He can test the market, but we have the right to match any contract offered and keep him in Green Bay. No, we can't trade him, so I was wrong. Under the old rules, he would be considered an unrestricted free agent at the time of contract expiration since he had 4 years of service. But since the rules were scrapped for the 2010 season, he would need 6 years of eligibility in order to be an unrestricted free agent. Of course none of it matters until a new CBA is hammered out anyway. Free agency can't begin until then. Also worth noting- After March 4th, players and coaches cannot have any contact with each other. I don't know if that extends to office personnel and agents though, so I have no idea how that will impact any potential extensions. My guess is nothing will happen until a new deal is hammered out.</blockquote>
