Corey Linsley is the next Green Bay Packers veteran in line to get a new deal.

According to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, the Packers are currently working on a new contract for their starting center. This the final year of Linsley current contract.

I'm very curious how this deal will compare to what Tretter got in Cleveland. JC's departure can only fully be judged by how much we give to Linsley. If it's a lot more then it was a huge mistake to let JC walk when we could've gotten what I feel was the better C for less. Even if you think Linsley is better, they aren't separated by much, and the money will really be the way to judge what we did with Tretter.

Did you ever hear of the concept that a college player is pulled from a draft board due to injury? Great players get drafted at lower to much lower rounds than if healthy, right?

Well, injury concerns harm a players value in FA too.

There's a huge difference between these 2 when one factors in relative health. BTW, when playing in the past Tretter was a better Center, the problem was he couldn't stay healthy. We'll see if injuries slow him and or shorten his career or if he can get through more than 7 games. The difference in dollars wont tell ya this! This is your anti-Ted bias on display again.

For 2018, priority FAs were :
#1 Taylor check
#2 Linsley check
