Packers sign Martellus Bennett

Only reason people rather have Cook over Bennett is because Bennett speaks his mind.

We need to let Lacy walk as well; spend that money on defensive help, and draft a RB in the draft.

I can't find it anywhere but my best friend is a Viking fan and he just told me Lacy in signing in Minny. They aren't letting him get to Seattle. I thought Seattle was first in the itinerary. FWIW

In my opinion, Lacy is the best RB they've had since AG. I was never a big Ryan Grant fan. He ran hot and cold. But Lacy carried the offense when Rodgers was out with his collarbone injury. If Lacy can control his weight, he's a top 8 RB. He's someone who makes things happen, and someone with the kind of talent and especially vision the Packers didn't have in a decade.

I want him back. Not for top 8 money, but top 15 money I would pay.

At this point we love Martellus Bennett. He's coming off the best year ever for a Bears Tight End and yes that includes Mike Ditka. And he had 7 td's last season, with 55 receptions for 701 yards.
So, Jared Who?
Put it this way, usually there's not much to get excited about at this time of the off season.

I see both sides. Lacy is the best RB, hands down, since Ahman Green. Not as good as Ahman Green, but the best since Green. So I get what you're saying. But then again, the dude was in a contract year and he still couldn't keep the weight off, and likely there is a connection between his extra weight and his stream of injuries. Do you really want to give a guy like that a multi-year contract, or let him suck up a big chunk of your sal cap? It would be a gamble. But it could be worth taking. Depends on whether you as coach and as GM really believe the guy is maturing and is capable of changing - soon.
