S Micah Hyde is said to be “aggressively pursuing other options” out of the #Packers. Looks like he’s out the door. 2 other strong offers
That hopefully means they're going to pursue a starting CB, will draft another, and still have a full stable. Gunter can be the new Hyde. Davis full time PR/KR.
Ok, when's camp start?

They better know what they are doing with the secondary. It was an embarrassment last year. Hyde made more big plays than anyone. That would be a huge kick to the nuts if it is the same old suck.
I don't think Hyde is indispensable... his lack of speed was a continuous issue. He was a fine football player, but they have top picks invested already and a need for new blood.

It will be...Ted won't spend the money to fix the problem...we all know that.
The answer will be Davon House...wait and see. If that's the answer(in their minds), I hate to see a non answer.

More like Rick Perry.
I am also a handsome devil with a square chin, so yes.
And I too would eliminate the department of........um......let me get back to you on that one.
I'm going to miss Micah. He's like a big huge oversized recliner. It looks terrible. You probably got it cheap. And You don't know where to put it. But everyone loves it. It's damned near indestructable. Lots of great memories and its great knowing it's there. If recliners were racist.
Thanks Micah!
Makes room for Jabrill Peppers. He can do everything Hyde can do and a lot more.
That would be interesting... as much doubt there is out there, he seems like a player to me.
I'm fine with letting him go if someone better is coming. I don't trust Randall or Rollins. Their first year looked promising, but last year was bad. I'm not writing them off, but it is too risky to depend on them at this point.

Agents gotta love Rapoport. Especially Micah's.
I'm fine with letting him go if the other option is overpaying.
to not even give him an offer is wrong. He was money down the stretch.

it's been said, but I'll say it again, R&R were the 2015 Davante Adams in 2016. let's see what the two look like when healthy again this fall before being convinced their injury-riddled 2016 season means they suck. kriste.
Reports on Twitter saying Nick Perry is staying. 5 year deal.
WTMJ just confirmed as well. Packers are re-signing Perry.
Now the question is, how much??
Hope he builds on that contract year, but he's been so brittle. Bet this sends Peppers elsewhere....

And all that hand wringing for nothing. ITWT
PackersNotes 24 minutes agoWas told by two people that #Packers are getting close with TE Jared Cook. Could be a big and very expensive day for GM Ted Thompson.
The Glennon deal really has no impact on Rodgers. Following figures all from overthecap.com. Rodgers' deal has over 10 million more guaranteed (54 million) than the currently reported value of the Glennon contract (43.5 million...and a good chance that less than half of that will be guaranteed). Even though Rodgers signed that deal four years ago it still ranks 3rd in total value (Cutler, Luck...and Cutler is about to lose the back end of his contract), 1st in guaranteed value (even more guaranteed money than the Luck deal) and the average yearly cap number ranks 5th. It was a fair deal, still is a fair deal, and Thompson probably won't feel bad for Rodgers when he'll be earning 19.8 million in 2018 and 20 million in 2019. Yes, those numbers could end up being 7 to 8 million dollars less than what the top paid QB will be making in 2019 but Rodgers had already long collected that guaranteed 54 million which was a top number back in 2013 (still is the top number 4 years later which is pretty incredible).
I had Cook in the 7 million range but all indications this morning was that I overshot his value. Sounds like he'll fit more in the 5 to 5.5 million range. Will be very happy to see him back, another year of Richard Rodgers being the primary TE receiving target is just too hard on the eyes.
Will be very interested to see if the Perry deal tops 11 million in average value.

Hyde often had more opportunity to make plays because he was the designated target for opposing offenses.
I don't know how you can say that? It looked like the entire cornerback group was a designated target for opposing offenses.
Yah, as one comedian put it "the NFCC game was watched by 46 million people and the Packer secondary".
Worth noting again:
These, including Hyde's, are some pretty gruesome numbers.
A spanking new corner in the 1st round, sign Davon House, and add a healthy Q Rollins/Gunther and I think GB's secondary is looking much better.
Perry signing is huge and it'll be interesting to see the numbers. Really good player and the only real question about him has always been his ability to stay healthy.

I thought Cook's value was going to be capped around $5m, only b/c he already has such a long track record of mediocrity with Tennessee and St Louis. He had a pretty good half season with Rodgers but the league has already seen what happens to guys like Jennings and Jones without Rodgers. So I figured he wasn't going to be in high demand.
And I saw Perry got $11-12m per year. I was thinking it'd $9-10m but after all the premier pass rushers were tagged or resigned, Perry became the top pass rusher on the market. And I know the narrative on him is a one year wonder in a contract year but he actually was a stud in the 2015 playoffs (3.5 sacks), so goes back further than just 2016. I just think he struggled with injuries early in his career as wells as the position switch, so took him longer to realize his potential. But he's played pretty well the last 22 games (16.5 sacks in 2015 playoffs and 2016 regular season and playoffs). He's also a very good run defender and is only 26. Yeah there is risk but there is also huge risk in letting him go and being left with no pass rush.

Arguing that any CB on the market isn't an upgrade over what we have ends with this graphic. So yes, House would help our secondary in some capacity.
I'm ok with Hyde walking. He's limited and isn't going to be worth the $4-5m he gets on the open market.
packerboi posted:WTMJ just confirmed as well. Packers are re-signing Perry.
Now the question is, how much??
I really like that deal at $10m. Saw $11-12m on twitter but damn, $10m is as good as we could have hoped.
A little surprised they were able to keep Perry. Not really surprised the deal got done today. As noted, that's the way Thompson works. Little fanfare, and a deal that works for both sides.
Also, good to hear a Cook deal is close.

That could be, and has been, said about CM3 as well the past few years.
Yeah that's not too bad, I expected 9 mil per year.
Tretter will sign with the Browns later today. Wanted to keep him in GB. I'm sure the Browns are way overpaying him to the point Ted had to let him walk.
