Sam Shields really killed Packer expectations. Sam Shields and Ryan Grant. Tramon Williams too (UDFA from another team)? It's almost like UDFA's have actually had an impact. #Atari Bigby.

Arthur Penske Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Jordan Matthews visiting the Patriots today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_gb Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 For those that thought maybe the Packers and Matthews already had some type of agreement lined up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Matthews is gonna have to take a 1yr prove it type deal. If he's looking to repair his value and cash in he's gonna need to sign to a team where he'll actually get some legit reps. GB has no clear WR2 on their roster right now whereas the Patriots are already deep at WR with Cooks/Edelman/Hogan/Dorsett/Mitchell/Britt as well as Gronk.

Yea I'm not worrued about losing Matthews to NE or most other places unless GB just never makes any offer at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like AZ already made an offer to Matthews according to Rapsheet so he must be healthier than some thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanfb Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Speaking of Matthews, says AZ gave him an "offer" so it appears he's perhaps close enough alone to get offers. Wonder if we extended him a number and this is simply a Wilkerson situation where he's making the rounds before picking an offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he's on recent video running 50 yard routes for Jordan Rodgers. So I'm sure hes not far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they're bringing in Butler probably means there wasn't a whole lot of interest generated on Matthews part. He's the anti Bennett/Graham when it comes to the list of QBs he's had. Rodgers/Brady probably appeal more than Bradford/Glennon to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another bust of a year and he's probably another Eddie Lacy. Promising start to a career who only got a 1 year deal for 2nd contract and was out of the league or a minimum guy. If ARI was offering him a lucrative 3-4 year deal I'm sure he would have signed there. I'm sure they offered a similar 1-2 year deal like Butler got and he wasn't interested. A year with Brady/Rodgers has a much better chance to receive his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
