"Will Aaron Jones get paid before Kenny Clark?"

Bigs who can consistently beat whoever lines up across from them are pretty rare.

It looks like the coach is trying to implement a modern day Denver running game (plug and play RBs with a passing twist)

My guess is Clark cashes, Jones walks.

If it's a matter of one stays and one goes, that's definitely the outcome. Bigger picture is Bak is another pending FA. If you can only keep two of them Jones is the odd man out. But maybe that $3 million from Taylor will be quickly used for front loading a new deal for Jones?

I guess I left some stuff unsaid-

My priorities would place Aaron Jones last among Clark, Baktiari and King. Right now (according to OTC) Packers have 39M space for next year. On Sportrac I saw Clark alone listed as an 18M/year market value, with A. Jones having 13M market value.

I need to see another year or at least first half of the season before I can decide what should be done with King. If I'm deciding today I'd put Jones before King. 

Yeah Clark is going to command big money. Probably part of the reason they restructured Lane Taylor, gotta squeeze out every cent they can in 2020 so his cap hit beyond 20 isn’t unmanageable. I agree on the lack of urgency for RB, BUT I will point out that in times where haven’t had a featured back (I.e. no Jones, Lacy, Grant) it’s been glaring and obvious. Priorities should be Clark, Bakh, Jones, King. 

I think this is the reason why I’m optimistic about Lazard actually being something. He just seemed to have that IT factor in key moments. Rodgers wants to feed him the ball also, I think there’s something to be said for that as well, kid will certainly get chances to prove himself.

Well, you know IcelandAir lets you stop over in Iceland for up to two weeks before going to anywhere else with no additional penalty cost...  maybe someone iced some Icelandic cookies? (Iceland is waaaay cool, BTW.)

Flew in there on way back home from Paris, they really go all out in trying to get you to stay there and buy excursions .... however, it was 42 degrees when we flew in at 7 AM .... in July. That was a bit of a deterrent to staying.
