I actually like Richardson. In the right situation I think he can start in the NFL.
So Richardson was tendered at 1.5 mil and change and Oakland is giving him 2.5 and change. What's a million? I'll be surprised if TT doesn't match.
I could care less if we match or not; I'll just trust Ted on this one either way.
Unless they've soured on him for whatever reason, they have seen him through college free agency, making the team his first year, getting hurt and rehabbing a serious neck injury, coming back and playing. They seem to like this guy. Depending on where they think his ceiling is, it would be strange to see him through all they have and just let him walk, but they kept Lattimore around for a few years and just recently let him walk. I say they keep him.
I'm surprised about Richardson. His biggest asset, his long speed, is wasted in the NFL because he never really runs at full speed. I don't think Green Bay will match, but it's only 2.55, so they might.
I started a separate thread about this.Quote:

I think Barclay is a good get. He's better backup material than Sherrodhouse.
Packers re-signed Kuhn. No details yet.
Jarrett Bush is probably wondering if he's the sad little boy on the playground who no one picks for their team.
What's a good gunner worth on this team? Probably not enough to hold off a promising rookie or 2nd year guy who can play on D too. Without Bush and House, they'll need to replace both gunners this year.
Dmitri Goodson as the new Jarrett Bush?
Several articles yesterday mentioned that Bush posted on Twitter that he is recovering from off season surgery. Might not be ready yet to meet with and workout for teams interested in signing him, including the Packers. One speculated that it could be related to his hamstring problem from last year.Quote:

A 10 year career including a huge play to help win a Super Bowl for someone with marginal talent is pretty damn good.Quote:

Add that to a spate of penalties and red will be right with you.Quote:
