Most of the difference making safeties were gone after day 2. There might still be some good situational guys out there, though. I'll have to check. I see this need being filled through the draft.

This is way off the wall, and I have said myself we don't need a wide receiver. However, I read the Eagles would trade DeSean Jackson cheap - asking a third round pick, but maybe accepting even less. He would make about $10 million, but he is a damn good player, and apparently we could afford him. I very much doubt it will happen, though.

Seriously though, for a third rounder the Panthers had better be all over that one.

I dunno, Chris Clemons ?

That's three new starters on defense, including Peppers. That's not a bad off-season.

What about Ryan Clark, yes it would be a 1 or 2 year deal but he knows the 3-4 of Lebeau and could be a teacher on the field.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Flynn, Kuhn, and maybe Francois could all be joining the team soon.
Packers need a veteran backup at QB.

Packers just flat out NEED John Kuhn because he is one of a kind and showed no signs of slowing down.

Francois is doubtful, but he is still out there as far as I know and Ted likes his guys.

Looks like Pickett, Wilson, Wallace, and K. Bell are not going to be invited back.

2 big ? are

Johnny Jolly if healthy, I hope Ted brings him back

Then there is always Finley can he play? Will he be back?

EDIT: Also let's remember there's the little task of extending Jordy nelson and Randall Cobb, two guys, imho, I wouldn't want to see hit the Free Agency Market next year.

Packers still have 17mil+ but still have to take care of a few more players, not as much as it looks.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
