flyers0909 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Sounds like he wanted Vegas so a 1st and 2nd is nice. All that aside I'm gonna miss him. Seemed like an awesome guy and the connection him and Rodgers had was special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{Family Ghost} Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I didn't realize that when the "last dance" stuff was going on that it was Adams that was the one that probably knew he wasn't coming back to GB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That contract is stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howler Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) I want David Bell in the 3rd. Seems like a solid depth guy. Edited March 18, 2022 by Howler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or what you are seeing is the beginning of WR's pricing themselves out of these kind of deals. I would say your money positions should still be QB, LT (for right handed qbs) CB, and edge. I love Adams, I wanted him to be here, but not at that money. I'll be interested to see what team has more success over the next few seasons, granted LV plays in that crazy stacked AFC west. I think getting a vet or two, using the draft, and most importantly moving the ball around can still make us a very successful offense. This doesn't feel like it was an over night decision. You will be seeing the direction the Packers take with WRs in this offseason. To your point though, The team did lean on 12 making people better, but Gutey also had a lot of areas to fix, and well. a HOF qb does make his players better.

Although davante is in a different league than those guys and I feel his game will be good for a few more years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Adams will be/would have been darn productive in GB providing he stayed healthy and played 14-15 games. It would have been the back end of that deal ...years 4-5 that would have been rough. If Rodgers is in GB for 2 maybe 3 years, but Adams wanted a 5 year deal, the timelines just don't match up well. Sucks for those first 2 years, but if GB can use the cap space well and hit on the picks...it should be better in the long run and may be better in the short run.
