How often was he used out of backfield last year by NE?
Packers being in the conversation for Malik Jackson tells me they were probably looking to upgrade Mo Wilkerson, or that he may not be back and ready to practice as soon as they'd like.

42 rushing attempts last year for NE. I would love this signing…
Significant upgrade over Trevor Davis (as both returner and WR).
#Packers are interested in bring back safety Ibraheim Campbell, an unrestricted free agent who played well after being claimed off waivers. Campbell is recovering from a torn ACL in Week 13 and would be ready to sign closer to training camp. Mike Pettine really likes him.

Andrew Sendejo is available. He was the pride of Minnesota, until he wasn't.
Grave Digger posted:As long as you're not counting on him to be your #1 receiver, he's a pretty good utility player. Definitely a return game upgrade.
#Packers mentioned as a team for Cordarrelle Patterson, which makes sense. HUGE upgrade in the return game. Can be a factor stretching the field, in the backfield, and in the screen game. Plus, won't be expensive. https://t.co/V5x1OSTlvH

As long as you don't throw him the ball downfield, he would add a lot. Minnesoduh wanted him to play WR and he sucked. NE used him as kind of an H-back/returner/screen guy, and he found his role. If Patterson is willing to block at all, now you have a dangerous screen set throwing it to MVS or Adams or Patterson. I can see a lot of different looks off that type of formation, especially inside the 20.
Lucas Patrick also will be tendered, I’m told https://t.co/GWhO704EdY

Source: The #Vikings are not exercising the option on starting S Andrew Sendejo, making him a free agent. Another talented safety in the mix before free agency.

CP could be a heavy duty version of the Darren SPROULES I have always dreamed about…

It's not like GB has a lot of options when it comes to the OL since the cupboard is already pretty bare. If any of them are jettisoned, the cupboard now has a hole in it.
Don't remember the team or player, But Patrick clobbered some guy who gave Rodgers a cheap shot last year. Guy deserves the tender just for that! 
Landon Collins just told me he will go to the #Skins.

Insert vomit emoji.
Sources: Former #Giants star S Landon Collins is signing a 6-year deal for a whopping $84M with the rival #Redskins. Hard to imagine a box safety with this kind of deal after last year’s slow safety market. This moves the market dramatically.

Redskins are also throwing stupid money at Mosely. Damn Snyder....
LOL Redskins. Enjoy a guy who couldn't cover anyone last season.

I believe they are guaranteeing Collins at least $45 million (per WFAN-660 NYC). Clinton-Dix could only dream.
I like Collins but not for that kind of stupid money. Synder's an idiot
Agreed, stupid money, but I was hoping the range for a safety would stay reasonable. It just skews it for what's remaining. Oh well, that's how it works.
Like dominoes now...

Snyder is a complete idiot who has way too much money.
Also, it's quite obvious most players only care about "gettin paid" & not actually winning. Redskins QB situation is a complete joke & don't tell me "But Boris....they just traded for Case Keenum." 
If Snyder gives Moseley $20 Mill per - Silly season is obviously in full swing.
Seems like every year it's the same teams that blow up FA on the first day. Outside of the Pats, They end up watching the playoffs from home.

Hopefully makes them less likely to draft a Pass Rusher at #8

Don't look now but the Skins just grabbed Landon Collins, too. 6years? $84 million per Ian Rapport.
Posted above.

they probably take one of the top TEs now.
Gipson is a great option. Nothing wrong with getting mid tier guys either.

Not likely now, plus they are still feeling the burn from Ebron not working out for them.
#Lions solve one of their big TE issues... https://t.co/I7vh19YK55

The #Packers had talks with recently released #Jaguars safety Tashaun Gipson, but it appears he will be signing elsewhere, a source said. Unclear if the price got too high or he had a preferred team. #Packers were interested in meeting with him, but it didn't happen.

The Snyders of the league are the ones who have whored up the cost of tags, and why teams have to pay mediocre QBs $30+M per season.
Another silent killer of the league. It's not a sustainable business model in the long term.
JMHO, others may vary.
Gipson was a Pro-Bowler last time he player for Pettine.
As said the other day, he would be a very nice add.
Fandame posted:Yeah, the Brown trade is cap hades for Pitt this coming year, but after that they automatically free up $21 million from Brown, plus this year is the last big hit for Big Ben at $23 million. They want to extend Ben—maybe—and would make it cap-friendly. But with Brown gone, I could see Pitt letting Ben play out the year, him retiring, and Pitt starting over with an awful lot of cap space. No Brown, Bell getting out, Ben is 37... time to reset.
Nice take.
I wouldn't be surprised if Pittsburgh goes through a transition like the Packers just did in the next year or two. Coaching staff, front office reorganization, etc.
Lots more money being thrown around:
The #Jaguars had Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles as their top target. Per
he gets 4 years and $88M. Large.I
The Jacksonville Jaguars added a new leader under center when they reportedly signed quarterback Nick Foles on Monday.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the agreement. Adam Schefter of ESPN added that Foles will receive $50.125 million in guaranteed money, with Mike Garafolo of NFL Network noting Foles' deal has a max value of $102 million.
Blake Bortles is expected to be released by the Jaguars after the deal is official, per Rapoport, who said it "will be a few days" before the quarterback is out in Jacksonville.
