Bak missed a 2nd practice in a row. Not a good sign. He was supposed to participate to my knowledge. His health may make a trade impossible, and our OL depth get shallow real quick.

I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
That contract makes a trade near-impossible. Almost $20 million both this season and next in bonus money that get slammed onto our cap if we part ways. Maybe there's another team with a high dead-money contract that we would both hold our noses as the cap smoke burns.
If we trade Bak, the other team gets him for $1M this season and about $20M if they want him in 2024.
I believe in God, family, Baylor University, and the Green Bay Packers.
I think he might not be fully healthy, and probably never will be. MLF said earlier they were working DB's practice schedule from Family Night backwards, and he basically got the week off. That tells me his knee had some kind of reaction to practicing. Maybe it's temporary, but I got the sense that it was the new normal for him to need to baby that knee a little. When he's able to go, he's been good. Wouldn't be shocked if they keep him and Njiman this year, I don't think you can trade either.
I also wouldn't be surprised if he retired after 2024 ... this knee business will scare teams off and it seems like his knee is going to be a permanent, lifelong issue.
