The Chicago game might have been his last game as a Packer and as a pro.

It would be nice to have more information about this. Is it just swelling from prior surgeries? Does he need surgery again? Did he re-injure it in the bears game? In practice? Getting out of bed?

I think he may be done as a Packer, and maybe as a pro. If there was such a thing as a “bust” for NFL contracts like there is for the draft, he would be on that list. He’s great when he’s on the field, but you can’t trust him to be ready to play week in and week out. I’m over it.

We got this weekend off, then next Monday is our next game. Then the next week is our bye, correct? Maximizing Bakh's rest time, allowing us to use the roster spot.

Used up Patrick Taylor's call ups in the first three games already. Roster spot should be useful here. Plus Stokes will probly be coming off PUP.

One could quibble the Packers should have traded Bakh when they had a chance but if his knees this messed up I doubt he would have passed any physical.

I like Rasheed tho, but he's young, I hope he holds up against these Detroit pass rushers, pretty good. Hope he keeps his confidence, gonna be a very good player if/when he gets close to his ceiling.

Given the sorry state of the Jets line, I'm not sure Rodgers would survive a whole season in one piece even if Bakh was there.

I suppose you could have traded him after last season for cents on the dollar (day 3 picks) since he was playing well last year and missed time at the end of the year with an issue that had nothing to do with his knee. But if you're eating his contract in that scenario you might as well keep him around to keep the new QB upright.

In the end, Bakhs cap hit made it hard to move him and if you're gonna eat his contract from cutting him, might as well keep him around and try and squeeze another season out of him.

dfosterf (56m) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (56m) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (2h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (2h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (2h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (2h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (2h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (2h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (2h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (2h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (2h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (2h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (2h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (2h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (3h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (4h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (4h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (4h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (20h) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

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

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh
