I heard on the radio today that both Clay and Randall are being let go.
I’m not really surprised, especially with matthews, but really thought they might keep Cobb.
Looks like they really are moving forward with the new guys.

Though if I remember correctly, it was rumored that the Packers tried to work out new deals with Bulaga, Cobb and Matthews... and they were all reported slightly different, but it sounded like the general idea/offer was to get them to take less money for something... either more guaranteed money or extension (for lower $$$ per year amounts), and I'm pretty sure Cobb's was labeled as an extension version for a lower amount.

Matthews is a versatility chess piece, and that's fit in perfectly with what Pettine wants to do... the only question is the price amount... and sounded like Pettine sorta said he might have apologized to Matthews for dropping him into coverage so often because they didn't quite have the coverage pieces they needed for the scheme and just happened that what Pettine thought was best for the team.

Also thought Matthews might be back, and released Perry instead... of course this could just mean they're going to be signing other FAs.

No big surprise, probably just the start as Gutekunst puts his team together.

Clay and Cobb were going to recieve better offers anyway so they might as well get an early start.

I'm betting Randall ends up with an NFC East team.
Clay's most likely landing spots are Cleveland or Atlanta.
Family members are legends in both cities.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Now that the newer WRs are going into their 2nd year, maybe they think they will get more out of them at a much lower price.
Cobb only played I believe in 9 games last year, and they should be able to get more out of the 2nd year guys and Allison then what Cobb did.
Matthews.....to me, he has been a letdown the last several years.
I can see NFC north teams going after Cobb. Especially the Vikings. After all, they seem to like our retreads.

I still hope we draft a slot receiver in this draft. Andy Isabella is the guy I am hoping for.

I'm not sure we have a spot for Cobb.

Clay is nothing more than a pass rushing specialist. I read somewhere that he wants to finish his career in Green Bay. That surprised me because I always got the impression he wanted the hell out of here. Nothing said that, it was just a feeling I had.

He went on to say, "I think everyone wants to be with one team the entirety of their career. So if that's what's in the cards, fantastic. If not, I'll deal with that when it presents itself."
