$5,562,000 against the 2014 cap,
$9,125,000 in 2015
$12,125,000 in both 2016 and 2017

Kinda fits in line with what I had hoped. The larger portions being applied when the cap is projected to hit around $160 million

If for some reason he regresses(not gonna happen), The Packers will be able to let him go after year 2 without too much of a cap hit.

Vontae Davis got the same - 4 years/$39 million, but with 20 million guaranteed. IMO, he's less of a player than Shields.

I sincerely hope Thompson is not thinking like some in here that this is basically a two or three year deal. I say again - about the 5th time, they SHOULDA signed him for more years. As it is, yeah, he really is gonna need to be restructured or re-signed too soon - while he is still in his prime, and thus, really expensive - either that or he leaves in 4 years, and we miss out on having him for several good years.

Shield got about 2-3m a year more than he should have in my opinion, to me it looks like a panic move, with the option of running away after half the deal because they know they overpaid, they payed for unfulfilled potential. However overpaying for potential is always better than overpaying 30+ year old for past production.

I think people are focusing too much on the 4 for $39 million and not really seeing where it hits the Packers cap. Or maybe I focus on the cap hit too much? 🤔

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : if PH dies, there is packerpeople com available

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : database is on new host, eventually website will follow

Mucky Tundra (30-Jul) : Zero, regarding Ewers, you are correct.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Sadly, this might be our life for awhile. I could put it on another host, but seems it was slower, although more stable

beast (30-Jul) : How long will it be down?

beast (30-Jul) : RIP site 😭

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Site will die, I have to restart it.

Zero2Cool (30-Jul) : Quinn stinks. Lot of underthrows. (my guess)

beast (30-Jul) : How did Quinn Ewers effect where Golden was drafted?

dfosterf (30-Jul) : All I've experienced was late at night or early morning. I just figured you were doing something in the background
