If Jenkins feels scorned by the Packers for not reupping him during last season, then fuck him. He knows how this business works, and I for one do not like hearing about him accepting less from the Packers but it had to be when he wanted it. That doesn't make him righteous, it makes him greedy. So go get your money Cullen, we got your best years anyway. The only one that gets to hold the Packers hostage is Rodgers, and in my opinion, he's worth more than his paycheck would indicate.

That's a little harsh, don't you think? It seems to me like our FO doesn't see the value in bringing him back at his age. He may as well cash in before retirement. I personally hope he bleeds them for as much money as possible.

As I mentioned in my previous post, is making maybe 5 more million over the length of his contract really worth going to a shit team and falling into irrelevancy? It may not even be that much difference in money. I know the Packers likely don't want him back, but c'mon Jenkins, you can do better than that. I guarantee there's a better team interested in you than the WrinkleSkins. Heck, even Dallas would likely be a better fit, and you'd still get a big pay day.

Not when he's trying to drive a wedge between the fans and Packer management. All that shit is calculated by the players and their agents. He didn't get what he wants, when he wanted, so now he pouts and goes to the highest bidder.

Apparently many players are that way. While I can't fully understand all the factors that go into their decision, I would want to be playing for a competitor. At this point, there's got to be more to it then just a source of money. I don't know. Good for him if and when he gets his massive check though.

I can see a guy wanting to go to a big city if that's their thing. And if they get more money from that team too, that's also fine. What I don't understand is why anyone would willingly go to Washington. They're the joke of the league. They wrestled that title away from the Raiders about two years ago, in my opinion. Yeah, they'll give you a hefty contract, but ask any of those guys if they thought it was worth it. I doubt they'll say it was. If I was a free agent player, I'd avoid Washington like the plague. It's a black hole.

The last Packers vet FA the Redskins were interested in was Clifton... and he signed with the Packers :)

Clifton went to the Redskins to get the market value for himself... and then asked the Packers if they would match it (though it was very strongly rumored he didn't want to leave for a couple of reason)

Just saying Jenkins could be doing the same thing... though it's sounds like Jenkins is more open to the idea of leaving and the Packers need for DE isn't as strong as last year need was for LT (which was before the draft so Bulaga wasn't drafted yet and Tausher was a FA as well)

How is he trying to drive a wedge between the fans and management? He didn't even get a contract offer from the Packers. That means they don't want him anymore. Now he has to go somewhere else. He's expressed disappointment, but I don't think he's pouted or said anything divisive.

I haven't heard much of anything either, and certainly nothing to suggest he's trying to cause strife between the organization and fans. He stated many times that he wanted to play for Green Bay. They haven't reciprocated in any way. If he can't play where he wants to play, why not make some money before retirement?

I have no hard feelings, and like I said before, I hope he makes as much as possible off of the Skins or whichever team signs him.
