Do you want him on the Packers? What do think is fair trade offering?

The salary stuff, I don't even know how to start that!

I’d like to have him here, but I doubt they will pull the trigger.

I think he'd be a perfect fit for Pettine's defense, but I think they already addressed this with Z. Smith and Gary both of which are similar fits.

Gute has been mostly been releasing veterans to open up playing time for young guys with potential. Not adding veteran that block them... so if Gary is healthy, I don't see Gute considering it.

Even if Gary is not healthy, I think whomever trades for Clowny is gonna want to resign him and Packers have so much invested there already.

He's good tho. Would Aaron be willing to take a pay cut?

You can disagree, but that just makes you mistaken ... Clowney is a big, long, power edge rusher who can stuff the run, just like the others, and of course all coaches try scheming him to the QB too!

Clowny has publicly admitted to weighting in at 284 lbs but perfering to be lighter... where all I can quickly find about Z'Smith or Gary is being in the 270s.

I do like him, but we're paying Aaron 25+ this year. Don't have the camp space.

Also you do know an OLB/DT hybird is simply called a DE right? And despite what you think, they can all play DE. Hell, they had Matthews doing it (with a hand up) for a while with the 3-4 giving way to the 4-2 nickel packages and Mathews is smaller than all of them.

    Anyway it's moot given all the money tied up at the QB position.

    Texans looking for a Tackle. Maybe they trade Bryan Bulaga for Clowney?

    Dhazer says Dolphins and Packers are the two teams talking to Texans about Clowney.

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

      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) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

      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

      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
