No way i'd trade a first for DK (even in this weak draft) a 2nd or 3rd? no problem.

Jaire and a first for DK is not worth it and I'm a huge DK fan.

Jaire and a first for DK and a second round pick sure.

If it's Doubs and a third or Wicks and a third I pull the trigger.

Not trading a first with a player for DK without getting picks back.

And it was clearly a ridiculous overpay at the time, let alone in hindsight. His contract alone was too much, to say nothing of the picks they gave up.

And Metcalf eats like a 4-year-old who accidentally gets left in charge of a candy shop in some sort of low-budget comedy that might air on a weird subsidiary over-the-air movie channel. Doubs and two 3rd-rouders.

Id be cool with DK for Doubs and a mid round pick.

Adams getting cap cut and simply signing as a FA would be even better.

Yeah, not interested in the first going out in a DK deal when you could get Adams or even Cooper Kupp for significantly less draft capital

Well Kupp and Adams are 4-5years older than DK.

DK gives us a bigger window but I'm still not giving up a first for him now when we should've just drafted him. We passed on him three times in that draft. Two of the picks being Jenkins and Gary at least.

Of course they are older, but I think they fill the need better than using a first for DK. I just don’t think DK has been an impact player for the last couple of years. Solid sure, but not the game changer he was when he came in the league.

The Packers need a deep threat much more then they need another underneath guy.

That DK report is not credible, with the guy saying GB is willing to part with the first because they’ll basically get a first back by trading Jaire.

I thought he added context that he misspoke/typed. The idea wasn't they'll get a first for Jaire, but probably a top 100 pick. So a 2nd or 3rd to help offset losing the first.

In the last two days, I've read more talk of DK going to the Raiders. Reunite with Pete Carroll, who got good mileage out of DK. More smoke and mirrors?

Interesting take on Gary only playing 60% of defensive snaps. Maybe this is why the "game wrecker" has still yet to get double digit sacks in a season.

McDuffie's a replacement level dude and I'm never enthused at inking those guys to more than minimum type deals. I guess Hafley probably likes him for the familiarity, but he was our 4th best ILB last season. Meh.

Matches Malone · Post #1879 » by **Matches Malone** » Mon Mar 3, 2025 5:47 pm

It's a fine depth move, and he knows the system. I think his deal will look more palatable with the cap going up. Still think they should add to that area via draft or FA. Maybe we get lucky, and Hopper shows something this year.

I think he is just your classic reliable jack of all trades including special teams, a guy you can count on and you know what you have. If that is a 4M per year deal, there are kickers making that kind of money these days
