JSO Silverstein wrap-up: http://www.jsonline.com/story/sports...kers/98944480/
1. Perry and Packers meeting today to look at deal. Slightly non-committal but everyone seems to agree this meeting doesn't happen today if they don't have general agreement on terms. Spoon says likely north of $10 mil per year, but under Matthews $13.2 mpy. Perry and Sheard were last two pass rushers available. So Perry played this very well.
If its a five year deal, he is going to get north of $20 million of bonus/guarantee.
2. Packers have shown only slight interest in retaining Hyde. Have not committed to matching deals he gets.
3. Says Packers don't seem willing to sign Lang at the price he is going to get.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment

I wonder what it would cost to get Connor Barwin. Matthews, Perry, and Barwin would be an intriguing trio of OLBs to rotate. Matthews could play inside when they wanted to get all three pass rushers on the field."There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted ThompsonComment

1. Perry was the must sign of the free agent season for the Packers. Even with his injury history, we could not afford to lose his QB pressures or his run contain.Originally posted by pbmax View Post
2. Light interest in Hyde doesn't surprise me. I think the Packers view him as a safety and they have up and comers at that position. Although he made some plays in the regular season and the playoffs as a corner, his lack of speed was evident. He functions as a barely adequate slot corner and rarely was used on the outside, even when we had no CBs available. I think his most valuable role is as a punt returner. He might be the best we have.
3. Again, this does not surprise me. Lang is a free agent during a year in which the draft class is weak in OL and the salary cap jumped precipitously. He will be highly sought after and the Packers will not pay more than $10 million per year for a guard. In their minds, they proved last year that they would not skip a beat on offense, even after releasing a Pro Bowl guard. They would rather have the draft pick as compensation. It wouldn't surprise me if Barclay is the starting RG next year. My guess is Tretter will also be highly valued and will leave in free agency. We had a luxury with 2 starting centers and he will start at C for someone else. They will not move Bulaga who played at a pro bowl level last year and Spriggs is not and will never be a guard.
The big question for me is Jones. I think we need him and will try to re-sign him. With Perry off the board, his value has got to be higher.Comment

Good Signing - if Perry plays like he should. The fairly large bonus which keeps the cap number down tells me maybe Ted will sign something more - hopefully.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

Just know the fairly large bonus in my post is completely my speculation.

Now Thompson is overpaying for his own players, instead of just paying for his own players. That is too much money for Perry.Comment

is he? the market is what it is. it had to be done regardless. the object is to get better after all. can't take a step back at ANY defensive position.Originally posted by Deputy Nutz View Post

with the cap being what it is and the fact that perry is one of the best free agents this year, top 15 anyway, im not suprised, and he is a better deal than cobb imoOriginally posted by Deputy Nutz View PostAll tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.
