Do the Packers even have any needs to draft besides a KR/PR at this point?
Still need a RB, WR, RT, RG, ILB, DT, CB, and FS

This year I’d try to stay in that 5-8M range where you can have 4 or 5 above average proven veterans filling all these holes. That allows us to get super creative and either trade into the top 7 ahead of Detroit (please dear Lord let one of the top Defenders slide just a hair) OR trade back a smidge and then attack rounds 1-2-3 with 5 picks before the NE compensatory selection games begin.
Go Gute! Don’t fire til you see the whites of their eyes boys! You’ll waste your musket balls! Let’s get multiple kill shots all at once!
Holy Crap... I LOVE Gute! All solid (not spectacular) signings that greatly plug holes in the roster. This will allow the draft to be "fluid" and take BPA rather than NEEDING to plug a hole. I can, now, see Gute trading back in round 1, amassing more high-round picks for '19 and '20 and still improving the roster.
you could say that AR is a >95% pure version of copper while bortles is <60% pure, this does occur in nature with certain elements.
i was just bustin your chops a wee bit.Ahhh, but when you trade copper, you're only trading the copper portion. So, to your example, would we be trading Rodgers' left hand for all of Bortles?
Starting to feel like we might be having a drunken sailor moment now that some of these contracts are coming in...
Did we really just sign $100+million at lb?!?
Wow, $118Mi/4rs to be specific.Did we really just sign $100+million at lb?!?
So you don't have any problem with the fact GB didn't sign anybody yet, and all of your posts about not signing anybody yet are about what exactly?
I wouldn't call it negativity as I'm typically one of the optimistic guys usually. I've just seen this play out plenty of times, so I'm keeping my expectations severely low. Lower your expectations and you're never disappointed.
As for Graham, we'll see how this year goes, personally I wish we kept Cook.
With respect, like duh with a capital D. No one is saying to throw money left and right and sign everyone, I don't think any one is suggesting that. My point wasn't in regards to this first day of FA as I've mentioned, this is just how I view the front office based off years of watching them. I just have low expectations in regards to who we're going to sign.
Ha! That's the same one Nagler used for his Twitter! My comment was in regards to how we go at FA in general, not simply the first day of FA. It would seem we're at an impasse my friend. Only time will tell I suppose.
Sure did:
Za'Darius Smith - 4yr/$66M w/ $20M signing bonus
Preston Smith - 4yr/$52M w/ $16M guaranteed
Adrian Amos - 4yr/$37M w/ $35M paid out in first 2 years. (Russ Ball you sneaky devil)
$155M on the defense. Wow.
Beasley to the Bills

Plot twist! LB Anthony Barr has decided to agree to terms to remain with the #Vikings, sources say. He will not be a member of the #Jets after all.

Or just a way to get the Vikings to flinch and pay him what he wanted? I'm sure he had every intention to sign with the Jets, but guessing the Vikings really didn't want to lose him, saw the Jets offer and said "ok, we can pay that".I wonder how much this was Barr getting cold feet vs. Jets maybe not offering him the money he wanted because going to up their money to Bell

Today is really throwing my Mock draft for the Packers for a loop!
No longer is the need to prioritize OLB and probably not even S or G.
Love it!
yes, and then followed it up with complaining GB hadn't been signing anybody within the first few hours of legal tampering opening up. I get it. LOL...I mean at this point I kinda feel I stated myself clearly.
