Espn is now reporting that the Bills are looking for a trade partner for Safety Jarius Byrd, So do we throw a mid to high round draft pick for him? He is in a franchise tag year so we would have to get a deal done before all would happen. I was just wondering what others thought of the idea of bringing him in? I say we pass because it will cost alot of money for his new contract. |
 Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be :) |

Not Ted's M.O.
He's not going to spend a lot of money this early in the season, way to many current Packers whos contracts need to be addressed by next year.
I think The Organization as a whole are happy with the talent they have, just got to get them all back healthy and on the field.
Now if a team would straight up release a proven vet at Safety, and Ted decided that player could be an upgrade and wouldn't cost an arm and a leg, then he might pull the trigger on a deal like that. |
I went to the zoo today. They had 1 dog. It was a Shitzu!!!

Just a thought. Why would any team want either of them? Bryan Bulaga I can see, maybe, but that's a stretch. James Starks would be more likely. He played at Buffalo. |

Jarius Byrd will not be traded to the Packers.
1) Davon House.
2) The fact that no team can extend Byrd until after the season comes to an end. |

2) The fact that no team can extend Byrd until after the season comes to an end. A similar situation worked out well for the Patriots and Aqib Talib. I remember several people here were blasting the Patriots for making that trade and saying the Patriots wouldn't be able to resign him to a contract extension and that he would leave after that season ended. As I expected, they resigned him and he is now a solid player for that team. Of course, the Packers don't take any risks like that, really, even if it meant potentially improving the team.
