Raji back for 1-year deal

[Carolina_Packer]

http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/296020101.html This is encouraging news. His trainer said in the article he back squatted 1,100 lbs. for three sets. That's pretty good, right? Bench pressing 450, shoulder pressing 335.

I just started lifting again. It's been a long while and I'm squatting 135 and benching 165. Embarrassing.

We think of you more as a point guard or softball rover than NT.

I am not Charles Atlas or Mark McGwire, but shouldn't you avoid going WAY past parallel on a squat?

“It’s so phenomenal," Carini said. "His hip strength — the size of his thighs — he’s taking these weights but he’s going way, way past parallel which means his hips are going way below his kneecap. And he’s just powering straight up. No hesitation. It’s just phenomenal.”

Only if you wish to avoid a complete colon blowout.

I'm glad he's back... think with the new look he could be very effective. He has a lot to prove now though.

Has dunderdummy been fired yet??

According to @RapSheet, B.J. Raji's one-year deal worth $3.5 million. Can earn up to $4 million, likely to be earned value of last yr's deal

This one doesn't make much sense:

BJ Raji received a $1.15 million base, 500k signing bonus, $100k workout bonus on one year deal he signed with #Packers

But the devil in the details is probably his game day roster bonus, which WesHod says qualified as a NOT Likely to Be Earned incentive (because of his injury and season on IR last year) but could definitely come into play.

Haven't see dollar figures on that.
