Question

Why can't the Packers trade Favre to the Jets/Tampa then have them trade Favre to Minnesota?

Answer 1

It's common practice to put stipulations in the trade contracts that won't allow a back door trade like that. Usually it's for 18 months, (not quite 2 seasons). Otherwise alot of teams would be pulling stunts like that to get players they wanted.  

Answer 2

If Tampa Bay is trading for Favre, it's because they want Brett Favre to play QB for them, not to help out the Vikings.  

Answer 3

the packers could add a clause in the trade saying that if Jets/Bucs trade Favre to Minnesota, the jets/bucs would have to lose draft picks. apparently it is common practice.  

Answer 4

here's what they could do, bucs get favre, release him Vikings pick him up and release a few players that the bucs want. It's not a trade now is it? that would suck for the packers.

Answer 5

Apparently that is the rumor, that the Buc's will trade him to Minnesota. Green Bay will probably put a clause in the trade deal so that can't happen.

Answer 6

That would be great!!

Who wouldn't want to see Brett and the Viks go up against the Pack in GB on the first Monday night game!!

Priceless!!

Answer 7

the packers wouldnt accept it....if i were a viks fan i would want garcia
