Sad that they couldn't get more than 3 years. Although, the world is going to end in 2012 so I suppose Ted Thompson is just playing the percentages.

I also think if you consider the guy was underpaid since he has been here it helps to more or less balance out over the term of both contracts.

If you look at what he was paid and the production over the last two years it wasn't even close.

Now they move onto Collins and later Kampman if he is working out. They may even go from there to some of the guys that will need to be done next year so they aren't dealing with all of them at once while they have the extra space to do it.

All of a sudden all the money laying around isn't around anymore and there's the answer to why Ted Thompson doesn't go out and overpay FA's. You don't start thinking about how much you can spend at Winn Dixie when your standing at the checkout counter in the Piggly Wiggly with a basket full of groceries you don't know how much is going to cost yet.

Did they say who decided on the years? I'm thinking it was Jennings because he was pretty much locked up to the Packers for the next 3 years anyway. I was telling my neighbor about it and he says it makes sense. If there is no CBA in place then Jennings wouldn't become a free agent till 2012 anyways so maybe Jennings decided i'm screwed so give me the cash now and then when i can actually test free agency he will be able to. Just an idea i thought about.

But God was signed in Green Bay i guess, even though the neighbor laughed his ass off at the money, paying him qb money for a above average but not star type wr. Those were his exact words.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

He's actually a Bills fan and after looking at Jennings stats they aren't anything that sticks way out except maybe tds but yards and catches arent much to look at, they are actually pretty average to me for being on a pass happy offense.


before i get jumped on i'm glad he got the payday but if ya think about it he's another Ted Thompson name sake so he better be paid 😛

Statistically, dhazer does have a point. I do think Jennings is overrated in Packerland.

I'm also glad he was re-signed.
