Per his presser. As usual,they couldn't afford him. Would have helped a great deal with the Hardy mess. Him and C J.would have been interesting. Peppers said he did consider coming back...but I guess money talks when your nearing the end of a career. Would have been nice to have him this year.

Main reason he went to GB was to play 3-4 OlB. Money helped though.

I agree that his price tag was way to high...It was just a dream of having a hint of a pass rush this year.Did R R ever admit to checking him out...I don't recall.

As long as Gettleman is at the helm, unless something flukey happens (like this year with Hardy AND Alexander) we will probably always have a decent pass rush.

20/20 but it will turn into a better deal then the 1 year 13 mil that Hardy got.

 

I can't really blame DG for what's happening with Hardy. Had he been playing and performed like he did just last season he'd be worth every bit of that 13 million. Peppers on the other hand has almost no chance to live up to the $26 million deal he got, he hasn't been elite for some time now.

No it won't.

 

 

The 13 is off the books at the conclusion of this NFL season.

 

 

If the Packers cut JP at the end of the NFL season, they will have 5million in dead money next season.

      He's a free agent next year actually. Wish we had the balls to bring him in to compete, looking around the league though he might get a legit starting offer or at least an offer to compete somewhere that he would control his own destiny.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      I don't love Bryce Young.  I DO understand his abilities as a QB. I dont expect him to do things that are beyond that. I also dont hold it against him.  The ability to throw 40 yards in with the velocity to take your receivers hands off, doesn't have the impact on the game as people think it does.  I think it's a pretty silly thing to even attempt to debate, when the ones crying about it doesn't add context.   Bryce can and does throw deep.  His last TD to T-Mac was a thing of beauty,   and the ball placement was incredible,  especially for the distance of the throw.  I get it y'all want to talk all day about his physical limitations, rather than look at what he does, and does well.  We wouldn't be playing meaningful football in December without him.  That is a fact.  Bryce doesn't fit the mold of my type of QB, but I don't hold that against him. That is beyond stupid.
