Packers don't tender James Jones (making him an UFA)

We have some of the best wr's in the league we just need a QB to get them the ball.

This is the truth. Those receivers from the Packers have Aaron Rodgers throwing them the ball. How is it that it seems every receiver on that team looks like five-star talent? The truth is it's not that James Jones is a good receiver, but that Aaron Rodgers is a superb QB. We have good receivers as well, and Gettis and LaFell are probably better receivers than James Jones.

I think James Jones is a talented player that could certainly explode some where. It's interesting to talk about adding WR's to this team. Drafting Green or Jones, or signing James Jones. But somewhere deep down in me I have a feeling that Armanti Edwards is out to prove something. You can't deny his athletic talent. I was really surprised to hear how he was treated by the coaches, very unprofessional if true.

David Gettis has special written all over him and Brandon LaFell was becoming more solid as the days went by last season. Not to mention Steve Smith whom I believe is still a top WR.

    • It wasn't a his sack production, it was about his skill set, build, and scheme fit. He's a six foot tall 280 pound DT. He's best used as an interior pass rushing specialist. He can't play the nose in a 3-4 and he doesn't have the length or burst to play he end either. He just wasn't a scheme fit. He'd be a good roster piece as a rotational pass rushing specialist DT to bring in on passing downs in an even defensive front. But you can't hand out a 3 year/$45M contract for that either. Tha type of contract means you have to try to find starter snap numbers for him and that's a problem in a 3-4 front. Hell, it's a problem in a 4-3 front too. That's why the Chiefs were willing to let him walk.
    • Quite a few people argued we way overpaid high end starter money for a guy that was basically a capable backup at best. It was a bad move facilitated by a need to save face after missing out on Williams. It is what it is man. We aren't being paid to carry Dan Morgan's water. It'll be alright.
    • Who else at DT was available coming off a 6.5 sack season, that was relatively affordable?  We took the Milton Williams money and added Turk AND Bobby Brown III. You can't predict soft tissue, and surgery in this case. Part of the business.
