Packers 2016 Offseason

[Cheesehead Craig]

Can the Pack just sign Trevathan and get it over with?

[Patler]

I know Malumba has dealt with injury, but is there anything else there that was holding him back? He looked like he was a rising talent and now he might be gone. I know that kind of development is not out of the ordinary; I just thought he would stick. I wonder what happened in his case.

I could be wrong, but I think the only time he really showed anything was a couple preseason games his rookie year. I don't think he has done much since then.

Do we have room to do something like this with about 19.5 mil left against the cap after Crosby was signed...

PACKERS
Free Agents
Danny Trevathan - ILB
Matt Forte - TE
Jared Cook - TE

Our Own Free Agents still unsighed...
Nick Perry - OLB
John Kuhn - FB

Potential Draft Rookies
Round 1-OT TAYLOR DECKER
Round 2-DT SHELDON DAY
Round 3 - TE AUSTIN HOOPER
Round 4 - RB C.J. PROSISE
Round 4 - OT JOE HAEG
Round 4 - S MILES KILLEBREW
Round 5 - ILB JOSH FORREST
Round 6 - OLB TRAVIS FEENEY
Round 7 - DT VINCENT VALENTINE

[Patler]

RFA tenders for guys like Mulumba and Taylor aren't really in the cards. The lowest tender is about $1.5M. Minimum salary for a 4th year player is half that. Is either one worth 2x the minimum salary? *Is any other team going to pay them much more than minimum? I doubt it.

I would not be surprised to see either or both resigned by the Packers at something up to about $1M, but probably closer to $800,000. Or, maybe a two year contract at minimum salaries, and a signing bonus of $100,000 - $200,000.

Mulumba maybe. Taylor no.

[run pMc]

Mulumba maybe. Taylor no.

I thought Taylor played ok when he came off the bench this year? I'm guessing they sign him for something, but agree offering them a tender isn't really smart since they can be signed for less, plus as UDFA there would be no comp if they signed elsewhere. Mulumba might be done here; depends on what happens with Neal/Perry.

Here's your Model:

What's that Draft Class going to cost the CAP?

Start there and work backwards to all FA retentions and additions.

[Patler]

Mulumba maybe. Taylor no.

Mulumba was inactive for 9 the last 10 games. I think his time in GB is probably over, unless neither Neal or Perry comes back.

I don't think Matt Forte is the answer to the TE question!

[jklowan]

I don't think Matt Forte is the answer to the TE question!

Yeah I meant RB there

[Smidgeon]

Forte isn't the answer there either.

The #Colts released QB Josh Freeman, and with Matt Hasselbeck not returning, they now need a backup for Andrew Luck.
