This is incorrect about Odell. At least according to him. He wanted Rams. Packers didn't refuse to sign him either. That's a presumption made by the media because of the reported offer.

You can argue semantics about all in, whatever. But when you consider what Packers did via free agency years prior, I it certainly falls within the realm of all in.

All in for the other 31 teams? Eh yoh probably got a valid point haha. But for Packers, yeah, the phrase fits.

No the Packers didn't refuse to sign him, they just simply lowed balled him to the point there was zero chance of him signing, just like when Gute chased Jordy Nelson, whom wanted to be resigned off.

https://www.sportskeeda.com/amp/nfl/news-the-reason-odell-beckham-jr-sign-packers-revealed

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the reason that Beckham Jr. decided to sign with the Rams and not the Packers was down to money. Schefter stated that the Packers did not offer Beckham Jr. a wage above the minimum veteran wage, which is $1.075 million for a full season.

Beckham wanted to play for the best team with the best QB, and at that time was the Packers, until the Packers wouldn't pay him.

You can try to rewrite history, just like trying to rewriting what Kurt Benkert said about LaFleaur, but no matter what the semantics says, or the Packers fans spin we want to put on it, these negative things actually did happen.

If you can't handle that, then don't reply to me because I am really fed up with your condescending comments. I avoid coming here as frequently because I am sick of playing the "what bullshit is beast slinging at me today" game.

As for "rebuild", you need to really shut the fuck up already. I spoke my piece on it and said I don't understand the definition and the more people tried defining it, the less it seemed to fit my interpretation of what the Packers 2023 season is. I don't really care if it's called a rebuild, retool, renew or re-whatever. I couldn't care less. I have no idea why that crawls up your ass so much, but pull the stick out already. fucking sick of this

Patiently waiting for the "Julio Jones" thread to reappear since once again The Packers failed to sign him

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

Im still mad the Packers didn't renegotiate Javon Walkers contract in which he forced a trade.

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

Odell wanted the Rams the entire time, sorry

That's the complete opposite of what Odell said...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
