And Crosby may be the only option if the young kickers don't work out. But Lewis? There's probably room for him. He'd be a good one for the young pups to learn a bit from. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm not following what the best options could be here. It's not like the Packers are going to give Love a one year audition with a quarter of the salary cap is wrapped up in dead cap hits. They're obviously giving him a 2 year minimum audition. I guess you could make the case that if Love struggled next year (likely), what's his open market value?$10M per year, for a year or two? Maybe Gute is lowballing and plans on offering a 2 year extension for $25M or something like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested a while ago, if you believe in hm give him 5 for 150 and 75 guaranteed. Might be a bit rich, but if he hits it's a bargain for a few years before you have to redo it. If you wait and he plays well, you are in for close to 50 year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm okay with bringing all three back, but as of now they would all have to work for peanuts. They're being retired this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB could do 23 as is, 24 on 5th year for around $20M, 25 on non-exclusive FT for mid $30'sM, with 26 as another FT option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't pick up the 5th year and have to franchise him it's a heck of a lot more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure. That's why a short/ long deal is probably being discussed before exercising the 5th year option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how the whole Lamar thing went, I'd argue you should really avoid the franchise tag and just get your most important player signed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PackFan13 Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 (edited) Alot of money to pay someone that hasn't played. I think they pick up the 5th year. Not an ideal solution anyway you look at it. No way you sign him up multiple years without seeing him play a season. Edited May 2, 2023 by PackFan13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
