2014 Free Agency Rumors and or Speculation

[mraynrand]

Why do you guys want to sign defensive linemen??

We only play 2 at a time anyway...

Major Wright of the Bears is still out there. Maybe we trade each other's rejects.
Major Wright was drafted right after TT traded up to take Burnett; maybe we're destined to have both !

I thought of that too, but I doubt it. If there was a team that had worse safety play than the Packers, it was probably the Bears. The Bears definitely won't be bringing him back. They've already given his jersey number to Ryan Mundy.

Ryan Mundy might not be a bad signing if that front four can get intense pressure on the QB. Talent wise, he's average at best. But he's a guy who goes out and hammers and special teams. And he's a guy who is prettty well known for being the smartest guy on his defense. He's fanatical with game film study. He gets everybody in the right spot and makes some plays due to his intelligence. He started some games last year but then went to the bench when a better talent returned. The Packers need his brain alongside Burnett but they also need more talent to go along with the smarts. Major Wright struggled mentally and physically. I think they view a dependable hard working bookworm...so to speek.....a step up from Major Wright.

P.S......I read up on him some before FA...and also listened to NFL Network when they interviewed some Giants guys on what Chicago is getting in Mundy

NOT SO FAST ON REVIS

its been a weird day, my head hurts

yea !

Ted was really busy today...wait did anyone think to awaken him from his looooong slumber.

Ted ! Ted !! Wake up man...your missing all the Free Agency action again today and you've got a boatload of money you can spend on some quality addition to take some heat off your draft.

What's that Ted?

Ohh I thought you mumbled something.....OK ..... I understand Ted .....

You were just yawning.

I agree... why does Capers keep doing the same thing over and over, lol...

[Tony Oday]

Jared Allen. Vet leadership to train Jones.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Luckily for the Jets, Rodger Saffold failed his physical.

Eric Decker goes to the Jets. What a nasty downgrade at QB for him. His career is all downhill from here. One less suitor for James Jones perhaps?

[woodbuck27]

If TT is going to sit on his checkbook as far as other free agents as usual, I would just as soon see him pay Jones and EDS.

Both ....moves I hoped that TT would make.

So you know where that likely ends up!?

[woodbuck27]

That's laughable.

If Revis decides he wants to be there, he can make it happen, but at the expense of some of his take home. If he thinks he can haul in the same money as a starting QB AND be on a winning team, i.e. no big holes anywhere, he's delusional. Which he might be.

Something made that happen.

The Pat's needed to make a bold move at CB.

Pete Dougherty @PeteDougherty 34s
League source confirms @mneal96 has re-signed with Packers

Good that's one of the UFA's I hoped that TT would sign.

my list was short:

Sam Shields (done) Mike Neal (done) , CJ Wilson, James Jones and Evan Dietrich-Smith.


GO PACK GO !

[woodbuck27]

True, scouts make mistakes. However, I'm not sold on the idea that Verner is the consensus better player in the eyes of personnel people. I've seen enough quotes about "buyer beware" on him. Most of these FAs are talked about like the are studs and most turn out to be disappointments. We know what we have with Shields (which is good and hopefully gets better). Also, the deal that Shields signed is team friendly. I could careless about what the headline reads on the total years and salary. He got a backloaded deal with a relatively low amount of guaranteed money. He'll be on the team for two years. If he morphs into an elite player or the cap goes up a lot, then his salary won't be so bad. Otherwise, he can be cut with minimal damage.

Yes.

[woodbuck27]

Addition through subtraction through (Bears') addition.

"Only" a one year deal with terms unavailable now.
