[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 957361"] I don't want to get into discussing semantics but Watkins had 125 receptions for 2,029 yards and 15 TDs in his first two seasons in the league. My point was that since then his production dropped significantly though. The Packers pushed all that money into future seasons to have a chance of winning another Super Bowl as long as Rodgers is around. It will definitely result in a rebuild year in which they have to take a massive amount of dead money counting against their cap. As mentioned before I don't think it makes sense to discuss about a player being in his prime. Adams has put up elite numbers over the past few seasons while Watkins has not. It's anybody's guess if that trend will continue or be reversed in the upcoming season. Don't forget that Adams played with Carr in college at Fresno State. In two seasons (26 games), he had 233 receptions for 3,031 yards and 38 touchdowns. Just for the record, the Packers would only save $10 million of cap space by releasing Jones after this season. They could restructure his contract to reduce his cap hit to under $10 million by pushing even more money into future seasons but I'm not sure that would be a smart thing to do. If the Packers decide to keep Jones after this season I fully expect them to convert his base salary and roster bonus into a signing bonus to reduce the cap hit for 2023. As mentioned above, the Packers could restructure Jones contract and reduce his cap hit for 2023, even saving cap space for next season compared to releasing him. They would have to account for that money at some point though. [/QUOTE]
