23% of the cap tied up in 2 players.

We better pray that we find a bunch of players that can play for minimum if we want to have a chance.

Why are teams like the 49ers, Seahawks passing us by. Because they have good QBs who are not getting paid. As long as we tie up so much of the cap in a few players we will never get to where we were before Rodgers and Clay got paid.

We are still in a better place than we would be without paying. Unless you think we can draft a top 5 QB every few years and let ours walk then complaining about it doesn't do any good.

Plenty of cash to sign Brian Orakpo. :)

LOLB - Clay Matthews III
ROLB - Brian Orakpo

Suddenly the Packers have a Pro Bowl quartet in the secondary.

The back end has to get better. Not one INT all year and very little support in the middle or deep routes has to stop.

Not a knock on them for getting paid, just the reality of our situation. I had talking a couple years ago that our best chance for another SB was before Rodgers, Matthews and Raji at that time came due for contracts and that if we were ever going to make a splash in FA that would have been the time.

Now we are much more dependent on street FA, and rookie contract players.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Martha Careful (12-Mar) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Can't make him play.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Aaron Rodgers is choosing between Steelers and Giants. The Vikings are officially out on him, per RapSheet

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Current cap space 29.6 million.

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

Mucky Tundra (12-Mar) : beast, this is news to me! Tell me more about these, "draft picks." They seem mighty mysterious! 😉

beast (12-Mar) : Yes, the Ravens have draft picks

dfosterf (12-Mar) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (12-Mar) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (11-Mar) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (11-Mar) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Er getting traded twice like that
