    Should They Stay Or Should They Go?

    These Packers will either be free agents, or players who have outlived their usefulness or are overpaid. My take:

    Tramon Williams - The toughest call. Probably go, depending on his market value.

    Bryan Bulaga - Stay

    Jarrett Bush - Go - Not the impact ST player he once was.

    B.J. Raji - Stay - But for less than 4 million

    Randall Cobb - Stay

    Davon House - Stay

    DuJuan Harris - Go - Need a better KO return man.

    Sean Richardson - Go - Draft a safety

    Don Barclay - Stay

    Jarrett Boykin - Go - Easily replaced by Abby and Janis.

    Jamari Lattimore - Go - No instincts to play ILB

    Scott Tolzien - Stay

    Matt Flynn - Go - Tolzien should be ready

    John Kuhn - Stay - Why not? He's cheap.

    Letroy Guion - Stay

    Chris Banjo - Stay

    Brad Jones - Go - Way overpaid

    A.J. Hawk - Go - Looks finished.

    Julius Peppers - Stay - If they can make the money work.

    The FA market will make a run at both House and Bulaga. I'd question whether we'll be able to keep both of 'em.

    Richardson might make camp, but what happened to this guy? He really fell off in '14.

    Tolzein over Flynn? Yup, keep the Badger. Flynn channeled his inner Graham Harrell last season.

    I'm hopin' we do work something out with the old vet Peppers. He does need to work on his last minute interception leadership skills, tho.

    McGinn says Bulaga might be the top rated tackle in FA. If he gets Left Tackle money, it might be wise to let him leave.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    If someone is going to offer him 10-12 million per year, I would agree with that. I'm not sure it will happen though. He hasn't played LT but sparingly, and he does have his injury history.

    Tolzien showed nothing. I'm not high on Flynn, but he did win the game in Dallas. Time to draft a guy with a higher ceiling. (I suppose Tolzien could be this guy, but only the coaches would know. And if he already was this guy, he's be #2 on depth chart this sat season).

    I like House a lot. Would hate to see him go.

    Unless they can get peppers for super cheap, let him go.

    Tolzien, while not on the coveted Tank Hotshot QB List, did have a 20 point edge in passer rating over Flynn in preseason.

    As possibly the biggest Badger Homer in here...it's odd that the one Badger QB I had little or no feeling about either way ends up in Green Bay
    Honestly I'm surprised Tolzien is 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 ?

    one thing to remember

    WITHOUT, resigning any free agents, the defense is set to cost about 20 million more as a middle of the road at best, compared to our top ranked offense

    thats just flat out wrong IMO

  11. #11
    Tramon Williams - only stay if he is much cheaper, he is not imo worth the money he has been making

    Bryan Bulaga - keep him, shouldn't cost too much, and he had a pretty good injury free season. don't pay him too much though, because he's only had 1 injury free year so far

    Jarrett Bush -not worth the money, should be making vet minimum even if he is a special teams ace

    B.J. Raji - fuck off, should have been gone 2 years ago

    Randall Cobb - #1 priority, should have been locked up before the season, now will cost the team a whole hell of a lot more. he has all the leverage with the team not having the talent to be able to let him walk

    Davon House - i'd keep him, but not for much

    DuJuan Harris - see ya

    Sean Richardson - wouldn't mind keeping him for cheap to compete for #3

    Don Barclay - keep him, shouldn't cost much, but if he does, let him go

    Jarrett Boykin - goodbye, what a horrible year

    Jamari Lattimore - don't care either way, but we need to find more talent then he has to play ILB

    Scott Tolzien - goodbye

    Matt Flynn - don't care, we need to draft a new guy in the mid rounds

    John Kuhn - take a hike and take your 1 yard dive play with you. he is NOT worth the money

    Letroy Guion - keep for cheap

    Chris Banjo - keep

    Brad Jones - fuck off right out of town

    A.J. Hawk - career is over

    Julius Peppers - keep him

    I think Bulaga and House probably know they can get more as a UFA so hopefully they want to stay

    We can't lose Cobb
    I'd like to keep Bulaga
    I'd love to see Tramon return

    I'm not sure the rest matter than much

    It was interesting to read that Boykins was not speaking to the media for most of the year

    It was also interesting that after the Packers loss to Seattle Boykins encouraged Quarless not to speak with the media

    GOODBYE BOYKINS

    On a somewhat related note, Brandon Bostick's packer career is apparently over.

    His season started with him on the bench because he was a 3 year veteran running routes incorrectly. It ended with you know what. I guess he didn't get the importance of just doing your job the way it's supposed to be done. Some people will probably accuse TT of making him a scapegoat for the NFCC loss, but he was probably on his way out of Green Bay before that happened.

    Yup. I think they were keeping him around because he (theoretically) knew the system and his assignments, and it was less trouble than training up a new guy at that point in the season. When you really think about it, it was a TJ Rubley moment all over again, and like Rubley they never guessed when he went off the reservation is would end so spectacularly.

    Sounds like a new award has been given birth. The TJ Rubley Award. The Award that goes to the Packer with the most boneheaded play that cost the team a win.
    All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
