    TJ Lang goes to Lions

    Mike McCartney‏ @MikeMcCartney7 1m1 minute ago
    OG @TJLang70 has agreed to a 3 year contract with the @Lions
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    that's better than going to the ospreys as far a the Packers are concerned.

    any confirmation of this?

    all i'm seeing is that he's narrowed it down to the lions, seahawks and packers (all the teams he visited)

    and he said that on TV in the last hour

    Pretty sure that is his agent's Twitter. Unless he claims he got hacked ...

    Objectively, I don't want Lang at his age for a 3 year 3rd contract and big money. Though pay as you go would mitigate a lot of that, still not my favorite way to spend money on a position that can be had cheaper.

    But I would really rather have Tretter back for some options. Or at least a plan beyond Bulaga at Guard.

    Meet Lucas Patrick, possibly your starting Guard in 2017.

    Maybe. Or Bulaga. Or Spriggs. Or a draft pick. Packers not afraid to stick a rookie in there on the OL.

    Well, the guy's from Duke. At least he will comprehend why his ass is being beat into the ground.

    Thank you Lang for your services. No hoWrd feelings. But can't wish a rival a good luck so gooday. Guess OL gets added to possibilities in the draft in say rounds 3-5 maybe? Who knows really, but its fun to guess.

    Gonna have to sign Taylor long term, and Lindsley. Then we need one guy to step forward. Springs, Patrick, Murphy or a draft pick.

    Lang is getting $9.5M average for 3 years with $19M fully guaranteed. No way Ted matches that.

    G T.J. Lang received a three-year, $28.5 million deal with $19M fully guaranteed, according to source.

    Was told Packers best offer wasn't close: 3 years, $21.5M with $6.5M guaranteed. Lang would have stayed if it was close. Clearly it wasn't

    If these numbers are correct, Ted was right to let him go. Congrats to Lang for skinning the Lions. I think we will be OK in the O Line whichever way it goes - Bulaga at guard and Spriggs starting sounds good. It's Aaron Rodgers' mobility that makes all these guys seem better anyway.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Everybody knows, or everybody should know, it's a game of replacement. More power to the players who get a big pay day. A player deserves whatever the market will bear. I am thankful that our GM doesn't panic and sticks to his guns about what he thinks a player is worth in terms of cap hit.

    Even though some fans perceive there to be a lot of money under the cap, that doesn't mean it has to burn a hole in the GM's pocket, or cause him to panic about life without that player, or overpay to keep that player. Every GM knows it's a game of replacement, and have to operate like that, with a long view of the future. Fans just want to win now, which I get with a franchise QB. Nobody wants to go back to the scary cap days of Sherman. 2005-2006 was pretty lean around our franchise QB. If going all in means a cap mess later, count me out.

    You ain't Lion.

    As a distant Packer fan, I kept seeing Lang on the injury list and/or helped/carted off the field. I hear he's Packer People, but I don't think he's got 30 of 48 fourth quarters in the regular season left in him.
    I believe in God, family, Baylor University, and the Green Bay Packers.
