2025 NFL Free Agency

Here's a disaster scenario. For whatever reason the Packers don't get either Garrett or Crosby. But the Lions get one of them, and say the Commanders or Rams get the other.

Other teams are going to get better, just nature of it all…shoot look at everything the lions had and health stole it…Eagles hit on some budget FA moves and some big ones…and stayed healthy.

Nature of it all

Garrett seems to be prohibitively expensive for Gluten's taste. It would likely involve giving up two firsts, and I just can't see him doing that. Crosby would take less, but still take a lot of draft capital.

I doubt that the Browns would want to deal with the Lions or Rams (or maybe the Packers), whose first round selections are in the 25 plus range.

Then again, Cleveland and LV are in rebuild, so who knows what deals may be possible?

Good point and I thought Walker played better when Cooper was on the field. Defenses are gonna have to account for Cooper, and that should make the other LBs more effective.

As for Clark, I get that there was an adjustment to a 4-3. Problem is, over an 18-game season, he never seemed to adjust. I don't believe he's lost it though, and this season will be a pivotal one for him as he hits 30.

Playing in the same system professionally for 6 years and adjusting to a new scheme and new responsibilities within one season is unrealistic. Might've made some sense to move Clark last offseason, while his value was high.

I think Green Bay should seriously consider identifying the core/cornerstone players and purging this roster.

Good not great...I'm sick of it.

The rising salary cap, free agents, disgruntled players on losing teams, and our own draft picks is creating a perfect storm to go anti-Jerry Jones and truly go all in.

I really think GB can go out and sign 2 outside FA upgrades. My preference would be
1. CB
2. WR
Honorable mention would be a Pass Rusher (DE, LB With Pass Rush prowess, DT with an arsenal

Obviously we were banged up at WR at the wrong time. Yet that happens to almost every team by playoffs and in several position groups. We can no longer be content when it’s regular that a lead WR or 2 miss significant time. I hear every season the same old argument that we’re deep. However that really proved false and in a big way. Adding another known quantity veteran WR in FA is wise. I don’t want a $30Mil guy, but someone who lives up to that 3-4yr X ~$17.5Mil +- annual area deal would suffice. Same goes for CB but keeping it in that $12-14Mil +- annual. Meaning someone who has a proven track record of being a plus starter.

Now that said im completely out of touch with who’s available for what market $. Inverting those expenditures wouldn’t bother me if thats how it shakes out.

Our D was impressive. We can get a couple more Defenders in the draft and if 2 pop? We could be staring at a Top 5 unit imo. We were a botched opening KR from being in the lead into the 4th quarter of the Wildcard and that was credit to our DC.
As far as ST? You never ever ever never start a high caliber contest by giving your opponent momentum in their house opening Kickoff, especially when that’s exactly why they Kicked it ti us in the first place. I might go into FA getting a new Coach (sarcasm) if they can’t figure out basic football. Some people are so smart.. they outsmart themselves.
