    It's a huge year for Jaire. His cap hit jumps to 23 million in 2024 and will be 25 and 27 million in 2025 and 2026. Starting in 2025 the Packers would save money on the cap by moving him. He needs to be an elite player to justify paying that salary.

    My bet is he blows this season. He has skipped most of the "dominant shutdown corner" part of his career and is transforming into the old guy who talks about how he was a dominant shut down corner. It works well for Woodson because....well, he actually was for 6-8 years. Jaire had a nice 10 game run at one point to land a contract. In his mind, his work is done and he is ready to impart all of his wisdom on to the young guys.

    He's still only 27. The last 2 seasons he's been healthy (2020 & 2022) he was 2nd team all-pro and allowed a passing rating in the 60's. He's still young enough to get back to that level. Health is the key.

    Agreed, but I think with Barry gone, his attitude will be fine.

    The old guy who talks about how he was a dominant shut down corner? Are you getting Jaire confused with APB? Only ONE of them shut down Darren Charles, y’know.
