[QUOTE="DePack, post: 28093, member: 210"] Pack...Favre will be back for a couple more years. I'm torn on Walker's ACL (pun intended). It's hard to feel sorry for rich owners but it is also hard to feel sorry for rich players. Walker will make 7.5 mil in 5 years. I really like him though. He seems like he has a good head on his shoulders(despite scoring a 9 on the Wonderlic test). Unless you hit the lottery, it takes the average fan considerably longer than 5 years to make 7.5 million. The Packers and other teams have been burned by players stealing money in the past (Hunt, Johnson, etc..). Having said that....I would love to see the Packers offer Walker a 1 million dollar roster bonus to rehab his knee with the promise to TRY to work out a long term deal next season if he heals right. I realize it would hurt our cap number but in the long run it would spread some goodwill between the Packers and Walker and make it easier to sign him to a longterm deal. It would also make Green Bay more attractive to free agants if they spread some goodwill. [/QUOTE]
