Maybe they're just gonna trade him to Minnesota.

So AJ Hawk was injured last year.

Anybody ever have bone spurs?

Not fun, gotta tip my hat to him for playing through the pain and doing what he could.

He lost too much weight trying to ease the pain, in the end he was benched.
Now what happens when he is able to start to work out again?

What if he puts back on 30 pounds and returns to his 2010 form?
Just looking at the roster as it sits today, Hawks chances of staying a Packer are better than most think.

Wouldn't surprise me if he is released, also wouldn't surprise me to see him play out his contract.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I can't really understand the venom for A.J. Hawk from fans. He is exactly what he was predicted to be. Everyone said he had hit his ceiling and would be assignment sure. He has been precisely that and durable. I'm fine with Hawk staying on the roster as long as that does not stop the team from improving the position. Hawk is not the problem, the problem is he being the best ILB on the team. That needs to change by adding ILB, not subtracting the best of the bunch.

After that, young players with potential are probably more valuable and would need the reps that Hawk would take away. Since the ILB position is in transition this offseason, having Hawk around for one more year to assist in a smooth transition wouldn't be the worse scenario.

My ideal scenario would be drafting a top young backer and pairing him with Barrington when he's ready, with Hawk as that utility guy (at a lower pay) to come in on run downs and in a pinch.

Regardless of the venom as Zero said that some people have for Hawk, he's be a durable stand up player who made a lot bigger difference than many people realize. Wouldn't shock me to see him start the year in the run packages until the younger guy (we hopefully draft) is ready to roll!

Yes. Hawk should never be starting at this point in his career unless it's due to injury. A team could do a lot worse than a healthy Hawk as the 3rd or 4th ILB. Although if that was the case, he needs to be contributing on special teams.

My problem is he really doesn't play any special teams and the fact that he has such limited athletic ability at this point that he won't be able to compensate and be anything more than a liability if he gets at all banged up which has a good chance of happening at his age. If he were to come back at minimum or really close to minimum salary then that's fine but anything more than that and I would rather just go with a more athletic player for his roster spot.

I'm not one of those fans that just hates him because of where he was drafted, I've always liked him and I know he's a good locker room guy but there's too many times the last few years to me that he just plays hesitant and passive because he doesn't trust his athletic ability. Disagree with me if you want but I just personally prefer that if we are going to have someone play mediocre football it be someone younger who will at least benefit from the playing time experience.

See what he can do at TE. Maybe he can save us a deep roster spot with some versatility.
