"Ted (Thompson) would not want to pay a 6 feet tall defensive tackle $9 million a year," an executive in personnel for an NFL team said. "He's not getting that. He'll probably let him go."

Interesting that someone thinks he won't pay considering Raji is on a one year deal and likely done after this one with us for good and Guion is JAG, and Datone is close to busting. I shudder to think that he wouldn't pay him.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Not re-sign your young leader on the defensive line. Yea, that does not compute with me.

Of anyone on the D-line, Daniels is the least likely to be allowed to walk.

Why would you use a 4th round pick on a guy that if produces well enough to merit a $9 million salary that you wouldn't re-sign him? Do we have Khyri Thorton ready to steamroll the league or something?

Mike Daniels isn't going to get $9 million a year anyway. It'll be around $6 million and $8 million a year on average. You're looking at a 4 year deal running around $25 million to $32 million with anywhere between 40% and 60% guaranteed.

It will look expensive at first, two years in, it will look like a bargain basement deal.

He could Jennings himself right out of here. It happens. Ted does not always pay his guys. Jennings is one...EDS is another...Tramon another...Davon house another...James Jones...Scott Wells...it goes on and on. Not sure why it's such an automatic that people think he's staying? I don't. He should stay because we have a horrible line with him but too much is too much.

Scott Wells wasn't a Ted Thompson guy. And was not worth re-signing either.
Davon House won the freaking lottery.
Tramon Williams wrong side of 30, time to move on.
Evan Smith was overpaid.
Greg Jennings was brainwashed. Got a ring, wanted to cash in.
James Jones wanted to be a starter so he left for that opportunity and more money.


Again, the Packers give second contracts often (rookie being first), but the third contract is rare and fourth contract just doesn't happen. This is part of the draft and develop process.

Jones walked the second time. Like Cliffy, Ted let him test the market. Then he came back and took what was offered. Cullen Jenkins too, imo.

Id be surprised if they don't work something out. Daniels has been our best player on defense and has gotten better and better every year.

With defensive lineman Mike Daniels heading into a contract year, the Packers identified the fourth-year defender as a player they wanted to lock up to a new deal this offseason. However, with the regular season just two weeks away, Daniels and the Packers are "far apart' on extension negotiations, according to Bob McGinn of the [...]

DAMNIT wrong thread.

Oh well Mike should tell his agent to shelve discussions at the end of training camp, then play his ass off in his contract year.

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
