With the NFL rumor mill ablaze during the combine, multiple sources have reported/claimed/inferred/guessed/made up/straight up fabricated news that Greg Jennings was a candidate for the franchise tag (Jennings did not receive the tag after all that) and that the Packers were getting sick of Jermichael Finley's off the field antics and on the field inconsistency [...]

I think Option 2 with Jermichael Finley playing out his contract and MAYBE Greg Jennings resigns with the Packers. I just doubt the latter happening. I could see the Packers extending Finley, ultimately reducing his cap hit to 2013 though.

I like Option 4, where Jennings sadly walks, and Finley is released. We won a Super Bowl WITHOUT Finley... I understand his intangibles of size and speed. I just happen to think his route running is very sub par, his blocking stinks, and his hands are not sure. That, and he's been kind of a head case here in GB. And, we pay top dollar for that. Blows my mind.

I would much rather spend these dollars on proven talent that will better other areas of our team. Last I checked, we have a ton of holes to fill. LT, C, RB, DE, NT, ILB, OLB, S. Can't fill all of those needs in the draft alone. Spend those dollars on players available in FA.

I haven't started looking at who might be available at WR through FA, but to me I think we should be able to find somebody decent. Maybe this is bad business for the Agent who wants to be paid now, but who wouldn't want one of the players that they represent to go play with Rodgers and potentially boost their stats for a bigger pay-day down the road?

Zero2Cool (7h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (11h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (13h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (16h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (17h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it
TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score
