Last season, he established career highs in receptions (80) and receiving yards (1,292) to go along with nine touchdowns.

Those are the facts so we don't get jumped on for not backing up our statements but look at those and the way the nfl is today those aren't superstar stats they are average stats. Wrs are going over 100 receptions and 1500 yards and double digit tds.

But he got what he deserved by being classy about the contract i think. But c'mon now would you pay 13 million to a little above average wr? Thats Fitz, Bolden, and Johnson money.

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

For someone that seems able to pull all the stats square out of your ass, you can't count worth a shit.

I believe you have given Jennings a raise in every single post you have put up today.

Rodgers base pay for 2009 is still 680,000.00 btw.

It's all relative buddy. You pay for the best talent you have in house. Unfortunately, not every team has a Larry Fitzgerald, Randy Moss, or Calvin Johnson.

This was a fair deal for both sides and if Jennings continues to play at the level he has been then it will be more then worth it. The only way I see his production dropping significantly is if he or Rodger's gets a significant injury.

Good signing! Way to set the example that you will be rewarded for proving your worth and acting mature about it Ted!

This should make you happy then Dave :p

Packers star WR Greg Jennings has agreed to terms on his new deal with the team.

Jennings, who was due to make the veteran minimum in 2009, the final year of his rookie contract, has agreed to a new deal that will run through the 2012 season, according to a league source. He will earn a maximum of $31 million in the deal, should he reach the $5 million in incentives.

Jennings will earn about $16 million in 2009, between his signing bonus and base salary.

see went up again hes up to 16 million lol

I don't get it...........TT haters were pissing and moaning that Ted Thompson was too much of a tightwad.........TT haters were pissing and maoning that he wouldn't get Jennings signed...........it's obvious there is NO pleasing some.
We get Jennings signed, pay him well, and somehow thats turned around into a negative?
I don't get it.

Wait......yeas i do! Haters will hate Ted Thompson no matter WHAT he does. We now have proof of that.
Lets see what would ave happened if he had'nt got this done. What would have happened?
"TT's a TIGHTWAD! He refused to pay our best WR the money he deserves!!!! It's ALL because Ted Thompson refuses to pay anyone!!!"

Now he gets it done, and "He overpayed! He only signed Jennings cause he's one of HIS guys!"
LOLOLOLOLOL!!!

I like what MassPackerFan said in the other thread: If Ted Thompson has a style, he's covering his tracks well. I think Ted Thompson would make a fabulous poker player. He would play a mean tight-aggressive game and he would clean out the wallets of a lot of fish.

Don't get me wrong cheesey i'm glad they paid Jennings, I'm happy for the guy.
But don't it seem fishy that Ted Thompson wouldn't spend money when the devil was here and wouldn't trade up in the draft and now the devil is gone he does what is totally opposite to his nature.

I think Jennings was overpaid stats wise but i believe he got rewarded for keeping his mouth shut and just doing what he agreed to when he signed the first contract, and for that he gets a huge thumbs up from me.

Little note for cheesey, I bought the Wii today with Wii fit so maybe we can hook up online and play sometime 🙂

dfosterf (17h) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (17h) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (19h) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (19h) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (19h) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (21h) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (21h) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (22h) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (22h) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (23h) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Parsons has followed Rasheed Walker on Twitter. Quite the choice

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Kuhn is a former player who works for the team, if somethings going down, he would be close to it

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : @kuhnj30 Micah Freaking Parsons

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : A LOT of buzz on the Bird App regarding Parsons; even Schefter is saying it's serious

dfosterf (26-Aug) : *Orzech*

dfosterf (26-Aug) : Orzich long snapper 3 yr extension

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Packers signed someone for three year deal

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : lol i know it's insane ... sign up for the waiver wire then you'll know

wpr (26-Aug) : YES!!!!!!

Mucky Tundra (26-Aug) : WE WANT THE LIST! WE WANT THE LIST!

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : @JJLahey · 2m Holy crap, Packers, where the heck is the list?

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : haha folks on Tweeter every year this time ... 'where is list Packers!!" hahaha

wpr (26-Aug) : He played pretty good.

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NAZIR STACKHOUSE HAS MADE THE 53

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : NOOOOO KALEN IS GONE

Zero2Cool (26-Aug) : Kalen King and Kamal Hadden making it. me thinks
