How did those upgrades work for Denver last year? The Packers were 3 minutes from the SB last year, and with the exception of the unknown at cb, have retained all the key pieces of that roster.

When did Ted pick up peppers, guion, linsley, adams, haha, or r.rodgers who all made appreciable contributions to last year's team?

The seahawks just dropped a starting C and a 1st round pick for a TE who can't block on a run-first team and you're anointing them NFC champs already?

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Am I the only one who thinks Richard Rodgers can be a star in this league?

I'm not saying it couldn't help their team, maybe it'll be huge for them, I don't know. However, as I said in my post, the Packers added about 6 significant difference makers after the first week of the 2014 free agency season which helped carry them to within 3 minutes of the Super Bowl. This is 1 move by the Saints and we have no idea who the Packers will add the next few months. No need to crown anyone yet. Hell, the Packers and Seahawks looked like they wouldn't meet in the 2014 NFCCG at points during the season last year.

I wonder how many people realize that Unger was hurt and only played in 6 games last year. So the replacement was there for the Seahawks so basically they gave up the #31 pick for a Pro Bowl TE.

I would make that trade every time.

Super Bowl teams upgrade their teams by addition not by staying stagment.

You do realize Cobb is the #1 rated wr free agent right?

Seahawks and Cowboys then us and Arizona

Super Bowl teams upgrade their teams by addition not by staying stagment.

So lets take a look so far

The 2 time NFC Champs
Lose a CB
Lose a Center that missed 10 games last year

They sign an above average CB from Philly
And bring in a top 2 TE to help their offense.

The Packers
Resign Cobb
Resign the whale
Resign a backup lineman in Barclay

Lose 2 NT
Lose 2 ILB
Lose 2 CBs

Hmmm your right the Packers have the best of it so far lol

Zero2Cool (8h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (11h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (11h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (12h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (12h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (13h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (13h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (13h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (13h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (13h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (13h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (13h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (13h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (13h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (13h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (15h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (15h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (15h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
