DAVANTE ADAMS---THE FRESNO FREAK

[Bretsky]

My apologies to the local Fresno guy in Madtown. I was completely wrong on Devante Adams and I think he's the real deal.

BUT.........WHAT IS THIS GUY WORTH ?

Scary thought...but he's an UFA after this year.....We're paying Cobb and Jordy good salaries....Is Adams Next, and can TT afford to give money like that to 3 WR's ?

And does Aaron Rodgers make him better than h really is, or is he the real deal regardless of where he goes ? Often he's hardly open, but AROD puts him I a position to make plays....AKA..the game winner last week

THE POLL WILL ASK WHAT DO YOU DEVANTE ADAMS IS WORTH;

and in the body please post what you think Ted will do with our WR position next year.

PLEASE POST YOUR VOTE IN HERE...AND PREDICT WHAT GB DOES

[Bretsky]

I think Adams deserves in between 9-13 MIL/year and signs back with GB at the higher end of that range.

I'm really unsure what GB does but I can't see them paying all 3 and my guess is they part with Cobb

[Joemailman]

I said 9-13. 11 million per year puts him in the top 10-15. Cobb's and Jordy's contracts end after the 2018 season. TT will sign Adams to an extension, with the big money not kicking in until 2019. At that point, Jordy and Cobb will either be gone or earning a lower salary. My guess is TT will let Cobb leave. Geronimo Allison makes him dispensable. He will sign Jordy for a couple more years and draft a WR in the 2nd round in 2018.

This is going to be the most interesting story of the off-season. I don't think they would like Adams to leave but I think he'll price himself out of GB, and ultimately bust wherever he goes.

If you can only have one next year, do you pick Adams or Jordy? I pick Adams based on age but I don't think either is a star.

[pbmax]

Pay the man.

Also need to desperately restock the WR position.

Jordy is aging like he has a condition.

[hoosier]

Agree with 9-13 and that the position needs restocking. I don't know if Allison makes Cobb redundant because they have very different skill sets. If Cobb were willing to re-sign for a modest amount I could see him staying beyond 2018. Not sure what Allison's ceiling is, but TT needs to find someone in the Jennings/Nelson mold, someone who bring the explosive play back to the passing game.

[smuggler]

Open market is around $11M per year. I think he's worth about $8M per if you take Rodgers out of the equation. But, contracts are not made in that way. He'll get his money here in GB.

[Harlan Huckleby]

This is like a slave auction.

[smuggler]

Except in this case, the slave owns the auctioneer (his agent), and is selling himself. Perhaps more like indentured servitude, yes?

[mraynrand]

This is like a slave auction.

holy hell

[RashanGary]

I think packers will sign him within the next couple weeks.

[red]

he deserves the same kind of money jordy and cobb got imo, if not a bit more with the cap going up

those 2 both got around 10 per year

so, if that happens, we will have 3 of the top 20 highest paid WR's in the nfl

someone has to go, and i don't think its the young guy just hitting his potential

and then again, we come back to the same question. is he a legit #1 WR because that is legit #1 money. we greatly overpaid cobb and thats going to bite us in the ass with the adams contract

what no one on here is talking about (at least i haven't seen it), was the bullet we dodged after adams scored the TD

i cringed when i saw it live

adams fired the ball into the stands, and should have been flagged, he was fined for throwing the ball after the game. a 15 yard penalty on the kickoff would have made things a lot more uncomfortable

yeah it was an emotional momnet and a huge play, but you gotta be smarter there

I don't think using the ball as a prop in a celebration (might be the only one) is a penalty anymore.

Just a fine for throwing away team/league property and taking a risk of poking Grandma's eye out.
