Cowboys, Redskins, Raiders Maybe?, Giants, Jets, are good bets, especially the skins considering how they spend now WITH a cap!

Washington and Dallas will easily turn into the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox of the NFL if there is no salary cap. It's for reasons like that why the cap was implemented, so lower revenue teams could stay competitive with the higher revenue ones.

Green Bay would probably be able to hold their own considering they're still easily in the top half of the league in overall revenue, but they'd still have to draft relatively well to compete with a lot of the big spenders out there.

What is the point in them removing the cap? WHY!?

Just a bargaining tactic by the Players union. Both sides know that if there was no cap certain teams couldn't keep up. By making threats, they can get those teams with more limited funds to pressure those that don't. Hoping they can push by a new CBA with as big a chunk for the players.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

From what I read earlier the owners want the CBA numbers to be lowered because some teams are not that strong financially. For this reason the owners want the players to accept a lowner CBA.The players have said they won't go along with that. So the owners feel they need to let the CBA expire and have a lock out until the players lower their demands.

Also, the TV networks are questioning if they want to pay the same money for their contracts as last time, much less increase it. This looks like it has the making of being brutal, especially if the players end up with a lawyer, trying to make a name for himself, leading them.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

No guarantees, but the CBA is over after this year, meaning next year is uncapped, and so will each year after that until a new CBA is reached. they may come to an agreement before next year, they may not. there could be a continuation of the cap, and there may never be another cap. it's all up in the air right now.

Zero2Cool (42m) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (19h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (23h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now
