NFL or the Players wanted to retain the 2010 rules for 2011 while they continue to hammer out a new deal. I think it was the Players who wanted it, but the Owners felt they were being shafted and thus opted out of the "current" CBA.

The 2010-11 rules were less player friendly as vets with 4 and 5 years under their belts were no longer UFAs.

I doubt the players want the 2010-11 season rules. I bet Thompson and the Packers front office would love them. Only Jenkins and the RFAs they didn't tendered (plus guys they cut) would be UFAs. The rest of the FAs would be RFAs.

I'm sorry, I just don't see James Jones in Green Bay's future, and I'm sure my buddy Dr. Death Nonstop will agree with me on this. First of all, in the article he thinks of himself as a starter - and will want starter money with his next contract (that isn't going to happen). Secondly, I don't think Jones has outplayed Jorde Nelson in any way. When DD retires, Nelson will be our #2. The third thing is the drafting of Cobb which gives us some dynamics that Jones doesn't. And the fourth reason I think Jones is gone is the huge future money that will be going to guys like Raji, Matthews, Finley, Sitton, Shields and possibly Mike Neal when he puts it all together.

The receiving corp is our bread and butter no doubt, but I don't think we've ever had a problem in the modern era of replacing any of these guys - especially now when we have such a marksman at QB. I think James Jones has a great future ahead of him, but I would be shocked if it was in Green Bay.

All James has to do is quit dropping the ball(catches and fumbles) and he will be a very good receiver. I don't see him staying with the Packers either.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I don't care how "Steady" Jones may or may not be in the future, or how "Steady" he may or may not have been in the past. The fact that I am now forced to cringe every time I see him getting thrown to is reason enough for me to want him gone. I hate cringing.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

I think he is a favorable match up versus any 3rd or 4th CB in the league which really helps the passing game. I wouldn't mind seeing him back but I don't think it will happen. Not for the long term anyway.

I was harsh on Jordy last year. I was wrong, and I'm glad I was wrong. 🙂

Also it could just be my memory but Driver seems to be dropping more than he normally does lately.
