Last Friday was the deadline for franchise players to sign long-term contracts, and it got me to thinking about which Packer is the most likely to be tagged in the next few years. By the way, this hasn't happened since Ryan Pickett in 2010. The very best players on a team are usually the onesContinue Reading››

I can't see TeddyT using the tag.

Thompson normally seems to use the franchise tag just to get more time to talk out a longer deal... and the guys he has tagged (DT Corey Williams in 2008 and DE Ryan Pickett in 2010) aren't really franchise players but above average players that he wanted to resign and not let get away.

With that in mind, I could see a couple of different paths in 2017
[list]

If Perry or Datone light it up and have a break out year (like Corey Williams did) at OLB might want to lock up the young guys.

Sitton, Lang or Bak as a veteran to keep around and get more time to talk (like they did with Pickett)

To lock up Rb Eddie Lacy or TE Jared Cook as they play at positions with cheaper tags.

[/list]

In 2018, I think they'll resign Shields and Haha before FA or let them test the waters.
But maybe Burnett or TE Rodgers will get tagged for more time to work out a long term deal.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (8h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (8h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (9h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (10h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (10h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : 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 (27-Aug) : 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
