Is the idea that the young guys will develop so much better now that they'll surpass their would have been collective output? Or just that we might also add other things? I don't think this on it's own makes us better this year really at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tretter, Burnett and Whitehead too I looked up that tweet and almost all of them are "they were trying to trade him for weeks." Lol. Everyone's so smart these days online. Maybe they were but if it was really physicals day, well that's really what it was I'm sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanedorf Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 He'd have to pass a physical to consummate any trade These moves are usually an amalgam of multiple factors and teams are super- secretive about all of this think of it this way: When your gf dumped you, she probably gave you a viable reason. But it wasn't the only reason and it might not have been the biggest reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfman Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 8 hours ago, Leader said: Herman: My quick thoughts on the Daniels release: He’s coming off a tough injury and was due $10.7 million. By cutting him you save $8.3 million. The truth is when they made their huge free agent signings they needed to find a way to save somewhere else. This is a part of that. It’s possible Daniels wanted an extension & things were at an impasse. If they felt coming off of injury he wasn’t worth the $10 mil contract they would want to move on. The truth is that this move hurts the defense as he was undoubtedly one of their best players when healthy. Jimmy Graham would have been a better cut prior to his bonus being paid. I like Mike Daniels, but obviously they think that Lowry, Adams and Lancaster are going to be fine, maybe Keke too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he signs with the Patriots, it's Fire Gute for real for me. Weren't you the one shouting about how he should be cut in the off season? I"m just asking but thought it was you.

Sheldon Richardson was a player I was hoping for as a replacement for Daniels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreatZepp Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 For everyone saying cut Tramon instead. That man fooled us once when just about everyone thought he was done the first time we let him go, he’s stuck around for a reason. He’s mentally sound and unfortunately the reality is if he was cut the Packers are an injury away from have some big concerns at corner 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrimiv Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Not getting overly worked up about this. Peak Daniels was a very good player, but wasn't elite. He's now in decline, talks tough more than makes plays in big games, and he's not a great scheme fit. Can't say I expected him to be released, or even like it, but it's not a shocking move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
