There are probably free agents who take less to play in Texas and Florida than anywhere else in the league. No state income tax kinda has that effect... Now you quote me and say, "Touché." Make sure you add that little doohickey above the E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part I don't agree with is setting the artificial goalpost of age and using it to prove your point. I already admitted I should have gone 28/older to account for players who entered the draft older. Quote Oh and by the way don't get so worked up. Your heart will thank you later. Don't you talk about my heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh...it's not though. It's a major factor in a suite of many factors. Every day people take less money at different positions for a host of reasons. This is true in the NFL as well.

When 10 million from the Packers and 10 million from a Florida/Texas team count the same amount against the salary cap, it's an additional reason to sign in Florida or Texas over Green Bay. That's simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packfanfb Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 FYI, I've seen a very unconfirmed rumor (just among some fans as far as I can tell, no actual source that I'm aware of) that Jordan Matthews is visiting GB. Not sure about any validity to it, but it's been floating out there for about the last hour or so. Let's say for a sec it's true, thoughts?

The biggest signings in Green Bay History happened to be players over the age of 28 and both contributed to our defense greatly. Please see Reggie White and Charles Woodson. Age doesn't dictate whether they were long time contributors to this team or not or the type of impact they had on this team. This question is complete nonsense. Thanks bru. 28 is an arbitrary number @HorizontoZenith decided to pull out of his rear once he was proven wrong about Gutey signings some Free agents.

No, no....I'm not ragging on him. Mentioned a day or so ago - somewhere around here - that while a good NFL WR (and thats a rare breed) he lacked separation speed. Outside that blurb (which I readily admit is not much) I dont know much else about his game i.e. route running, catching skills.....and such.
