Good morning all,

Interesting to look at our current salary structure vs. the league this year.

http://www.theguardian.com/sport/interactive/2013/nfl-salaries-positions-2013-2014#green-bay-packers,green-bay-packers 

Observations/Opinions :-

1) Kuhn's cap number is high. Too high. As much as I love Kuhn, I think his time should come to an end.
2) Resigning Randall Cobb will probably have to come at the expense of someone like Finley or T. Williams.
3) Pickett will likely not be offered a new contract, considering the growing depth on our line, his age, salary etc.
4) Tramon Williams will have one year left after this, cutting him might make sense, as he is due to make close to $10 Million next season ($2 million dead cap)
5) Packers are absolute experts in ensuring there is little to no dead money every darn year

Tramon's money will go to Shields.

Pickett looks like he's got some left in the tank. He'll get another one year deal, maybe a little better than the veteran minimum.

Kuhn's done.

You throw enough shit at the wall and chances are some will stick.

Everyone knows who you want to stay and who you think needs to go.

Thankfully it isn't your job.

Let Ted do his job, prognosticate all you want but quit posting your opinions as facts!!!!

You don't have a clue who will or will not be here next year, so quit acting like you actually know something.

The packers are in the middle of a 3 way race for The Division and you are worried about next year?????

🙄 🙄 🙄

True BPF, about opinions as facts.

I like looking at things like this and speculating though, it's always interesting to see how our organisation spends it's money, on whom, and how injury/decline/cuts/bad personnel decisions hinder the ability to resign those players who are critical to the organisation.

Uncle Ted is the very best, I think he, Murphy et al know that we are good for 1, maybe 2 studs per draft that will need payment in years to come and therefore always ensures that

a) We are very prudent with free agents. One or two high priced duds and the domino effect can set you back for years.
b) We totally adhere to draft, develop and keep if good enough

I for one, absolutely agree with the philosophy, our depth is a testament to this - barring injury, there are very few positions where the Pack' are not deep.

QB - Nothing needs to be said
RB - Well and truly addressed
WR/TE - Plenty to go around, Boykin looks like a keeper
OL - Counting Bulaga, and we have a nucleus to really work with
DL - Well and truly addressed
LB - Perhaps needs one more body
CB'S - Young unit that is getting better and better
S's - Another young unit that is expected to mature
ST's - Masthay is so underrated, Crosby hot and cold, so so middle of the unit elsewhere
