Unpopular Opinion: We can't afford to resign David Baktiari, Mike Daniels and...· Page 2

I guess what I mean is we will have a lot more guys to worry about, not only baktiari. So in order to resign him we will probably have to let some other key guys go that we really won't want to. Big sacrifices coming up in the next few years I think, more than we are used to.

Not at all concerned about 2020 and beyond, more focused on 2019.

How many contracts is that reflecting in 2021? Is that counting Clark's 5th year option we just picked up? Also every guy we resign between then and now will eat into that total. That's resigning our own guys, signing two entire draft classes plus some free agents. I don't think we will have nearly 60 by the time 2021 actually comes around.

The Packers brass have to deal with these kinds of things every year, so I’m not overly worried.
In fact all teams have this kind of thing.
We are lucky that we have several good players that cause this kind of “problem”.

By the end of 2020 Rodgers will have room to pull a Brady and redo his deal freeing up some space. He will have a 14.7 million dollar salary that will be able to be converted to bonus or we could save 10 million by cutting him outright (22 million if we make him a post June first cut) Kizer ought to be ready by then.

I'm not too worried about being able to keep Clark or Bakhtiari. Like others have said, we have them under contract for 2 more years (and there is always the franchise tag after that for one of them) and I'm not to concerned about losing Daniels. Worry about 2019 and then start seeing what to do about the 20202 guys though I would like to see extensions for both before 2020 starts.

This year should show if he will be back to his pre-injury talent.
I sure am not in any hurry to see him leave.

I'm thinking Bulaga or Daniels will be signing elsewhere next year (maybe even both, at least if they're gonna go for very top dollar).

Note: I don't think Bulaga took top dollar last time, Bills reportedly offered more and I don't think it got to that stage where other teams where offering Daniels anything (yet).

Is Davante due to be resigned then as well? Rodgers will be making 35, both Smiths at 15+, Davante will need 20 and Bakhtiari and Clark probably will as well. That is a hell of a lot of money to devote to 6 guys.

Zero2Cool (1h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (17h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : 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.
