This absolutely frees us up to add a contract to the books, be it via trade or signing.  I imagine they won't add anyone else until after the draft to see what the needs are, but if we don't get who we want at either Edge or WR in the draft then we could use that little cushion to fill it in.

Bruce Irons - Packers FTW -  The Packers pushed a lot of cap hits into the next 2-4 years. Having 4 top 60 picks from this draft playing on rookie deals during that window could really help them balance their checkbook. They're working aggressively, but there's some balances in there, too.

Can Watkins play ST? NFL stats suggests he doesn't.

If he cannot land the starting WR gig and unable to play ST he should be one of the first cuts in the roster cutdown. It's basically starting gig or bust for him. He would be useless as a depth piece.

If he’s healthy, I don’t see how he isn’t instantly one of the top options in that room. He should be physical enough to block in this offense and has the skill set to play outside. Who knows how he gels with 12 but he has mostly been slowed down by health, not lack of ability.

We’ve got the premier foot guy outside of Rex Ryan in the building, so hopefully  he can keep from blowing a tire this season.
