Kupp would instantly become the best WR on the roster. I wish I was kidding

[MVP2110]

I don't know what you guys are doing with Kupp but do you not realize he missed six games last year? His 17 game pace was 103 receptions, 1097 yards, and 9 touchdowns. He had three 100 yard games, a ninety yard game, and an eighty yard game.

If you don't want to sign him because of injury concerns I get that. It's fair. But you can't say that he isn't still good, or anywhere near washed.

Been following the thread, and had to log in just to throw support on RS's take here - if we can get Kupp on a reasonable deal, DO IT.

Kupp was an incredible mentor for Puka, that's very well documented, he remains an active, tenacious run blocker and downfield blocker when others catch the ball, and homie still has amazing hands and sense for the moment.

Last night I got sucked into watching a Youtube clip, something like Aaron Rodgers throws dimes for 30 minutes. Kupp would come here for the synergistic impact - he still carries a gravity as a zone beater, and I would love to see how that loosens things up when Watson is healthy, Reed is doing his thing, Wicks isn't catching the ball, and Doubs remains unconcussed.

The Packers last year were excellent at beating zone. They struggled against man, especially after Watson went out. Go look at Jayden Reed's splits against man or zone, it's a night and day difference in Success rates. Wicks their only WR who could consistently get open vs man coverage

Kupp averaged 3 catches for 32 yards over the Rams final 8 games. I would not be trading for or handing him big money as a FA.

No is suggesting the Packers should.

I agree that I would not trade for him or give him big money. But if he wanted to join us for a 1 year small deal I would do it. I think he goes to Detroit to stay in a dome and play with Goff again.

I mean, I think the numbers you threw out kind of speak for themselves, right? Even pace adjusted, needing ~140 targets to get to 1,000 yards just tells me that the dude just doesn't have any burst any more. He can't get separation, can't fight for extra yards like he used to. Sure, maybe he'd be the best hands on the team still, but that can't be the only thing he brings to the table. All the numbers I'm seeing indicate the usual historical decline of a 31-32 year old, oft injured receiver. 2016 Jordy was great and then absolutely fell off the face of the earth the next season. It happens.

[Turk Nowitzki]

I'm a little surprised Ojulari is still out there unsigned. He must be asking for a ton of money or something.

Other than him you're left picking through a bunch of edge guys who are older, injured, or both.

[Frank Nova]

Shake up the whole conference and trade for Trey Hendrickson. There’s a golden opportunity to strengthen arguably our biggest weakness, just do it already.

Hi All. Hope everyone is doing well

I am hoping to make it up to the Packers vs Eagles game next year (Big Eagles Fan)

Is there any hope at all of finding wheelchair accessible seats in the 300 section? I know the schedule has not officially even been released yet but want to be on top of it. Don't know if they are purchasable on the third party market and how much the mark-up is going to be on them.

The only time I been up to lambeau was when I won the it from the Packers Drawing and it was an indoor club so had no worries about accessibility. [[also got to be on field before game which was amazing experience coming out of the tunnel before the game]] [[To bad the packers lost it was the TNF two years ago when half the crowd was det lion fans]]

I would call or email the Packers ticket office 1-866-752-1265 or tickets@packers.com.

I don't know how accessible seats work as far as sales or resale. If you end up buying on the secondary market it won't be cheap. It will also likely be a primetime game.

Yeah no doubt i am guessing 500 minimal if i buy them on secondary market. Why couldn't I just win the lottery again.
Nice to see you are still kicking around.

Packers might be sniffing around on Dante Fowler.

Had no idea he was even still in the league. Would rather have Von for a year.

Ironically he had his best sack total last year. I guess for a situational pass rusher it’s fine, depending on what the deal looks like. Rather just draft a guy.

Fowler at least produced double digit sacks last year. I'd take my chances with him over 36 year old Von Miller.

[MVP2110]

Fowler is basically a pass rush only guy at this point. But if you could get him on a 1 year deal for a reasonable amount he'd be fine. If you use him smartly then he could be a nice piece. He would have led Green Bay in pressures and sacks last season

With Banks deal being at worse a one year 27 mil deal (assuming it is true that his only guaranteed money is the signing bonus) I would try to use the money we have now to extend Tom and/or Rasheed Walker if possible.

He looked good in a limited role in Washington last year. But Ojulari is still my #1 guy. 24 years old, coming into his prime. Maybe I am missing something, but it's shocking he is still out there.

Yes on the face of it they can say only $27 million guaranteed but unless you think they're going to cut him after a year he's going to see over half of the money in this contract in the first two years. That 3rd year is the obvious "he's probably not getting that money as is" point. Paying him a $9.5 million roster bonus and then a $13.1 million base salary in 2027 seems unlikely unless he's playing at an All-Pro level.

Definitely a cost of doing business on Day 1 of free agency contract.

Yea, he's almost assuredly locked in for 2 years barring any sort of disaster. And even cutting after 2 years would leave them with $13.5 mil of dead cap, so if he's decent I expect he's here for 3 years and then they move on at that point
