[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1055415, member: 17953"] You're right. Wyatt has one more year left. No gain in not keeping him for 2025. Even if his time is reduced. He still gets paid. Watson is a walking injury. He has weak knees. He not only tore the ACL, but has additional structural damage to the knee. That knee will never be right again. I'm gauging it on someone I know who had exactly the same type of injury that Watson apparently has. My own Son. He blew out a knee exactly like Watson did, and it takes a major rebuild to get it right, and even then, it's never going to have the strength it needs. Watson won't be ready for next year, and will be on IR for most of the season, then becomes an unrestricted free agent. Why bother keeping a spot open? Get help. Watson is a free agent after 2025. [URL]https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/76910/christian-watson[/URL]. Look at Stokes contract. It sure looks like 2025 is a Packer option year, and the option wasn't taken. [URL]https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/72409/eric-stokes[/URL]. You're right on Melton. An ERFA. If he comes cheap fine, but if it costs more, forget it. He isn't more than deeper depth in the WR room. What puzzles me on Melton is why they haven't used him in the long routes. The guy ran 40s under 4.35. He's as fast, if not faster than Watson.
