So now we're worried about trading a long snapper? Something tells me the draft, Jennings and Collins need that attention more.

---

Worried? No. I was just puzzled by the way the trade was pushed so far out. I'm always a little surprised by conditional trades -- they seem like such a gamble.

---

In all likelihood, the Packers will receive no compensation as JJ Jansen probably won't make the Carolina team by 2010 (or 2011). I'm sure being on the team is one such condition in order for compensation to be paid, as well as some performance incentives probably. However, any remaining salary cap payments that the Packers owe should now shift to the Panthers. Or at least it better.

---

That was my thought. I view his chances of being on the active roster in 2011 as slim. And yes, he will have to play a certain (undisclosed) number of games for the Packers to receive the pick. But hey, if we free up a few extra cap dollars, I guess that's a positive.

---

As mentioned something is better than nothing. Last year's long snapper(Carolina's) hasn't been signed. The condition to the trade could be to simply make the roster for one game, who knows. Whatever happens I'm not going to lose much sleep over it.

I am sure the condition of the trade is if JJ is on the 53 man roster at the beginning of the season, we get that future 7th rounder..

There are vague there, but it certainly sounds to be the case..

Wonder if they are feeling a little pressure yet to move Peppers.. and no I don't want him here at the cost in salary he will be demanding.. let alone shipping something valuable in return to the Panthers.

I like how alot of people are acting very degrading about a 7th round pick. We're getting rid off a player we would've cut and are going to get a 7th for him, if he'll play. That's a win-win situation.

Donald Driver, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Jay Rattlif and tons of solid starters who aren't pro-bowlers or big paid guys.

The chances aren't high, but it's better than nothing.

It's better than nothing.

Let's leave it at that.

I am not being denigrating toward a seventh-round pick. I am commenting on the fact that the pick is conditional. All the Panthers have to do to avoid paying up is simply cut the guy.

---

I wonder if they could cut the guy and then re-sign him....would we still get the draft pick?
