Packers sign Martellus Bennett

[gbgary]

Rob Demovsky of ESPN Wisconsin reported was $20.25 million over three years, including a $6.3 million signing bonus and $2 million roster bonus in March 2018.

Color me crazy, but does this mean could be a one year deal if it goes south?

all nfl contracts are potentially one year except for quarterbacks...oh wait...

Well so far La Canfora has been much more accurate than Demovsky or Wilde. At this point would not be surprised if the Cook offered more turned out to fizzle too.

Those numbers are from Spotrac. I was just saying JLC was closer to actual numbers than Wilde/Demovsky.

If you got them somewhere else, give 'em credit.

bump lol

lots of love for marty ad hate for cook in this thread

so far this year, cook has been the real deal, and dickhead sucked before quiting on the team and faking an injury to get out of town

some of the better posts

Bennett is an upgrade over cook imo

Bennett is every bit as good. Had 701 yards receiving and 7 TD's last year.

Cook can go f*** himself. He had a great opportunity and he blew it.

Hell yea...great signing!

Bennett is a upgrade over Cook without a doubt.

Only reason people rather have Cook over Bennett is because Bennett speaks his mind.

Ya'll need re-calibration. Bennett is the real deal. Cook will go back to slumming it as a low-end starter.

Yea, I was fooled also. Thing is, Bennett has been a better player throughout his career. He and his brother got sidetracked by being disrespected and all. He turned out to be a real piece of shit, which is why signing other teams guys doesn't always work out.

the other end of the spectrum:

I'd rather keep Jared Cook.

Me too, TB.

Bennett is good, but I think Cook is a better fit for the team.
