I haven’t heard much about the free agent class at linebacker. Anybody have any insight, or random, unsupported, yet firmly held opinions on this topic?

Per sources, Packers have re-signed TE Tyler Davis, the backup/special teams ace who tore his ACL in the preseason last year. He’s expected to be ready for the start of training camp, if not sooner.
Packers ST coordinator Rich Bisaccia and coach Matt LaFleur love Davis.I can't run no more

Packers expected to sign Josh Jacobs… backup to Jones or hedge if he doesn’t restructure?The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

Sounds like a good tandem. Jones is always on a pitch count, and Jacobs is a guy who is similar to Jones in style.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment

Looking like it's happening. Jacobs and Aaron Jones would be quite a backfield duo, assuming they keep Jones.

Good-bye and good luck, AJ. Wish you the best with your new team.
EDit: I may have spoken too soon. I just looked up some numbers, and this dude made $11M last year. They're not adding that kind of payroll to back up Jones; I think they're replacing him.Comment

They're not looking for a backup to Jones. They're looking for a tandem.Originally posted by Frozen Tundra View PostI can't run no more

WR's and TE's on rookie contracts, I'm no capologist, but I think they've got room.Originally posted by Frozen Tundra View PostComment

If the Packers are making this move, they have already talked with Jones. I would expect he is willing to take a pay cut and get a deal that ensures he retires a Packer. The tandem role would actually extend Jones’ career, and provide coverage if either guy gets dinged.
Jones showed the value of a RB to this offense last year. The team can’t afford to not have a capable full service back available at all times.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment
