At $17 mil a year it's reasonable. They are paying him tackle-like money but still showing him as a premier guard.
Clearly before the contract expires he will be middle of the pack

Excellent move. He’s one of the best guards in the league and can fill in anywhere on the line in a pinch. I feel like that’s a bargain.

So even at $17 million a year now that puts us over the cap next year by $19 million as of now. So will this be the end of Bahktari and Jones to free up that kind of cash?

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Quit worrying about the cap.

I bet Jenkins cap hit will be around 5 mil next year.
There are ways to manipulate the cap and Andrew Ball is one of the best in the league.

Every Team does it, The Packers used to not do it, until they realized they were falling behind.

These contracts are all so different in how they are written.
Guaranteed money and signing bonuses, beyond that a team can usually get out of a contract pretty cheap.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

By giving G Elgton Jenkins a $24M signing bonus and adjusting his base salary, the #Packers were able to write off $4.3M of his deal on the '22 salary cap and structure his deal so he will count just $6.8M against the cap in '23, according to a source. Helps them out a lot.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (11h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (11h) : HUMP DAY

beast (12h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (12h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (12h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (12h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (12h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (12h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (12h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (12h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (12h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (14h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (14h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (14h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (14h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (14h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (14h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : Packers have $60M+ of 2025 cap space on paper TODAY.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Missed FG into a Lions TD; that'll do pig, that'll do

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
