to any team that makes a deal with Green Bay; that is if his team does in fact trade him. That aspect will influence any would be deals but Farve does desire to play for Green Bay in 2008. Although he has yet to announce his comeback, he has already been told he would be coming back as a backup to Rodgers. Farve would only need to send a letter to the NFL and the Packers asking to be reinstated and he would be able to play in 2008. When or if he does that we don’t know but I’m hoping he does. I’d like to see him play for another team and spread the talent around.
