Much speculation now that Flynn is going to get tagged after this signing. Tom Silverstein blowing up twitter right now.

Hes already talking about clearing cap space in order to tag him. cutting clifton and driver puts up 10.59mill in cap room, or we could rework their contracts instead.

Well I am 0-1, I really thought he would be gone.

Good job Ted, 2 yr deal, doesn't break the bank, time to start dealin' with Wells.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I want the tag used on Flynn, which will give us a trade up in the first round to get our pass rusher. And if that costs us Clifton and Driver, so be it. They both have rings and long careers, oh and by the way neither has a financial concern for the rest of their lives. If they want to risk further injury to their bodies, we'll watch them do it on another team.

I thought there were several articles that clearly stated how and why using any tag on Matt Flynn would be foolish? Why do we continue bringing it up? It's not going to happen, unless a team tampers and says they want him and will make a trade for him. I just don't see how you put yourself on the hook for $14 million on a backup QB. It's foolish and Ted Thompson just does not operate like that.

Here's Mike Florio's reasons for potentially tagging Matt Flynn. (i dont buy it)

There are two factors that nevertheless could nudge the Packers toward doing it. First, with former Green Bay offensive coordinator Joe Philbin now the head coach in Miami, the Packers know (or at least should know) whether Philbin truly wants Flynn. If he does, the two teams should be able to work out a trade. (The Dolphins, after all, love to devote second-round picks on quarterbacks.) Second, tagging him and trading him to the Dolphins would keep him away from one of the NFC teams, like the Seahawks or the Redskins.

Jermichael Finley - I didn't much care if he stayed or signed elsewhere. I think the Packers offense is better with him on the field. I read somewhere (Jason Wilde?) that his blocking improved.
