They might franchise Jones, but that's still a lot to pay.

They'll draft a CB, WR, RB. Grab a long snapper. Oh yeah, DT. I'd bring back Sternberger and Josh Jackson, but we'll see what the team thinks. Lock down Tonyan.

I suspect the below players could be released due to the salary cap. Certainly, Rashan Gary is ready to supplement Preston Smith as starter. Funchess would be a WR4. I don’t think you pay that kind of money to a WR4. The other two are more complicated, but Lowry hasn’t played up to his contract and Kirksey is probably the No. 2 ILB at this point.

Devin Funchess
Dean Lowry
Christian Kirksey
Preston Smith

Wow I was just looking and I am surprised how so many teams are way over the salary cap. Green Bay is $31 Million over. And you look at the contracts and you see Rodgers and the smith Brothers make up 42% of our cap. Then you look at the teams with tons of cap space and you have your usual teams like the Jets and Jags but then you get the Colts and coming in at #6 with $28 million in cap space is the Tampa Bay Bucs. Once again this proves why Brady is the GOAT He takes $27 Million so they can get other players around him. Rodgers who believes the hype and is pissed people don't claim him as the Goat is on the books for $37.5 Million. Hard to build a team around him when you don't have money to spend.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

The Packers need to go all in this year.
Whatever they have to do, they have to do it.
After all, if the goal is not to win a Super Bowl, what’s the sense of even showing up?
They need to get the guys on defense to be able to beat the better teams. It’s obvious they need pieces that they don’t have right now.
Yes, it’s true that Rodgers eats up a lot of cap space. But without him, this team wouldn’t win 13 games and make the playoffs at all without him. We’d be the Lions or Bears.
They blew the shot this year, big time. And Rodgers has his chances in the 4th quarter. He was under constant pressure, and just like I said about Brady, pressure him and you can beat him. Tampa did that to our QB.

I'm better than any NFL General Manager! I got us to $185 million without blowing up the roster. And we have $2.9 million to spare, PLUS, the $8 million Bakhtiari freed up. That's $11 million to get the OL rebuilt and maybe add a free agent veteran WR who is ring chasing.

In this fantasy scenario I made just three moves and got us down to $188 million and we have 59 players. Sure, there's no RT, but like that will make the offense look any different!

Restructured Aaron Rodgers (Saved: $9,316,667)
Released Ricky Wagner (Saved: $4,250,000)
Released Preston Smith (Saved: $8,000,000)

beast (17h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? 🥺 I think that means you missed more than half of them 😢
dfosterf (20h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (22h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (22h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (22h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (22h) : Against tbd
dfosterf (22h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (22h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (22h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???
Zero2Cool (23h) : Ugh... kids these days!
dfosterf (23h) : I'm gonna go do some more mock draft hell instead 🤪
Zero2Cool (23h) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
dfosterf (23h) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (23h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Lengthy explanation at PFF if you click the link
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Kickoff rules officially changed.ngthy explan
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : lol

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Gutekunst said early stages of Jordan Love contract being discussed.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Shouldn't be penalized cuz official screwed up
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
