I actually like Richardson. In the right situation I think he can start in the NFL.

So Richardson was tendered at 1.5 mil and change and Oakland is giving him 2.5 and change. What's a million? I'll be surprised if TT doesn't match.
I could care less if we match or not; I'll just trust Ted on this one either way.
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 ?
Unless they've soured on him for whatever reason, they have seen him through college free agency, making the team his first year, getting hurt and rehabbing a serious neck injury, coming back and playing. They seem to like this guy. Depending on where they think his ceiling is, it would be strange to see him through all they have and just let him walk, but they kept Lattimore around for a few years and just recently let him walk. I say they keep him.

I'm surprised about Richardson. His biggest asset, his long speed, is wasted in the NFL because he never really runs at full speed. I don't think Green Bay will match, but it's only 2.55, so they might.
Barclay signs RFA tender of 1.542 million. He will be an UDFA next season.
I think Barclay is a good get. He's better backup material than Sherrodhouse.

Jarrett Bush is probably wondering if he's the sad little boy on the playground who no one picks for their team.

What's a good gunner worth on this team? Probably not enough to hold off a promising rookie or 2nd year guy who can play on D too. Without Bush and House, they'll need to replace both gunners this year.
Dmitri Goodson as the new Jarrett Bush?

Several articles yesterday mentioned that Bush posted on Twitter that he is recovering from off season surgery. Might not be ready yet to meet with and workout for teams interested in signing him, including the Packers. One speculated that it could be related to his hamstring problem from last year.
Could be the end of his GB career, if not his NFL career. A free agent 31 year old special teams player won't be signed unless ready to go 100%, and will be soon forgotten if the start of his season is delayed for surgery rehab.
