Huge win for Packers. They get more cap space and let go of a player they aren't utilizing. Lions snagged him up and cut Packers killer Theo Riddick in the process! Hell yeh!!

3. He signed for $4mm less, clearly he was overpaid.

Also NFL.com is reporting Daniels got more money!

Daniels and the Detroit Lions agreed to a one-year, $9.1 million contract with $7.8 million guaranteed, sources told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport. The team confirmed the news Saturday.

Daniels was slated to make $8.1 million in 2019, so his move to the Lions essentially comes with a $1 million raise.

LaFleur usually likes having a good pass catching for 3rd down, so I might bring Riddick in look as he's been very good in the passing game. Though he wouldn't be guaranteed a spot.

So if he is getting 9.1 from the lions then he probably is getting away with 1 million more than he would have got here. But the lions cap hit is 1+M less than what GB's was.

That's why I keep telling people to stop following the cap, it's accounting, and unless you're used to accounting, and the accounting system, then it's confusing and screws people's math up.

Follow the money!, because the money is less confusing and the accounting is nothing more than a middle man (well, middle system) that's following the money as well. So if you simply follow the money you have less work to do to the correct answer and less confusion.

I've got to side with go.pack.go on this.

That's a lot of bad karma, the Packers throwing a Nun to the Lions...

How so? The guy talked a better game than he played.

Daniels was like Lang, when healthy, they can still play at the elite level.... they're just not staying healthy as often as they've gotten older... and I still think this is more about creating cap room and opportunities for the young talented players with potential that Gute thinks will be able to step up if given the room to step into a larger role.

The veteran defensive interior had a down year last season by his standards, producing an overall grade of 71.3 and playing just 419 snaps after sustaining a season-ending foot injury against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11. While Daniels was lackluster in some respects, finishing five of his 10 games with a run-defense grade under 60.0, he was still one of the league’s best pass-rushers last season. He finished with a 78.5 pass-rush grade and pass-rushing productivity of 7.3, which rank ninth and sixth among qualifying interior defensive linemen, respectively. His 17.4% pass-rush win rate when shaded or head up on the guards ranked sixth among qualifiers, as well.

Daniels was also one of the league’s best when the pressure was at its highest, utterly dominating as a pass-rusher in the fourth quarter. His pass-rush win percentage of 21.2% in the fourth quarter was the third-highest among DIs with at least 30 pass-rush attempts in the fourth quarter last year. Daniels also produced a pass-rush grade of 76.6 in the fourth quarter, which was the 12th-highest mark among qualifiers at his position.

The veteran defensive tackle has consistently anchored the defensive line at a high level for multiple seasons, generating the eighth-best pass-rush grade either head up or shaded on the guards in the last four seasons at 86.3. His pass-rush win rate of 14.4% from that alignment ranks sixth among qualifiers, as well. Daniels has been a model of consistency, producing an overall grade of 70.0 or higher in six of his seven seasons and a pass-rush grade of 70.0 or higher in his last four seasons. He has also been a plus run-defender, grading at 75.0 or above in five of his seven seasons.
