I think he is under rated. Maybe not by fans but he is never mentioned by the media.

We definitely have to keep him don't we? I hope Ted Thompson resigns him.

Is a 3-4 DE really media worthy, by comparison with the rest of the team?

No they are not glamorized. But they are the most important part ofthe defense. Ted Thompson has said more than once that god made only so many 300+ men. He has shown an affinity to keep/draft big men. I hope Jenkins can realize this and hang in there I'm positive he is going to get paid, just ask Rodgers, driver, Jennings, Woodson or any of the core vets over the last few years.

They could ask President Obama for it. He likes giving out free money.

How is it so high this year? Is it just how the deals line up this year? A couple years ago they were 28th in the league. Regardless I'm glad Ted Thompson is starting to loosen his death grip on the Packers change purse.

Front loading contracts in an uncapped year. Collins' and Pickett's cap hits are are pretty big this year, if I recall correctly. Chillar's might be, as well. I asume that the same goes for the restructured contracts of some of our guys.

I don't know if Jenkins will be resigned. The point he makes himself is a very valid one. A lot of young guys are coming in. Next to that, we can get Jolly back a bit cheaper next year after getting suspended this year.

Not that Jolly's anywhere close to Jenkins, but still.

I'd call him the 2nd best player on our defense right now and I'd like to keep him, but a talented player like that, who has a couple of years left and can play anything from 3-4 DE, to 4-3 DE and 4-3 UT isn't going to come cheap.

At some point, we'll have to let some guys go. Make some hard choices. I'm a little iffy on letting Cullen go, since you see what it did to that Patriots line when they traded away Seymour, but I could definitely see it happen.

Gotta lock up Cullen, huge and underrated piece of this defense. Ted has done a good job locking up the core of this team, lets hope it continues.

So true. All I know is he has proven to be a valuable member of the team and shows no sighs of slowing down in the near future. DEs like this are definately what makes the 3-4 such an effective defense.
