His cap hit is a little over $7 million this year and a little under $8 million next year. Both very affordable. In 2024 he will drop to a little more than $2 million a season. It gives Green Bay options as he ages. A seasoned vet can make a big difference even after he loses a step or two. Look at Charles Woodson. He could still make plays in his last few seasons.

Speaking of how bad I am at Madden, they think I should draft a projected undrafted rookie as 1st overall. Mind you, my QB won MVP back-to-back and I'm reigning super bowl champion. Clown show.
