As long as you donβt say anything negative about Amos
Apparently his ass should have been cut or traded years ago b/c I have it in for him

There's two kinds of Packer fans. There's smart ones and there's the ones that think it's time to get rid of Amos.
23 mil a year? The Packers I believe would happily pay that:
1. WR DAVANTE ADAMS, GREEN BAY PACKERS
Adams made it clear he wanted to become the highest-paid player at the wide receiver position, and itβs hard to argue against him deserving that distinction. Matters become more complicated when you try to determine who is technically the highest-paid wide receiver and what the true annual value of their contracts are. A franchise tag for Adams will be just shy of $20 million, making it less likely given Green Bayβs salary cap challenges ahead β but not impossible to workaround.
Strengths:
β Route running
β Releases at the line
β HandsWeaknesses:
β DurabilityScheme Fit/Role:
No. 1 WR: Davante Adams is an elite No. 1 receiver in any offense in the NFL. He has scheme versatility β able to carve up man or zone coverage β and has shown to be a star in multiple systems. Any receiver-needy team would be in the running for his services and he may even try and engineer a package deal with Aaron Rodgers. A reunion with college quarterback Derek Carr in Las Vegas is another obvious connection.Recent Injury History:
Adams has had several minor injuries that have caused him to miss pockets of time over the past couple of years. Ankle, hamstring and toe injuries have all slowed him, but there are no major concerns.Contract Projection: Four years, $93 million ($23.25M per year, $65 million total guaranteed)
Bottom Line:
Adams is the best receiver in the game and one of the jewels of any free agency class. He won't come cheap, but he is a transformative player.
Durability? Itβs the NFL. Everyone gets dinged.
Hmmm. DeβVondre Campbell posting on Instagram that heβs at Lambeau Field.
Extend him, Gute, before his contract voids!
@keningalls: Heβs got less than 5 hours to put ink to paper for the Packers to take advantage of some cap savings before his contract voids.
@keningalls: Packers players De'Vondre Campbell, Robert Tonyan, Chandon Sullivan, and Kevin King all have 2022 contract voids triggering at midnight February 21st.
Extensions must be done before to prevent dead cap acceleration into 2022:
King $3M
Tonyan $1.88M
Sullivan $970K
Campbell $808K
Fucking King, 3 million for being a stiff. Zero chance he re-ups for what he's worth, which is nothing but in the cap scenario vet minimum.
A friend of mine sent a screen shot of Campbell at Lodge Koehler today. . FWIW.
Per Twitter FWIW.
BREAKING: Per Source, the Green Bay #Packers have engaged with multiple teams, including the Washington #Commanders and Atlanta #Falcons, in preliminary trade discussions centering around former 1st-round QB Jordan Love, with talks rapidly picking up in the last 24 hours.
Kurt Benkert is the MAN!

Breaking News from Twitter? (You did write FWIW) Still, it IS interesting, thanks.
Jordan Love, we hardly knew ya!
Oh, twitter? Was it Adam Sniffter?

Anyone have updates on these players.
Campbell wasn't re-signed yesterday. Curious if the contract demand is too rich for the FO's blood.
Of course it was. He's an ILB.
Learning the void deadline may be 3PM CST today rather than at midnight (past). There may still be time to get some deals done without accelerating dead cap on the Packers' four pending void contracts.

I think Campbell is one of their most important guys to bring back. Hopefully they can figure it out.
Past performance not indicative of future results?
Pardon my skepticism considering the decades long disregard for ILB.
Sure, but seriously doubt Campbell flew to GB because he wanted some mid Feb Wisconsin weather... more likely the funked up FO requested he come in so they can talk.
Not my point. I'm guessing they don't like his ask. I'm all for negotiations and getting the best deal for all but again, pardon my skepticism regarding the total disregard for ILB.
I don't think he needed to fly to GB if they were far apart $ wise. If you aren't close, there is no point to meet face-to-face. That's why you have shit like Zoom for. We will see what happens, but I am guessing we will hear a deal is done sometime in the next day or 2.
Weβll find out soon enough
He and Kenny Clark were easily their best players on D. Pay that man his money.
Unless this was pre-scheduled, guessing this is an AR announcement. Along with a lot of questions on guys like Adams, Jordan Love, etc
Packers GM Brian Gutekunst will speak to reporters in person at noon CT on Wednesday at Lambeau Field.

Was a combine pre-scheduled presser. Could, and likely will, talk about AR.

I don't think it typically works that way. Generally the agent does all the negotiating and the player only shows up to sign the contract. There are exceptions, of curse.
Pretty sure it's implied.
Honestly, when you think about it, the Packers haven't been to a Superb Owl since they lost Greg Jennings. That's who Rodgers should have lobbied for.

I saw a replay of sorts of the Owl against the Steelers on YT. They showed the Jennings TDfrom the back of the EZ that Polamalu drilled him as he caught it. The ball came out and Jennings landed on it. And got back a hold of it in one motion as he stood up.
Nothing!π
Is this because they can sign players when there has been no other bowel movements to free up cap space?

So the "source" here is a Broncos reporter who is likely bitter that the Donkey's won't be getting AR?
Uh ok.
How does one become an NFL insider? The rumor guy is a Denver wank.
