Multiple sources say Packers to re-sign RT Bryan Bulaga· Page 4

I believe 7m a year is closer to his value than the 10m they paid out to Cobb was to his, and seeing some of the other RT contracts this FA it is far from unreasonable. Granted I’m not that comfortable with his injury history, however a contract can always be made to safeguard your cap from that sort of thing. So just like Cobbs contract the structure, incentives, etc tells us more than the face value. 7m, get it done, but try to stay at 3 or 4 years.

The truth is if we lose Bulaga we don't have his replacement on the roster and even if we draft a guy, lineman take a couple years to develop so its going to suck for atleast a year.

5 years/35 mil is fair enough, get it done Ted.

People also need to get over accepting exorbitant numbers other teams pay as justification for overpaying our guys. Albert Haynesworth and Suh don't mean its fine to pay Raji 15 million now.

Linsley was pretty good as a rookie, yes. Tretter's injury may have ended up being the best thing that happened to the line last year, because it brought Linsley skills to bear earlier than expected.

Bahktiari? Am I truly the only one who thinks the jury is still out? Yes, he was better last year. IMO, he's still not where I'd like a starting LT to be.

I advocate high draft choices for the OL every year. But not because I expect the high draft picks to jump right in and be where I want the Packers OL starters to be. Because I think that the Packer line is not good enough yet and I think the high draft choice will make them better than they are.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Tretter didn't fail to keep the C position, he lost it

As for Barclay's contract, that's presumptive

So, I read he's coming back...wow.

Better be NOWHERE near 7 million but I read it might be more. Unreal.

Tretter had a freak injury... a fumble drill injury in an OTA if memory serves. Bad luck.

That's simple making excuses to fit your argument... both guys had two injuries both guys had a freak injury.
But Tretter's injuries are excusable to you and Bulaga injuries aren't simple because it fits your argument.

No... Rodgers won the Super Bowl with Clifton and Bulaga starting... and Newhouse sitting on the bench the whole year... and that kind of put more wind in my sails because it shows your don't completely know what you're taking about and just trying to say stuff to make your opinion stick.

Tretter did have a freak ACCIDENT. It wasn't even real football...doing a drill the team doesn't even do anymore. FREAK event. Not Bulaga... he's weak. IR candidate...and everyone is voting BB.

Again, please reply with Rodgers numbers with Marshall Newhouse at T. That will be fun.
