B.J. Raji’s agent has rejected a long-term contract offer from the Green Bay Packers, which leaves his future up in the air.

I hope that number is just his agent trying to inflate future fa offers because thats way to steep for someone who isnt a playmaker. Id rather pay that much to shields or daniels. What raji brings to the defense is replaceable imo. Im not against bringing him back but I was thinking fo about half that max

8 mil a year seems like a great deal for raji, but there is plenty of time after the season to accept or reject.
I hate agents, but it is their job to get the best contract for their clients, I can understand why he andRaji declined at this point.

I'm betting there are other offers to other players we haven't heard about yet.
Ted is doing his job, always trying to stay ahead of things,.

I do like this quote from Raji.

"That's a decision I have to make when the time comes," Raji said. "But for right now I'm a Packer, and what they ask me to do I'm going to do. That's what part of what being a team player is."
