This would be a good signing by the Packers. There were reports of Raji's workouts this off-season and it sounds like the dude is putting up some crazy weight. He was shining in training camp last year before his injury so if he can put everything together, he could really help the Packers run defense.

Cannot complain about a 1 year- $2 million deal...

I think players still get their full base salary still (where normally most of the money is) but lose the per game roster bonus money. According to spotrac.com  (which might update if Raji ever does official sign a new contract and lose this info) Raji's last year contract had $300,000 combined wrapped up in per game roster bonuses and since he didn't play a game he didn't get that money but might of gotten the rest of the $4 million.

There are often conditions that reduce player salaries in case of injury. No idea on Raji's.

You should be happy that if Raji resigns for $2 million per year deal that he reportedly turned down all the Packers others offers. I forget all the details but something like in early 2012, the Packers tried to get Rodgers, Matthews and Raji all to agree to multi year extensions... with Raji maybe being offered say 6 million per year or something... then last year they tried to sign him to a 2 year, 8 million deal (4 million per year) ... so 2 million would be a lot nicer than the others, that he chose not to sign.

I, of course, have been as much or more against Raji than anybody else. However, what I read about him showing some dedication to improvement in the off-season, etc., along with the fairly low dollar amount, along with the Guion question marks, all make me ........ let's just say less negative about the deal.

I hope he plays decent.

The worst thing would be if he went somewhere else and did well.

He turned it on last year in TC. Still deserves a shot to prove himself.

The jury remains out, but this is one thing ole Texas and I completely agree on: Raji has been a lazy turd and a very big disappointment.

dfosterf (22h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
