We have a guy just like that on his way out of GB to a team that will actually give him a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only difference is we started sooner. We've signed a veteran tight end the past two years, and Wilkerson was a pre-free agency tampering free agent who we signed to a one year deal. We didn't land any of the top top players. It's not like we went out and signed Johnson or something. So far the only difference has been Gute's willingness to get RID of players, not add them. THATS BECAUSE WE HAVE NO MONEY. It's all tied up in guys, many of whom aren't worth it but we have no viable alternatives. If Gute had $60 million, Robinson and Johnson would be Packers right now, along with Graham and Wilkerson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Haven't actually checked but I'd guess any team with a franchise QB doesn't have money. Patriots just lost their LT. Franchise guys on rookie deals excluded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think Janis should get a couple jump balls thrown his way every game if he gets 1v1, if nothing else to force the D to take 2 defenders deep when he's in. I think Janis is this Gens Bill Schroeder and could succeed with a Favre type slinger, but ARod doghouses you if you make a mental error, and Janis appears to do a lot of that.

Really the biggest story is about the guys due big roster bonuses like Dez and Mathieu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember liking him when he first entered the NFL. I thought he was going to be the Eagles outside receiver but for whatever reason they forced him into the slot and then screwed him over again by trading him to the Bills. If we're looking for an affordable, young no.2 WR then he would be absolutely an ideal candidate. His production in the first two years of his career is nothing scoff at. A team friendly Hayward type deal would be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketchup Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I’d be all for Matthews. Always been a fan of his. He shouldn’t cost anything prohibitive either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one's pretty much set in stone with another team, then 4pm hits...and they sign with a rogue team. I think that year he was definitely an Eagle, then 4pm hits....he's a Brown.

He has no deep ability and no real contested catch ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's like a poor man's decker. Reminds me of that old buffalo WR who was 6-5 and only played the slot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
