    Oh heaven forbid, a media puke who doesn't believe the shit he spews? I thought all of them were icons of wonderfulness for the "ya'all crowd" in here.

      Who said they thought the media was wonderful? Oh that's right, nobody. Don't let facts get in the way of making shit up to claim others are stupid while you think you're smarter.

            run pMc, yes I think I and you and a solid majority of the posters in hear are smarter than the huge majority of those media pukes,

            That's true in general and especially when it comes to commenting on what's good and bad for the Packers.

            I hear Bakhtiari had or will have his 4th surgery now? Unfortunate for him that it was needed.

              Why would he. His salary is locked in this season for anything other than him retiring I believe.

                Bahktiari had his knee scoped last week, word is he'll need another operation to repair cartilage in his knee. That would be 5 operations on the same knee in 3 years. This keeps up and he'll be walking with a cane at age 40.

                I haven't heard of a press conference, but I did hear MLF say that he was going to let DB speak for himself regarding all the reporter's questions. I think MLF is sick of being asked about Bakhtiari every day, but I also think he kind of brought some of it on himself with all the cloak-and-dagger nonsense.

                As much as I think DB is a great LT, I'm skeptical of his availability now and in the future. Given his cap hit, it will be a Rubik's cube of maneuvering to keep him, and I suspect Gute and Co are ready to move on.

                  He will never play another snap with Green Bay.

                    Yes, this is correct. If you are on the roster for the 1st game your contract for that year is guaranteed.

                    That is why some free agents don’t get signed to the roster until after week 1. Then the contract is paid out week by week. If you get cut, they don’t pay you.

                    This why guaranteed money and signing bonuses in contracts are so important. If you sign a contract with no guaranteed money, you don’t get paid for any year after you get cut.
                    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

                      If you have four accrued seasons of experience. An accrued season is six games on active/inactive/injured reserve/PUP during that season.

                      Bahk clearly has that Vested Veteran status, but just wanted to clarify that it's not automatic for everyone.

                        they also converted $15M of his salary to bonus this year, so he's been paid that already.

                        There is NO benefit to the cap if you cut him this year. The offseason is a different story, when he counts $40M against the cap but is due for about another $19M. They can get about $21M cap savings cutting him then.

                        Nobody is going to trade for him. Teams aren't going to give up a draft pick for a guy who is (at best) week-to-week the entire season, and he might not pass a physical anyway.

                          That about sums it up. He's very, very likely going to be cut this offseason. Would he come back to GB for a shot at a comeback on a minimum salary? It's hard to imagine Green Bay going in that direction. But you never know. For Bakh, it's about comfort level. Sure, he could sign a minimum contract elsewhere, but it'd be a whole new situation for him. The only place I can imagine him going would be this east coast team with a QB rehabbing from a major injury and wanting one more shot at a SB with a good friend by his side.

                            I think Bakhtiari will retire. He needs to start thinking what life will be like at 40 if he keeps playing football on a wrecked knee. He'd be a fool to push it, and he doesn't strike me as a fool.

                              He's not a fool, no. But he may be thinking he still wants to play, and what better story than a comeback next year with his good buddy Rodgers in NY? One more shot at redemption and a Super Bowl.

                                IDK, Metlife stadium is FieldTurf. He hates turf and it would be tough to play 10+ games on turf for him. If it did happen, I could see him sign there, play a game or two and hang it up. Or maybe he'd wait until midseason to sign with a team.
                                Honestly, I think he's done. He's been a great LT for GB and I wish his knee was holding up this year, but sometimes the mind wants the body to do something it just can't. He's got plenty of money, maybe it's time.

                                With a young team in an evaluation season, there probably isn't a place for him long term on the roster anyway.
