Packers 2020 Offseason Thread - Packers Talking Extension with Aaron Jones

Can we just trade our 2019 first round draft pick for OBJ?

Don't mess it up by telling them it's Gary...just say. "We will send you a first round pick (whisper from 2019)" and hope they don't check the fine print.

I'd be cool with giving up our first for OBJ, but I was the one advocating that we'd give up a mid-round pick for Antonio Brown last year and he legit imploded so what tf do I know.

I have been thinking maybe that is a CTE case? Had a friend in high school that got too many concussions and later in life, he was as mercurial as they come and would have bouts of insanity. I think that could be the case with Brown.

Anyone care to notice common traits of every FA signing ? Character and leadership. And even if Gute was tricked into smoking crystal meth, OBJ's cap number is 14.25 million and the current Packer cap space is somewhere around 10.8 million with a full rookie draft class to sign. Long live circle, circle, triangle, square.

I think in fact it's 10.8 counting the rookie signings, so it's not that complicated, we need to clear 3.5M, so basically if we send Taylor (5.4M) or Gary (3.6M) in this very same deal, we are set... Then we can bring Clay back to replace Gary and play some ILB too.

What if it's 1st + Gary or Taylor for OBJ + #97? They have 2 3rd, that's their lowest.

Just keep ignoring the character issue guys. Keep ignoring what Gute has preached every chance he gets since the day he was hired. Ignore what every single player has praised about the locker room. I'm sure everyone involved will gladly toss all that away to sign OBJ. Unreal.

Wasn't Adams saying he would love to have OBJ in GB?

Pass on OBJ. No interest in coke heads with inflated egos.

It cost us nothing other than the contract to sign Rison.

Antonio Brown is potentially literally insane....but with that said, maybe he has been humbled enough where it would be worth a total no risk contract

Post #657 » by **MickeyDavis** » Mon Apr 20, 2020 6:44 pm

Rison was only here for a handful of games, had a couple of nice playoff catches and was then not brought back.

I remember my personal impression that he was more of a decoy than a real threat

Marquis Lee just cut by the Jags. If he is healthy, that would be an excellent slot wide receiver to pick up
