    Typo. Was supposed to say "The WFT has sewage leaks..."
    Read the NLFPA survey results for the top and bottom teams, it's pretty interesting. QBME posted the link above.

    Packers will create $10.5 million of salary cap space with release of inside linebacker De’Vondre Campbell on Wednesday https://jsonline.com/story/sports/nf...k/72841050007/ via @journalsentinel

    Campbell played well but faded this past year. Glad to see the front office making the right decision.

    That's money that's better spent on a free agent safety, but then at the same time still leaves us with a need at LB.

  5. #225
    It wouldn't take much to improve from the '23 version of Campbell. And $10.5m million cap space could get about a $70 or 80 million for 5 years Safety maximizing use of the cap - if somebody is worth it.

    I haven’t heard much about the free agent class at linebacker. Anybody have any insight, or random, unsupported, yet firmly held opinions on this topic?

    Per sources, Packers have re-signed TE Tyler Davis, the backup/special teams ace who tore his ACL in the preseason last year. He’s expected to be ready for the start of training camp, if not sooner.

    Packers ST coordinator Rich Bisaccia and coach Matt LaFleur love Davis.

    With a June 1 designation, so that cap space will not be available until later.

    the June 1 thing is surprising, I thought GB doesn't usually do that.

    Now just 2 Ted Thompson Packers left. Kenny Clark and Aaron Jones.

    We'll have to wait and see on this one.

    The #Packers are expected to sign Josh Jacobs, source tell me and @TomPelissero.

    Packers expected to sign Josh Jacobs… backup to Jones or hedge if he doesn’t restructure?

  13. #233
    Sounds like a good tandem. Jones is always on a pitch count, and Jacobs is a guy who is similar to Jones in style.

    Looking like it's happening. Jacobs and Aaron Jones would be quite a backfield duo, assuming they keep Jones.

    Jacobs had an off year last year on a terrible Raiders offense, but was fantastic in 2022.

    Good-bye and good luck, AJ. Wish you the best with your new team.

    EDit: I may have spoken too soon. I just looked up some numbers, and this dude made $11M last year. They're not adding that kind of payroll to back up Jones; I think they're replacing him.

    Is it worth upwards of $22M a year for those two?

    WR's and TE's on rookie contracts, I'm no capologist, but I think they've got room.

    If the Packers are making this move, they have already talked with Jones. I would expect he is willing to take a pay cut and get a deal that ensures he retires a Packer. The tandem role would actually extend Jones’ career, and provide coverage if either guy gets dinged.

    Jones showed the value of a RB to this offense last year. The team can’t afford to not have a capable full service back available at all times.
