It needs it's own thread .
Great signing in my opinion. The guy is an OLB who is 6 foot 4 and 270 lbs. and can flat out run. He is widely considered to be the Ravens best defender last year with 8.5 sacks and something crazy like 60 QB hits and pressures.
I like the two additions and we can now more easily go BPA in the first round rather than a position of need.
Packers double-dip at outside linebacker. Preston Smith has been signed from Washington, according to a source.
The Packers also are signing Preston Smith, according to a league source. Huge day for the Packers defense.
i think they should keep perry (oof). this does allow the draft to have the lap fallers get snatched up, no matter where they are. it really opens up someone on the OL / TE to be the picks, likely even a S / Pass rusher...or even ilb, all kinds of options now, i also think they will re-sign cm3 - so that's becoming a nice rotation, i think if perry and cm3 are not 3 down guys -they stay on the field for the full season.
Signing Preston Smith as well?! Gutey!!!

Yup...and I am hoping both BPA's are OL. Then wheel and deal the rest.
And Preston Smith? Gute is shoving those rims right up my ass!!!!
Wooooooooooo!

I wouldn't have given this any attention previously but with today's dealings it really changes the complexion of where the Packers are going. Showing they want to win now brings all kinds of possibilities. The draft now looking to have lots of options.
Can’t imagine Nick Perry is a Packer in 2019. Or for that matter Matthews.
Gutenheimer ain’t ****ing around.
Really huge signings today.
I'm told free agent LB Preston Smith is going to Green Bay on a 4-year deal worth $52M. $16M fully guaranteed at signing. Smith choices came down to the #Colts and the #Packers, per source.

I’m ok signing Clay and putting his Goldie Locks ass at MLB. He can work there
Dang its nice to have a GM that isn't messing around and getting it done! Go get em Gute!
Bell and Thomas still out there. Pretty interesting development.

So he gave you a rim job?
Packers are releasing Nick Perry after agreeing to terms Preston Smith and ZaDarius Smith. Was set to make $11M this season. Will b e a market for him for sure. Young enough and is healthy after battling injuries in 2018

And there it is...
Is there a place for Dee Ford with the signings today?
The
#Packers are add on offense, too. They’re signing versatile OL Billy Turner, source said.Turner is a swing player who played both tackles positions and left guard. The
#Broncos showed interest in re-signing him, but the price was too high. He fits the wide zone type of guard the Packers are looking for and could easily fill the RG position.

FIFY
Figured Perry would be gone, and it's a good move for the Pack and for Perry. He is better fit in a 4-3. Good luck to you, Nick. Hope you can get healthy.
No thanks on CM3. He gives great effort in run D, but his legs are shot. Would still like to see one more EDGE signing, actually, once the FA frenzy dies. Maybe a one-year prove it deal or low-pick trade for another player on a roster. Reggie Gilbert is at best a 5th EDGE, Fackrell should be no higher than 3rd/4th EDGE.
Packers are giving former Bears’ safety Adrian Amos a 4-year, $37 million deal that includes $14 million in year one and $21 million in first two years of deal, per source.

We have good running backs. We need big OL men to get them past that first wall.

TT is long gone boys & girls....spending like drunken sailors at 1265. 😆
4 yr 28 mil for turner
4ur 37 mil for Amos
Turner gets 4 years at 29 million. he aint coming in to back up.
Does Perry get to take his arm casts/clubs with him?
Packers adding OL Billy Turner
....and Perry....GTFOH!!!
We'll have to see how the numbers shake out for these contracts. The Turner APY is pricey though. Unfortunately, that is cost of drafting poorly and having to turn to FA.
Oh, so this is what the off-season is supposed to feel like.
Did we just swipe Minnehaha’s off season world championship?
