Beat me to the punch )))
I appreciate AJO. Jones and Dillon will make on the best set of RB's in the NFL
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
That's a lot for a RB, even for a very good one
I thought the 9 million people were talking about giving him was too much to pay a RB
History just keeps showing that it doesn't pay off to pay them

I am not sure how they will both be used. I could see Jones starting and Matty just going with the flow of the game.
Would really love to see them sign a WR and use the draft to shore up CB/OL, and ILB now
I thought Corey Davis, but I think CD is getting a loot of money and is on all kids of radar's

Rodgers
Jones
Adams
Tonyan
Lazard
MVS in the 5 spot.
Obviously bakhs injury looms a little, but the skill guys are there to move the ball. All three of Tonyan, Lazard and MVS, I think all of them have another gear in them. Would be cool if a Bulaga type RT fell in our lap. Then the offense looks pretty good. OT is my new top hope.

Tonyan didn't even have an offseason with the core surgery last year. I think he has a full extra gear with the physical gain and chemistry. Lazard with the core and chemistry too. He has a full extra gear. And MVS is still ascending. So the skill guys look to be top notch for 12.

Sigh. Ol was more important to sign than rb. Oh well.. He is a good player

Z Smith to sign contract extension to create cap room for A Jones new deal.
I think $12M a year for Jones is too much, but it all depends what the real numbers are in the contract.
I do like him, but expensive RB’s don’t usually pan out.
Rodgers has played with some varieties of teams. He's had OLs with Bahktiari/Sitton/Lindsley/Lang/Bulaga but had Richard Rodgers and Jeff Janis catching balls. And he's had Jennings/Driver/Nelson/Jones and Finley as weapons but had Newhouse protecting his blind side.
This is a skill position chemistry year for 12
Adams 8 years
Jones 5 years
MVS 4 years
Tonyan 3 years
Lazard 3 years
He has some chemistry with the whole arsonal but has a sketchy OL. 12 should be able to work some magic with a less than perfect surrounding cast because it has enough strengths to find some things they do well. If Bakh rounds into shape for the playoffs they could be elite down the stretch.
Jones makes the sketchy OL less of a concern.

TE with Tonyan likely to have a full other gear in him because of last year's core surgery and the experience with his QB
AND
Jones at running back with big play ability AND chemistry with QB
AND
Lazard having another gear and a TEs blocking skills
This is the best run/pass skill group Rodgers has worked with and should definitely be enough for a dynamic balanced offense to take shape.

I hate spending top dollar at RB...makes no sense. Jones is a great talent, but history is pretty clear that the chances of this deal looking good for the Packers at the end of it are slim to none. This basically means there will be no help coming for the defense this year unless we get ridiculously fortunate in the draft.
It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
Him and dillion are going to be interesting in backfield together. My daughter said he is 8.25 mill against this year.
I bet we could have got Lindsey and Desmond king for that money.

Real numbers look team friendly. Only $13M signing bonus and apparently the contract is $9.5M/year with incentives to reach $12M/year. I'm glad they got this done. I understand not paying RBs, but Jones is dynamic, he's great for team culture, and with Dillon they don't have to run him into the ground. MLF's scheme needs a good running game to be effective.
Since 1990, the three highest career yards/carry:
Jamaal Charles 5.38
Nick Chubb 5.23
Aaron Jones 5.17
"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson
Dillon and Jones are good compliments too. If Jones has a weakness it's short yardage. If Dillon has a weakness it's inexperience in a 3rd down role. Between the two, we should be elite in all situations.
