Packers' Off Season Moves and 2017 Roster

[Teamcheez1]

Letroy Guion now suspended for the first 4 games of 2017 season. We may need even more help on defense now if we decide to jettison him.

I missed what he did this time?

Marvelous.

At least this time it was production adjacent.

#Packers tendered 3-technique Christian Ringo, according to a source. Ringo, a former 6th-round pick, was an exclusive rights free agent.

Charles Johnson re-signing in Carolina just takes away one more option from a team that wants a veteran pass-rusher. High demand low supply.

As @AaronNagler pointed out, Guion is due $400,000 roster bonus on third day of league year. If #Packers don’t pay it, he’s a free agent.

GONNA KNOW SOON WHAT THEY THINK

Meanwhile, the Packers gave linebacker Joe Thomas and receiver Geronimo Allison their exclusive-rights free-agent tenders, according to a league source. Also tendered, according to Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, is defensive tackle Christian Ringo. A deal with another exclusive-rights free-agent, punter Jacob Schum, was struck last week, according to ESPN.com’s Rob Demovsky.

Cook isn't signing for less than this.

Jack Doyle's deal with the Colts: Three years, $19 million base value with another $2 million in incentives, source says.

Exactly this. Bring him and Tramon in! We're getting the band back together! Living in the past.

BETH....what can I do?

Are you sure? Doyle had a good year, and I assume he's considerably younger than Cook.

2016
59 catches on 75 targets, 584 yards, 9.9 ypc and 5 TD for Doyle

30 of 51, 377 yes, 12.6 ypc and 1 TD for Cook.


Doyle is younger, not sure he is more effective. Used better as Red Zone target though. With age, maybe this is the price?

Cook will be 30 in April. Doyle will be 27 in May. That makes a difference to NFL GMs. I know Cook has been healthy throughout his career, but he had a couple of injuries this past season. GMs are wary of guys about to turn 30 who are showing signs of breaking down.

[Teamcheez1]

I see a lot of surprise cuts (or not) around the NFL today.

Will the Packers cut anybody unexpectedly over the next couple of weeks?

Foot injuries freak me out. I grew up thinking every year Bill Walton would return to play but he was an old fat guy before his foot finally healed enough to play backup for the Celtics.

Jets reported to be going big on offer to Nick Perry.

If there is one team I would NOT trust to evaluate personnel (even defensive side) its the Jets.

Packers have signed their punter!
