He's played in just over half of the possible games in his career, but only a ~third of them in the last 2 years. Seems a likely camp cut. Has a $3.7m hit next year but about $2.6m is dead. I'd probably give him one more off-season to get healthy and see if he has anything to offer in TC, but at this point, he's fighting for a roster spot. He can't be part of your plan for next year.

Rob Demovsky - So no Stokes or Jaire Alexander. Packers can make moves / elevations by 3 pm today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why he hasn't gotten a chance yet. Maybe now it'll be forced upon us to play him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had so many promising careers derailed by them, if you're going to use RAS as a top criteria for draft prospects, you're going to be dealing with a lot of maxed out athletes that generate some serious torque when they play. Any sort of advantage they gain there could be a serious advantage over the rest of the league. Are you still holding out hope for Stokes? Or are even you getting the sense he's done in this league?

packfanfb Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Packers are just trying to out-tank the Vikings. They go with a third string QB so we knock out two CBs. It's chess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't in the groundskeeping business, yet you don't think they spend big money to make sure they have the best playing surface for the climate they're in? They have money, therefore they can procure any service they wish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying he's a cap casualty, but if he struggles with injuries in TC than I think there's a good chance he's on the outside looking in when that roster crunch comes in August.

Yeah, it's kind of on Stokes to get healthy this offseason and be ready to earn a job in 2024. I suspect the Packers will draft at least one corner fairly high, and then another one in the middle rounds. There will be a lot of competition there next year.
