jleisher Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Maybe you guys can help me? If just if the Packers need to clear space, if they traded David Bakhtiari, how much of his cap hit would stay on the Packers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they trade him, his dead cap is $26.3M. They're not trading him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAH1223 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 On 12/30/2021 at 3:45 PM, Les Punting said: With the inevitable reorganization of the roster in '22, it might be useful to explicitly identify the full universe of realistic cap-clearing moves. Estimating GB's maximum achievable cap space (MACS) will make clear what is and isn't possible in terms of '22 roster construction. Cap relief in '22 depends almost entirely on a dozen premium contracts, adjustments to which generate the following approximate savings: (*Savings through extension are rough estimates) If there are other notable moves that have been overlooked, or if the projected savings are inaccurate, please append. By most estimates, GB stands approximately $55m over the '22 cap. As can be seen, they're capable of clearing considerably more than that number. The obvious restructures (DB, Clark, Jones) clear $16m. All the potential extensions clear $40m. A few cuts (e.g. Cobb, ZSmith, Lowry, Crosby) clear $30m. As an example, all the bolded moves above would leave GB more than $30m under the cap, with Rodgers still under center. That seems sufficient to re-up Adams (assuming a reasonable '22 cap figure) and several of their own free agents, pay their RFA's and fill out the rest of the roster. When viewed through the lens of achievable cap space, GB's '22 situation seems fine. If they can ink Rodgers to a cap-friendly number, they will, with a few exceptions, be able to mostly "run back" the '21 team if they so choose.

Malfatron Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 How much of a cap hit if we released everyone? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzPackfan Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The first 4 moves I expect to see are as follows: Release Z Smith and P Smith Restructure Clark Extend Alexander. Those 4 moves get us under the cap by the start of the league year Depending on the confidence of Bahktiari’s knee, they could also restructure his deal. Other cuts could be Cobb/Lewis/Lowry/Turner but those wouldn’t be the priority I’d say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainmaker90 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 If we resign Aaron and Davante, who does it likely mean we’d have to let go? Both Smiths and ? It’s a real interesting decision. Do you roll the dice and see if we can win with Aaron/Davante but with a lesser team around them or Do you roll the dice with Love, keep more pieces and have a ton more draft capital?

I'm more inclined to only keep 1 of Rodgers or Adams. Both together just lead to a singular flow on offense that just got shut down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t mind tagging Davante for a year to give Jordan the best opportunity to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact the NFL promotes such "wipe the table top clear and start over" moves because it promotes job market fluidity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He goes into 'lazy' mode where he just targets Davante and nobody else. I get it because Davante is a super star but good defensive teams will find a way to shut Davante down in the playoffs and Aaron seems to continue to still target him and miss other open players on the field. Personally, I am just hoping that Aaron does NOT retire and we move him for some assets. I think the team loses a few core and depth pieces this off-season and is not going to be the same anyway. Build around the likes of Clark, Gary, Alexander, Stokes. Give Jordan a year as starter to see what he can do in a rebuild year. He won't have Rodgers looking down his shoulder and no pressure of being in win-now team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he stay through the Love growing era when he can go to an established QB, probably get paid more and be in sunshine. Heck, he might take less to play with Herbert and his buddy Keenan Allen in LA. Edited January 24, 2022 by NFLGURU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonKarman Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 So according to Ken Ingalls we need to make around 71M in order to have enough space for picks, PS and have some in-season money without signing anyone except for ERFAs: The space we can make with cuts/trades/restructures: Cut/trade: -Rodgers: -19.95 -Z Smith: -15.28 -Cobb: -6.86 -Crosby: -2.40 -Lewis: -2.45 Restructure: -Bakhtiari: -8.19 -Clark: -9.54 -Jones: -2.88 That's 67.55M of cap space created. Then you can: -Cut Preston Smith: 12.5M -Extend Preston Smith: 6M aprox -Extend Jaire: 7M aprox -Cut Dean Lowry: 3.93M I don't think we are cutting Billy Turner or Adrian Amos. Maybe we can extend Amos. I'd offer a 4Y/20M deal to Douglas and see if he bites. He could have a 2M cap hit, which is pretty affordable. It doesn't make sense to extend Elgton capwise as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
